I hate spiders as it is...so the LAST thing I need to read about is the possiblity of swallowing them while you sleep!
"The average person swallows seven spiders a year." You know, I had heard that statistic hundreds of times and it always creeped me out, plus I had to wonder, why on earth would a spider decide to crawl into my mouth while I was sleeping? Does he think it looks like a good place to catch bugs?
Anyway, one day I decided to take matters into my own hands and find out if that were really true, and according to
Snopes.com , it's an urban legend!
That won't get rid of the obnoxious ads asking about it, but at least you can sleep a little easier knowing spiders aren't trying to commit suicide in your mouth...
