I'd love to have a talking, horse-sized spider as a friend. ๐Ÿ™

I think you're underestimating how horrifying that would be, and how you're nothing but a snack to such a creature.

I just have to stay away from their nets and everything will be fine. Also, it would probably suffocate before it could kill me

She must give the best hugs, 8 legs holding you tight, those mandibles wrapping around your head as she nuzzles you

I think being an evil deity with a penchant for singing discordant melodies is a prerequisite for giant spider-friends.

It using the noisy pee funnel to fall asleep would even be endearing to me.

It's a reference from "Spaceman" with Adam Sandler. The spider-like creature in it shows an interest in the suction system for the bathroom in the space ship.

Here's the trailer: https://youtu.be/rNZ0xKaCdus

The pee funnel is literally a funnel attached to a suction hose that you pee into to keep the urine from floating away and into the atmosphere of the spacecraft.
