Alright /lit/, I was thinking; If a strider strides and a chider chides, then logically a spider must spide. But how do we define "spiding"? Is it something unique to spiders, or just an activity at which they excel? Is Spiderman just the man who spides?

No, you misunderstand the word "logically", just because 2 words in the English language follow that pattern doesn't mean that "logically" all nouns that end with -ider has verb that ends with -ide(s). Nice attempt at being clever though, I bet British comedians would eat up that shit.
