How you jump from spiders and snakes to sex?!!!!!!

Well, I can understand snakes, but spiders!?

I fear you can give me just any subject and I can manage to twist into into sex somehow. Been single for too long and I guess it comes with that territory.

But on a more logical and fact based note: Snakes gather in pits to breed. Usually one female with 2 or more males. This is what a snake pit is, usually. It can also be a pit where they hibernated during winter, and are gathered in spring before the Sun is warm enough for them to take off in different directions.

Spiders however, do not breed in pits, as one female usually is more than satisfied with one male, and vice versa. Hence why I find this writer's block question flawed in more than one way.

Wow, all my listening to BBC radio shows online pays off! 'cause I know that there IS a spider that likes pits! ***GRIN***

Note two other flaws in the question: 1) it does not specify whether spiders/snakes are venomous/dangerous in any way, and 2) it only asks about critters in a pit, with nothing to state that the reader is to consider themselves in the pit with these critters.

It might be my English that does not recognise cellars as pits, but I see your point. :-D

And yes, the question is indeed flawed and in desperate need of more parameters.

Or it might be that I just happened to grow up in a house where the cellar could pretty much qualify as a pit. ;-)

P.S. In English "pit" = "hole in the ground (or in any surface)", so all cellars are, technically, pits but not all pits are cellars.
