    Real Life Ouroboros

    See my avatar?

    it's an endless gif of a serpent going around in a perfect loop, eating/biting it's own tail i think. i've been told that this is Ouroboros or Jörmungandr to some.

    anyway this just happened in real life!







    lol a Stimson's Python got trapped in it's own shed and went around in circles for 3 hours. it slithered out of it's tail only to slither into the mouth of it's own shed. lol poor python.

    RIP Mamba

    Oh that is hilarious yet I feel bad for finding it funny! Speaking of The Great Serpent I'm rereading WoT for like the hundredth time.

    That is too weird/cool! 3 ours tho...

    Is there a symbolic meaning?

    One time I found Valentine's shed in a ball inside her rock hide...kind of the opposite of this...it was if she tucked the shed back into itself.

    Mine almost always seem to shed theirs in a rolled up ball. I think it's just to make me unroll it so I can make sure everything came off.

    I LOVE that series, no one I know likes fantasy and won't read it. Also the video was the first thing that I came home to, (my fiance likes to leave funny videos/pic on my laptop so I'm in a better mood when I get off work
    No cage is too large - nature is the best template - a snoot can't be booped too much

    Wow, that is so crazy!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.
