   Ok, is that a result of your firearm, or is your firearm more of a symptom of your other conditions?
   Trying to figure out cause and effect here.

   you jedi.

   
   Although it is true that I don't share everthing I know, seasonal traditions of peoples without contact with the outside world, isn't one of those things. Believe it or not, but there are things I don't know about. And I'm fairly certain I'm not jedi, that's one of the things I do know about.

   If I had an answer to that question, I would have included it in the part I quoted, and answered it. As I only had an answer to the question I quoted, that's what I gave. Seems pretty logical, doesn't it?

   On North Sentinel Island there's a tribe with no contact to the outside world, and if Google Earth is to be trusted, they don't seem to have any fields as the entire island is covered in jungle. Considering that they must eat something, chances are that they eat what they can find or catch.

   Nope, it belongs in the Theridiidae family (like the widows), so it traps its prey in webs. As for spiders robbing other spiders of their prey, right off the top of my head I can't think of any using that technique, but several species from several families hunt other spiders, the most interesting being Portia labiata.
   
   There's a video of P. labiata here:

   With a 20$ limit, I'd say your best bet would be a blowgun...
   
   Personally I'd recommend an airgun, but considering the various circumstances you've mentioned, I can't think of anything better.

   Well, if it was a Pholcus phalangioides there's no harm done, they're all over the place, and where I live they're actually an invasive species, so they should be fucked over royally at every opportunity given.
   
   But otherwise be nice to spiders.:)
