Not what the OP posted but....
Did anyone else close their eyes and keep scrolling? lol
I two front "legs" are actually palps. They are there for sensory purposes.
Edit: Seeing that SVTP is so fond of spiders. Why haven't we made the wasp the official SVTP mascot?

Weird, it's working for me... anyway I fixed it, used a different image-host.
:lol: I straight up laughed out loud at work. Your response was so pure it was priceless.
That spider is really cool though, the yellow body with the faded black legs is awesome. Looks huge though, like 4-5 inches :uh oh:

Got one of those around the back of my house. I've left it alone as those eat other spiders like Brown Recluse and Black Widows
FWIW it's about as big as my iPhone.
i snapped a pic the other day too outside of a house i was visiting. never seen anything like this before:
sorry for the low quality, iphone4 camera.

The spider the OP posted are all over Texas/Louisiana.
I've always heard them referred to as Banana Spiders, I believe they are also a type of golden silk orb-weavers.
They have really big and cool looking webs, when I was a kid we would throw grasshoppers into them and watch the spider spin it up into a cocoon.

Not to thread jack, but the speed test in your sig pic is nothing to what google has in place.......its coming. Hide your kids, hide your wife.
I've always heard them called garden spiders or orb weavers. I saw a guy walk into a web and one of those got on his head, it was hilarious watching him run and scream like a girl lmao

Is it me? Or does this one look like Wilfred Brimley? lol
I've got one on my back window, my wife wants me to kill it but after I told her it kills other spiders and wasps she was more than happy to leave it alone
