Beats flushing the live spider down the toilet and having it crawl back

Been there, done that.
Remember when you were a kid and thought there might be a monster down
there that wakes up when you flush the toilet?
There might be.


Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, let's burn up the stiff and get back on the
bus...
