Today, I saw a large spider carry away the body of a dead spider in the bathroom. In my anthropology class, we learned one of the first signs of civilization is caring for the dead. First, they become civilized, and next, they take over. I will never sleep again. FML

BloodFaerie tells us more.

OP here and I find it really funny that the people without a frickin' sense of humour are calling *me* stupid. (Not to mention when said assholes appear to be illiterate...) Yes, I know it is probably going to eat it - seeing as next time I went in there the spider had gotten smart enough to stop and wrap up its dinner to make it easier to carry, lol. (Problem solving abilities now? hmmmmmm lol) And, let's see... I was obviously in college at one point, so I would hope some of you would realize that means I'm educated. Please learn to take a joke. I'm just happy I finally got an FML accepted. And, of all of them it was a joke about one spider carrying off a "wounded comrade". And I saw someone did allude to the fact I must have left the dead one as a warning to the others. Muahahahahaha. *AND* maaaaybe this was a carefully staged display on their part to turn the tables and send *ME* a warning that they won't be dealt with so easily - that there are always MORE. *shudders* Finally, the reason there are so many spiders? I live in the basement of this house out in rural North Georgia and this scene took place in the bathroom in the back corner of said basement. So... the spiders love it there.

I saw this post, word for word on facebook. like 5 years ago. I even shared it. So OP, your being happy about a FML being accepted. Congrats in getting an old joke in.

It was most likely going to eat it... lol don't worry.

Relax, OP. The larger spider is just going to eat the smaller one!

the joke flew over so many people's heads.

I shit you not: I remember reading this FML when it was first published, and it always stuck with me. So much so that one day about 2 or 3 years later I was in my ex's garden having a cigarette like the rebellious teen I was when I noticed a flower petal on the floor with dead ends in it, and it instantly reminded me of this and how freaky everything is.
