    The urban legend says the average person swallows EIGHT spiders a year, so he is only providing 12.5% of the fellow’s MDRS (Minimum Daily Requirement of Spiders)

    My niece believed this myth. I asked her how that number was determined. Did somebody watch a large number of people’s mouths while they slept every night for a year, watching for spiders, and then calculate an average?
