Kinda has to do with BP's, but it's more of a rant so I figured the Off-Topic area would be better.

Today's feeding just turned into such a fiasco. Decided that I was tired of taking care of the couple of feeder mice that we've had around in case one of the pythons refuses F/T for whatever reason, so I got everything out and prepped to feed to my smaller male (female is already pounding small rats, so he was the best candidate for disposal of rodent xD ). The problem is that my boyfriend's new roommate decided to have six or seven people over, as he has every single night since he moved in, so I was having to do this in the most secluded part of the house I could find in order to keep a huge deal from happening (big help that did...).
As I opened the tub and offered the mouse up for Monty, one of the boneheaded people happened to walk into the office and then shout to everyone else to come and watch -.-' I'm then surrounded by a mix of people who start either getting excited to watch or freaking out about a mouse dying, and one of the idiots tries to come over and grab the freaking mouse! At this point I'm flabbergasted by what he's doing, but ready to grab him when he comes in arm's reach for both the snake's safety and his. Thankfully roommate and roommate's lady friend kept him back (whether it was because I was ready to punch this guy in the face and was showing it or because they figured it was a good idea, I don't know). A few tense minutes of zombie mouse dance and half the people leaving, Monty decides he's hungry.
They left after the recently living mouse was struck, and I went on to just give my female her rat and put them back on their shelf. Now that I've got it typed out it doesn't sound too intense, but I'm still shaken/furious that someone tried to put themselves into a situation where they'd get bit by my BPs and it'd be their boneheaded move but I'd take the fall for it. Hindsight says I should've just stopped the feeding altogether and cleared them out when they came over, but really I was so shocked and unprepared that I suppose my judgement slipped. Being told I'm performing animal cruelty and making the world a worse place really helped too

Blarg, I just wish I had the point of view gun from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie. Tired of having to worry about the chance of misconceptions costing me my snakes I just don't want to deal with whatever legal and personal complications could've happened if that guy had gotten bit and decided to take action for it
