Wow, I was just trying to come up with some ways to guilt my girl into letting me get more pets. I guilted her into the first one. Just had to tell her that I've wanted a snake since before I could remember, and there hadn't been anything else I'd wanted for longer. But that was true, and now I have to make something up...

I hope this thread lasts awhile! Anyone else have any tips for manipulating friends and loved ones for the sake of the hobby?
