What are some stupid things people have said you about snakes?

That it's perfectly okay to keep up to 5 ball pythons in the same 10 gallon glass tank, as long as its "hot enough" and you "feed each one every other day".

Yea, I get all those questions a lot too. But the main one is "is it venomous?" Yea, I'm holding a venomous snake while casually walking around my house. Really?

Just Saturday I was at a party and someone labeled me as "the guy who has a lot of snakes". A lady approached me later in the night and said "are you the one with all the snakes?" I had never met her before and laughed and told her I had lizards too.

The next thing out of her mouth was "you're not going to let them go outside are you? It's a big problem all over the US."

One guy at work also said "What are you going to do when it's too big to live in your house?" GAH

Everything else is people telling me lame made up stories about snakes. Even when I explain to them how the situation could never come about, they don't want to hear it and just call me crazy.

@SpartaDog, I doubt that guy even had a snake. No 1' barrier could contain a snake, especially a Burmese. He was probably just trying to sound cool and failed.

Haha, wow. Thats...just..wow.
