Reasons to kill a Jumping spider: he jumped in my face while we were going 190 on the highway and almost got us into a car crash. He also did charge for my hand whem we were in the parking lot
They're gorgeous/adorable/funny as heck.
I guess it makes sense that people find jumping spiders more tolerable though considering they tend not to skitter quite as much, don't build webs, and aren't "leggy," which is apparently the main trait most people dislike about normal spiders.
Also, found this and thought I'd share:

I'm actually somewhat curious now if jumping spiders raise their young at all (like wolf spiders), but so far all I've learned is apparently the males aren't just shakin' their bootys, they're actually creating a sort of song via vibrations for the female spider to listen to.
Yea I love spiders but one with skinny long legs kinda weird me out
And are you saying male spiders are more romantic than all the guys in my life combine!?
@rosalinas & @parisqeen
Lil, it depends a bit on your definition of "romantic," since, depending on the species, it can be a life of death situation, and even when it's not, it's not like he sticks around after. Still, they do put quite a bit of effort into securing mating rights in the first place.
Each "song" is unique from species to species and male to male. They HAVE managed to translate it into a format humans can hear, but it doesn't sound particularly melodic haha.
