Hey Galen

Thanks for stopping by and reading it even with your immense dislike of snakes - I don't blame you with having many more lethal ones in your country.

Sinking into holes with snakes in them is ill advised at the best of times. Why would you do that to that poor snake? Shame he had just redecorated and you totally smashed his new settee. I'm not surprised he went off to mope.
But in all seriousness, you are really freaking lucky you stood on it's head or you would have been tickets.

Pythons are pretty cool. They are generally so docile, but you also don't want that thing to fang you. I'm not surprised it didn't help you get past the urge to just rather not lol. Go look up Python Cowboy on YouTube, he hunts them (and other invasives) for a living in Florida and the everglades, you might actually enjoy his channel.

Cryptotoxic venom - ROFL, this is totally worthy of a meme! But to be honest, a Puff Adder is probably my least favourite. They strike so fast they can pierce a balloon 7 times before it actually pops.

Shot for always reading my ridiculous life stories and sharing yours, it's always a joy to read your comments.

Have a good one.

Sort:  

It wasn't my finest moment I'll be honest and whilst I've had many moments since concerned with destroying the snake's new redecoration I've had many more in respect of my own well-being...This wasn't a pleasant episode for me. I lived though.

Go look up Python Cowboy

Says andrastia to dude who doesn't like snakes. If it's all the same I'll just go look up toasted cheese sandwiches instead. Safer.

Fuck those bastards!

This was a good post, interesting and well written; a pleasure to take a look. Thanks for taking the time.

Lol your comments always make me laugh. Ok, you go look up videos of toasted cheese sandwiches then (you're missing out btw).

Have a great day G-dog

I'm happy to bring you a laugh; beats the alternative. Too many out there willing to bring someone down without me adding to it.

I'll probably look they video up, my curiosity won't allow me not to.
