i prefer to think none regardless of what the odds say. a spider bite in the mouth or throat would be a terrible thing. who has had such a malady. few there are, i suspect.

None. Seriously, the idea that you swallow spiders while you sleep is an incorrect statistic designed to see how easily people believe incorrect statistics.

I don't know, but I've probably quadrupled my lifetime count since I moved into this apartment.

Nipple (Long story, well, maybe not that long)
Anyways I know you gulp instinctively if something small is in your mouth, I've pranked many a friend on sleepovers as a kid, not that unrealistic actually, and FREAKY, it's SPIDERS!

oh dear, I seem to have gotten hold of the wrong end of the stick (so to speak). I was referring to larger things but the reference to gulping instinctively still applies, so I am not entirely off subject.

I once read a random fact that on average we swallow 8 spiders per year. Also there was one about chocolate bars but I cant remember what it was. :-/ Stupid random facts that are useless.

lol well its no quantum physics, cant see how the number of spiders we consume per year helps. But I guess its not useless as I used it to answer your question. ;-)

there's always a positive somewhere in there...you just might have to look harder sometimes.

Extra protein? haha less spiders in the house? Yep I guess there could be some good reasons.

None, but I sure did get one too many spider bites.
Twice after partying I slept on the floor and I awoke to a big spider bite on my neck.
It wasn't fun for a week or so.

I heard somewhere that the average number was 8. I don't have stats to back that up, though.

There could have been a couple I was unaware of.
Hey, more protein, OK then.
