Most of my friends are not scared of snakes but none of them seem interested in them. If i start to talk about them they just try to change the subject of something. Ive only met a handful of people that i can actually talk to about snakes. Ive had several people ask me if im scared it will kill me. Mostly it happens when i take my snake to "pick" his dinner and people at the petstore ask the weirdest things.
