Funny story: soon after getting Cake, one of my producers who apparently hates snakes immediately proceeded to tell me the recent news about a guy kissing his pet cottonmouth on the mouth, and getting bitten in the face. He showed me a video of the guy at the same time and kind of just waited for my reaction.
Yeah, ball pythons are totally a venomous species and I would need to care.
A few minutes after that, one of my coworkers asked me in a VERY serious way, "Have you seen the movie Anaconda?"
Me: "No..."
Coworker nods gravely, "You should see it."
Because my 5 foot ball python is totally an anaconda and watching a hollywood stereotype is going to suddenly make me hate snakes, as if I'm not aware of what kind of animal they are?
(spamming more stories- I'll show myself out now.)
