I keep coming up with answers (aber auf Englisch), all of them impolite, and followed with Ed McMahon going “HEY-Yo!”

I think it would probably just be Dauererektionspinne with the bite implied – though of course the spider already has its own name, being a Brasilianische Wanderspinne.

Interestingly, researchers are studying the venom as a possible new treatment for erectile dysfunction.

heh, often overheard from the VPs and VCs in the pharma industry: “So this might be the next viagra!?” Thus it’s not a bit surprising that the first thought upon any “Causes explosive diarrhea, a tendency to vote republican, and priapism” is “ka-ching!” (and “What’re the import restrictions on shipping deadly spiders!?” “…no problem! just send them to the lab in Hyderabad”)

So, uh, what is meant ahh, precisely by “dangerous erections”? I’m, errr, asking for a friend?

Reminds me of the BB story (at least I think I saw it here?) about a claymation kids show that starred a guy who’s err penis was infinitely extensible and controllable, prehensile etc? Red and white stripes were involved. From Europe…
