What are the strangest bp myths you have heard?

I think it is ridiculous that people will own a 100 pound dog with huge canines and think its cool, but are terrified that a 6 pound snake might bite! I'd MUCH rather get bit by my snakes (which has NEVER happened), than get bit by a dog! yet dogs are socially accepted, serpents are "evil".

I know! Dogs as a species have many more cases of lethal aggression than ball pythons and other commonly kept snakes. Yet even my friends are afraid to touch Fírnen because "he looked like he was going to bite" ��

Edit: I'm not even sure that there are any cases of lethal ball python aggression lol

I can easily argue a dog looks like he's/she's gonna bite. I was aggressively approached by two Rottweiler's (I love the breed though, no hate)... almost had to call 911 being smaller and alone outside on the street. I got them to go home, but still, I did NOTHING to them-I didn't even approach them they came to me- and they showed every sign of dog aggression you can see in a short period of time. Snakes, however, I've found only really strike for a reason, most of the time an obvious one.
