    want to hear about any reptile/ snake nuisance issues you've been through

    In light of the responses I got last time, I've decided to post again. This time, I'm hoping you all would be willing to share some of your stories with me. I'm wondering if you know of or have been through any reptile or snake nuisance issues and you'd be willing to tell me about them. I'm trying to gather stories for research. Your responses would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I can see where this one is going...

    There is NO possible good outcome from anyone who keeps and loves reptiles if you deal with this person.

    If it's attention you want, chat her up. If it's sensationalism you're addicted to, contact her, If it's no concern of yours what anyone thinks of reptile keepers, contact her.

    However, IF you DO care about our hobby and our ability to keep those scaly friends of ours, avoiding ANY contact with her or any of her affiliates is HIGHLY recommended.

    Is it worth being screwed for a few minutes of TV time on a show that cares for nothing but ratings? I'd say no. Hopefully everyone here will too.

    One time, I had this critter bothering the hell out of me. It kept making all this noise and it wouldn't leave me alone. At first I couldn't figure out what the hell it was, cuz after all, what could possibly be THAT annoying? But then, after researching a little bit, I found out that as much as I hated to admit it, this pest was indeed human.

    Oh, you wanted one about ACTUAL snakes? Insert here a bunch of words that would likely get me kicked off the site.

    My snakes have taken over. They are using my dwelling as a central hub to command a starfleet of intergalactic serpents. I'm sure this counts?

    You might as well go else where, or better yet don't make this show. Everyone here is sick of TVs that show reptiles in a bad light which seems to be exactly what you are looking for. We have enough trouble with the media without you helping to create more.
