Poisonous snakes - A pet peeve of mine.

One of my pet peeves is whining...

I'll spare everyone the pain of a thread about it though. :D

How I feel when I correct someone (on snakes especially) and they actually listen:

It's one thing if they just don't know correct terminology. It's another thing if you/someone else corrects them and then they just keep doing it...

When I'm asked if my snakes are poisonous, I just reply "Don't know, I've never eaten one of them."

Well if you ate a rattlesnake and it bit the inside of your stomach you would die. There. Bam! Poisonous.

Lol nah it annoys me too. Its on about the same level for me as ppl using the wrong "too/ to," minor annoyance.

There are poisonous snakes...

"The two exceptions are: the Rhabdophis keelback snakes secrete poison from glands they get from the poisonous toads they consume, and similarly, certain garter snakes from Oregon retain toxins in their livers from the newts they eat.[12]

But I must say, that it does bother me that so many people call venomous snakes like vipers, poisonous..
