2 or 3, depends on whether the spider wants to wear high waist or low waist pants.

[–] Nounka@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

I prefer to see 1. But logic would be a 2 imo

[–] philthi@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago

As an arachnaphobe, somehow makes them much more tolerable

Pants are the shackles of the patriarchy

I feel like we need c/humansdrawingspiders.

Back four legs and bottom half of the butt covered

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

The first two ones won't work because spider legs don't attach at the abdomen.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Should we try with a dress then?

[–] tobogganablaze@lemmus.org 3 points 7 months ago

I have never imagined that before. So thanks for that.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe it has something to do with romance language.

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

probably. though sometimes things like that change even between romance languages (i dont have an example tho since i don't speak any other romance languages)

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

if the illustrations were drawn correctly, the response would be 1

spid

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 4 points 7 months ago

Quelqu'un avait déjà fait cette remarque dans le post d'origine. Je n'en attendais pas moins de !spiders@lemmy.world

[–] UrPartnerInCrime@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

Yeah, but it should be the 4 back legs, not just the 2

Equal hands and feet

[–] recursive_recursion@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago

I dunno why but this gives me generic dad vibes lol

[–] LordGimp@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I think we can all agree that three is absolute collyswaddle and should be discounted going forward.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 2 points 7 months ago

Maybe but you will have to explain me what collyswaddle means first.

I see spiders more in the long and colourful stockings department.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You convinced me just by mentioning it. I see stripes!

[–] hsdkfr734r@feddit.nl 2 points 7 months ago
