Re: Tell me your stories!

He messaged me first a few weeks prior on facebook, telling me how he was looking into getting a pet snake, asking me about which species would be best for him, how my species are, all kinds of info, etc etc... It was pretty convincing, so I just went with it. He asked if he could meet my ball pythons and dumeril's boa in person, so I said sure. And this was planned like two weeks in advance too.
So when the day came, I packed up Cake, Yukon, and Vigil and drove them to our old school parking lot. He meets them, holds them and looks at them for literally 2 minutes max, doesn't even ask me questions about my snakes, and goes "So have you had lunch yet?"... lol. I'm like bruh, I brought my snakes, I need to bring them home. AND I already had lunch. He didn't seem seriously interested in my snakes at all once meeting him in person, it was just a waste of time and my snakes time.
And that's on top of the fact that he randomly tells me, "You know, I killed a rattlesnake last week. So I'm pretty sure I can handle any snake now!" ... as if telling me, who has pet snakes, that you intentionally took the life of an animal is a good thing? And taking life is totally the same as caring for life, right?
ETA: Sorry, I totally thought this was in the off-topic cafe forum LOL. But there's ball pythons involved, so. =P
That dude is a slime bucket.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
