Adorable Jumping Spider Faces

Ugly Overload normally focuses on ugly critters, but the face of this little guy won me over. He looks like he’s smiling. Jumping spiders are really interesting and don’t worry, they’re too small to hurt you.

    I love jumping spiders. They have always been easy going, as spiders go. If you need to move them out of the house, they never seem to mind that you are scooping them into a glass. Other spiders get all cranky and have attitude, when I try to do that.
    And they are cute.

    Too cute! It looks like a cartoon and reminds me of the spider in Madagascar that says “get it! get it!” when they are in the jungle

    I actually said aloud “OMG It’s SO CUTE!!!” and started to giggle….
    Never would’ve thought I’d be saying that about a spider, but, there it is… that spider is frackin adorable!…. just don’t crawl/jump on me

    one adorable jumping spider is too small to hurt you but 1million tiny furry arachnids will do you in

    Valid question: why does something being cute make it better? It just looks better, it isn’t necessarily really any nicer, sweeter or more beneficial. What gives?

    I’m wondering if that smiling spider pic you posted is photoshopped. It only has two eyes showing. If you follow the link it appears a similiar spider has more eyes on the front. The smile is also reversed. These are adorable pics though. I love them.

    Those maybe jumping spiders but we get Wolf Jumping Spiders here that get about 1.5ft across and jump about 3-6ft.

    I’m going to have to call photopshopped, too.

    And zav, anything cute has to be good for you.
