Here are some pics i found funny

Second one. It's unfortunate but if you're born into an overpopulated country, living below the poverty line (if it's even defined), there are not many choices for you. People are forced to do things that we can't see ourselves in.

I'd lived in such a place so I know some of this. Like some of those people could be starving students try to make it home for New Year or something. Or some of them try to make a living to feed themselves and their family.

It's nice to be sitting in comfortable carpeted room, on our padded chair, our point fingers 'dat's som crazy shit son!' or 'pwned' or 'haha' like Nelson in The Simpsons. Truth is most of us probably haven't experienced a day of that.

Come ride the subway in Boston, either on the Green Line on Sox game day, or the Red Line/anywhere near the hub on a 3-day weekend at rush hour. I would SO love to be able to sit on the roof or hang out a window.

wtf is that a spider in the last pic

The spider pic throws a lot of people off.
Look how close it is to the camera.
Look at the size of the guy's boot.
This picture seems to be cropped, but I remember another one you could see the guy's palm holding the spider and you see it really is not that big.

define big?

From the pictures at the bottom of the wiki page, they are as long as a foot; their bodies are as long as rats. That's huge as far as spiders are concerned.

That last pic is two spiders jointed. Went over that pic when studying arachnids in Zoology.

ya last 2 is one hanging off another
camel spider, peeps in Iraq have to deal with em

If I saw one of those spiders I would've fainted.

Yeah not only is it two spiders together but they are all up in the lens of the camera making them seem much more impressive.
Sure I would not want one of those within 100 feet of me, but the pic throws everyone off...

Well they do have guns..

Correct me if Im wrong, but IMO the people on top of the train are ridin' for free

I wonder what speed that train goes.
Is it just like a slow choo choo, or a high speed train going like 200mph.
I'd like to see people on top of a french TGV or one of those japanese trains. Lol.
Gotta have very strong grip

Camel spiders are scary..... imagine being a soldier sleeping in the dirt and waking up to one of those spiders on you o.o

Sort of a sub-specise of both
