Number three seems like the equivalent of assless chaps. I vote two

[–] Phineaz@feddit.org 40 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I vote three, for the exact same reason.

All chaps are assless. That’s why they’re chaps and not pants

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I think of the assless part as depending on whether the individual has chosen to wear a layer underneath the chaps.

2 is normal cut trousers, 1 is low cut. 3 is spider chaps

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Part of the problem here is that's a lore inaccurate spider. It shows most of the legs attached to the abdomen, when all eight legs and the pedipalps are all attached to the cephalothorax.

I very don't. I'm a pretty serious arachnophobe. But you know what they say, know thy enemy. Their chest is also their head.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So I think a spider would Donald Duck it and wear a shirt but no pants.

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Something between 1 and 2. I tend to see four legs as true legs, the other four as arms. Like this:

Legs on the ground, arms up.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

depends on the spider. this one I agree but some of those orb guys are all legs

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

Even for some orb weavers there's a clear distinction between "front legs"=arms and "back legs"=legs. At least for me.

A week or two ago, I posted about a classic spider blowjob gif.

Perhaps you should scroll through my comment history.

I assume pants are supposed to cover reproductive organs as well as legs, so 2.

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately.

[–] Maultasche@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

2 looks like a Tachikoma

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

The question is not "how". The question is "why".

  1. Short shorts
  2. Pants
  3. Assless chaps
[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

ALL CHAPS ARE ASSLESS! GOODNIGHT!

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly, I'm just occasionally concerned with normal spiders "wearing" my pants right before I try to put them on.

To all the arachnophobes that read this: I'm very sorry.

[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)
  1. makes the most sense to me, because I anthropomorphize things alot.
  2. would make the most sense to a scientist. (Can't recall the name for a spider specialist)
  3. would make the most sense if the spider was also a rapper and/or part of an inner city gang

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No no it is obviously spiderist.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Spiderist sounds more like someone who discriminates against spiders.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sign ne up those freaks have 8 legs. Leave some shoes for the rest of us.

Damn spiders invading our homes and taking all our shoes and hunting all our flies. And then they have rhe gall to just set up camp in a corner of a room?! Um hello you got a permit for that web mister or will I have to call the cops on ya????

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Stop being spiderist, arachnids are people too!

[–] lemmyng@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

Ever seen a spider molting? It's practically 2.

[–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Agreed, spiders are notoriously free spirited

[–] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That's why I hang out with spiders instead of people

[–] CallMeMrFlipper@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Aka, Harlots!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Number two, unless it's a slutty spider. Then number one.

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

1 is the old disgusting drunk that is shirtless and almost bursting out of his jeans

2 is as normal as it can look

3 is very seductive 😏😏

[–] shasta@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Since its main purpose is to cover your genitals, none of the above.

If it is just to protect the legs then 2 or 3 does the job, but 2 looks impossible to create in reality unless you sew it around the spider. Maybe we are assuming the spider spins this around itself with its webs so maybe that will work.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I saw (I think) the original instance of this meme.

Every time I forget it, another evolution of it pops up.

I love it.

Spiders wear onesies.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think somewhere between 2 and 3. 3 looks weird because the spider's ass is uncovered (it's like if your pants ended at the crotch) and 2 looks more like a spider jumpsuit or pants pulled over the belly.

2 looks like a the head of a dick poking out

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It would have to be 3 unless 1 and 2 had holes in the back or no spider web.
