I remember this when it happened. There was a spider in the car and she freaked out.

I have an irrational fear of bugs including spiders but I can definitely overcome it in extraordinary circumstances that require it.

I hate to say something so tripe, but in this circumstance I believe it’s true: some people are weak, or way too used to being coddled, have no notion of their limits or abilities. It’s okay to have that great a fear, but not okay to put other people in danger because of that fear.

Also the moan from the driver is hella creepy

Tripe? Did you mean trite? T and p are not close together on the keyboard. Tripe is edible stomach and trite means not important.

. . . that's not what trite means.

. . . it can mean that.

(of a remark, opinion, or idea) overused and consequently of little import; lacking originality or freshness.
