Nope jumping spiders are the worst kind. So are big fuzzy spiders.
They're not insectlike, but in some weird uncanny valley between insect and mammal.
And they can JUMP onto you.
Nope nope nope.

They will play 'catch the laser dot' with you like a cat does or even do little mating dances when you prop a mirror in front of them.
YouTube has many videos of such activities
Have a bit of fun with them next time you see one and your next encounter will not be so unpleasant!
