Do you like snakes?

Fuck snakes and this thread D:

No embedded snake pictures here, please and thanks.

Snakes are cool, but we don't get the lethal ones here so they don't bother me at all. If we did get the lethal ones I'd probably carry a sword with me everywhere I go.

 

[nageov3t]

only trouser snakes.

 

[qliveur]

We have quite a few blacksnakes around here.

Very useful in keeping the local rodent population in check.

 

[lxskllr]

Define like. I like the fact they're around, but I also like the fact that there's no extremely venomous snakes near me. As long as they leave me alone, I leave them alone, and I don't pick them up. I did that once, and got bitten. I guess I don't know how to do it right.

I voted like.

Is some dude going to explode in your mouth tonight?

 

[eits]

where's the "fuck no" option?

 

[Dumac]

I love snakes. Great creatures...I've had many pet snakes as a kid and I'm thinking about getting one as an adult sometime...

 

[Jaskalas]

No qualms with genocide against pit vipers. Cats can easily handle that part of the food chain.

Loophole...

 

[Balt]

Don't like them. One of the few things that creep me out.

I leave them alone, though.

 

[darkswordsman17]

I like turtles.

I like turtles.

I like snakes, they are great for keeping that skank Taylor Swift off my lawn. (bitch just won't leave me alone. )

You saying "fuck my thread"?

This little guy was happily sleeping under the solar oven. Ain't bothering nobody but the packrats.

I'm as accommodating as the next guy, but there are two things that I cannot abide on my property:

1) yellow jacket or hornet nests

2) venomous snakes


It's just too damned easy to accidentally (or drunkenly) stumble upon, and get seriously fucked up by, either one for me to peacefully coexist with them.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

I like snakes, have kept several as pets. They're great creatures, those who fear them just don't understand them.

 

[ch33kym0use]

Not really.

 

[D1gger]

Ooh you!

I'm also not a fan of house centipedes. Yes they're nice little predatory critters, but they lack boundaries, and they also enjoy leaping at me from the ceiling.

Spiders unfortunately must die as well, unless it's a particularly large one that is amenable to capture.
1) They hatch out egg sacs, and then the babies climb up to the top of my dining room chairs and cast out silk lines in the hopes of catching a breeze to some distant land.
2) They also know no boundaries, and will sometimes try to join me in bed.

If I could, I would gladly set up a treaty with some of these predatory arthropods: They can patrol the house for unwanted things, provided that they do not ever climb on me, they stay out of my bed, and that they remain at least 4 feet from me at all times, unless there's a wall between us. There is also to be the understanding that if any of these provisions are violated at any time, or if they bite me for any reason, their existence will abruptly and violently end.

At least snakes aren't gross. We returned from today's outing to find a lump of foul smelling ickiness splattered atop a boulder in the front yard. Upon investigation we found it to contain hair, rib bones, and internal parts. We washed it off the boulder to the ground where the ants should have it disposed on the morrow. This evening while watering plants in the backyard my wife notes a dead smell in the area of the agaves. Being the curious type we seek out the source of the stench. Behold we did a dead rabbit. We were certain of its demise as 1) it smelled like buzzard puke and 2) its little head, ears and all, were located to the aft of the torso, severed completely from same. While we prepared its final resting place below grounds we pondered the fowl creature that could have done in said bunny. Our primary suspect is the red tail hawk with a second possibility being an owl. Since the deed was done during the day shift we are leaning toward the red tail. In either case, not a snake.

Edit: no pics.

I don't "hate" them or "like" them (and I don't like Taylor Swift at all). I would never own one...or want one in my house/yard. But I don't think they are gross or anything. Spiders on the other hand...
