    you see they are actually plotting our demise when they are tucked away in their hides.

    It's always interesting when I ask people WHY they're afraid of snakes. They're always either stumped, blurting out incorrect facts/assumptions, or shrugging it off with something like "because they're snakes and they're gross, duh." :rolleyes:

    thats exactly what i hear every time, its like my mom, she always says "idk, their just gross", and i say "youve never even touched one, how do you know their gross?", its quite the pointless conversation really so i dont try anymore, at least shes accepting of them, she just wont touch them or anything

    This.
    When I had to move out from my old apartment to my parents' house, the only person I could trust to keep my Pin (and keep it a secret... My parents are ridiculously religious freaks and very close minded) was my sister, and when I asked her, she was like *insert a big number of swear words here* NO! So I asked her why.

    Her response: Idk, they gross me out, they're all slimy and stuff. And I told her, I'll bring it to you, and if it doesn't freak you out, you'll keep it. She accepted :D
    When I got to her apartment, she fell in love with my BP and nicknamed her "the earthworm" (the Pin was still a baby... Lol)

    People should also know that snakes are the symbol of fertility, life, and healing.
    This is why the medical and veterinary medicine logos contain snakes.

    The answer I always get is "Because they don't have legs!!" ... which makes no sense to me -.-
