But, then this woman added that she had a BP and she would definitely recommend against it because of the danger of being choked to death in your sleep! To back her warning up, she added that she had a BP that's 3' long (wow!) and he can already choke her when she puts him around her neck.

I posted some not-to-friendly reply trying to set the record straight and - you know what - it didn't make any difference. That's the sad thing - most ignorant people are just fine with their ignorance. sigh....
Wait, its okay to sleep with a ball python? >_> I mean I wouldn't be worried about it choking me [lame reason] but I would worry I'd smash the poor guy. LOL
