What do you like about snakes as pets?

[STEW]

Partly because so many people hate and fear them. Cats and dogs are so archetypal and boring.

My dogs are awesome, they make me laugh always doin some retarded crap that just makes me say "why"..... Im not even sure how to pin point what I like about snakes.... its just something about them that makes me want to have a bunch.

I explain that it's like having a beautiful fish aquarium - but at least my snakes don't die if I hold them.

I have a display aquarium and fish to me, are just decorations that eat and require a lil attention to keep em breathing..... If one dies, big deal. The only fish that seem like they know who you are would be Oscars IMO.... I had one of them jump tank and I was almost upset for like a whole minute..... If one of my snakes died, that would be terrible and would bother me for reals.
