Spiders Are Cute began when Syarith, the 142nd member of Nintendo Rocket, joined NR. He loved to express his opinion on spiders a lot throughout various parts of the forum, and it wasn't until recently declared that the supposed 'joke' of the phrase was never funny, when it was never meant to be funny and it was never a joke. It was serious and Syarith's true opinion. He always has thought spiders are cute and always will, and always had to let it be known on Nintendo Rocket and other forums that spiders are cute. It was also declared recently by Morendo that the phrase is old and he should stop saying it because it's practically a dried up internet meme.
