You owe me a thumb. She drove in to get me, since I required a ride home, due to one boot nearly falling off all day and now being held on with dried blood and duct tape. She met Man-Cat, and refused to go inside the adoption room itself. She just stared at it through the window and said "No. It will eat the dog and your cat. Or you, in your sleep."

Water doesn't kill spiders man.

You know what also doesn't kill spiders? 6 months of starvation, missing limbs, and most legal chemicals don't kill them, just fuck with their tiny anger powered brain and make them madder and more aggressive.

Actually it's more complex than that.

Spiders only have muscles to move their legs inward, to pull their limbs to the body, so to speak.
When they want to stretch their legs, they have to pump fluid into the leg and it gets bent straight by the pressure alone.

That's the reason spiders turn into theses handy packages when they die.

Besides, some of the things in this thread, I would be afraid to only wing them and leave them wanting revenge.

Boy, when she told me that story it send shivers down my spine... it even still does today.
But as for your theories, I had similar thoughts with a radio clock going out of synch, however one question remains:
What made the clock go out of synch at that specific time?

You say it was around 4 AM. Most radio clocks don't continually check in order to save battery life, and instead usually check every 30 mins to 1 hour, usually on the hour. The clock may have been slightly slow and been losing time, but not enough to trigger the radio re-set on the previous checks, and when it hit 4 it realised it was a few seconds too slow and re-set itself.

I still like the idea of it being paranormal in explanation though.

And, furthermore, do hospitals have radio clocks? Since they flip their shit if you turn on your mobile just for a quick game of angry birds while you wait for granny to croak, maybe radio clocks would fuck with their avionics or whatever the fuck. What am I, a scientist? Get off my lawn, you kids.

only partially.

They move slowly by using very small internal muscles, but to go fast like when they murder stab their prey, they use the hydrolic pressure of their own BLOOD to speed up their movements.

Well, it was some strange time like 4:37 or something when it happened, so hell if I know.

I don't believe in ghosts so I guess it's a mundane thing like the clock desync but still... the timing is just made for being creepy as shit...

And as some bright man once said: "Whoever disregards unexplainable phenomenons and paranormal things as unscientific is indeed acting unscientific himself."

I think you may be looking at the problem in a conventional idea.

Perhaps the old man had become synchronized to the clock itself, and as it lost time, so was he. His heartbeat, for lack of other stimuli, takes on the metronomic tendencies of the clock's "ticking".

When it was prepared to lose its metaphorical shit, so did his internal biorhythm.

See? Not entirely scientific, not entirely supernatural, and it sounds kind of nifty.

Every city has that one crazy guy who everyone recognizes and has a nickname for.
My city has (as I call him) The Beardy Arab. He's a slightly fat homeless middle eastern man. He's got a HUGE osama-style beard and an equally impressive hobo-fro.

Thing is, I see him all the fucking time. Usually he's in the corner of a crossing, staring into the beyond with a calm and enlightened expression. He's fond of popping into existence as soon as I think of him. I've seen him chill in the lobby to the cinema, riding on a bike the other side of town, and drinking found milkshakes as I passed him. He's always wearing that peaceful sagely expression.
