Because art imitates life

The bible, it is part of Christian mythology.

They're not.

See monster girl whatever it's called.

Snakes/serpents are historically seen as evil in many cultures

because humanity has an ingrained fear/hatred of snakes. They're lumped together with spiders and other creepy-crawlies in the caveman part of your brain that tells you what will kill you with sneaky poison.

Name 1 game where snakes are evil
And i mean evil evil, as in a snake kills your whole family and then bites your dick evil

>why x are y?

Why do I keep seeing this sentence structure? Is it a meme?

because a snake can kill you

people fear what has the potential to kill them

What a fine, dapper young gentleman.

>because humanity has an ingrained fear/hatred of snakes
This. They're an easy terror, so they're easy to turn into a villain. People don't object to an evil snake the same way they might to an evil dog or evil cat.

>Name 1 game where snakes are evil
Pretty much any game with an Ouroboros reference. There are plenty of snake-robots in the Mega Man series. XCom most recently had one. I'm sure they've shown up in Might & Magic, as well.

>There are plenty of snake-robots in the Mega Man series.

1. Snake Man
2. ...?

The enemies on Snake Man's stage?

sneks are love

Because they're pure evil.

Aladdin

>he believes that all sneks are dangerous just because some of them can attack and even a few are venomous, even though most snakes are dormant by default

Because they are incapable of feeling affection

Snake Man
SnakeMan.EXE
Hyleg Ourobockle
Ouroboros in MMZXA, to make the other reference as well.

I thought there was one in the MMX series also, although I don't recall one right off hand.

>Implying you wouldn't

Why are you so mean to the poor snekies user?

You're putting words in his mouth

furfag plz go

Snakes don't have fur retard

Dark souls

Snakes lack a cortex so they're unable to have feelings.

neither has your crotch

So do souls reside in the cortex then?

they reside in the pineal gland

>tfw no game where you can worship a giant snake

Faggots like you are the reason it's so hard to avoid your shitty fetishes when I'm looking up porn. "Oh it's not furry it's anthro, Oh it's not anthro it's etc etc etc."

Fuck you, you know it's a lump term but you try to avoid the stigma by saying you're not furry, even though you're doing the thing furries are hated for: spreading your shitty fetish wherever you like and acting like you should be accepted even though everyone who isn't a part of your whack off club hates your guts. I hope you die by salmonella you cunt.

Ultima 7: The Serpent Isle involves going to a place where everyone there worships the aspects of the three serpents. And it turns out they are correct.

And it's never brought up again in the sequels.

snakes are nowhere near as creepy or repulsive as spiders though
i don't understand why people have the same reacions to snakes or rodents that i would usually associate with things like spiders

>Most recently
Nah man, XCOM has had evil snakes from day 1

This thread again? if you're looking for fetish validation go to /d/.

Post non evil snek

It's no use arguing, at this point "it's not furry it's X" is nothing but a meme.

...

Sneks a shit birbs a best.

I want to fuck that snake

I fucking hate snakes but I don't understand how people can be repulsed by spiders, when there's one in my room I take it in my hands to put it elsewhere

Best music in the game.

...

The same way I hate spiders but am okay with snakes.

It's beyond your control (for the most part) and it's just hardwired into your brain like that.

...

Is Cred Forums aware that reptiles do not have any emotions?

They only know fear and safety.

Because snakes are literally evil

You sound upset

you misspelled hungry

>Christian mythology
>mythology
Do you know any sites I can purchase a nice fedora my good gentleman?

Say that after watching a youtube video of the biggest spider in the world or a youtube video of a wolf spider.

oh boi.......

Sleep tight, pupper.

What?

is he okay

As long as you don't try to kill it, a spider won't fuck with you. Spiders are bros.

>purposely leave snake hungry
>put a small animal in front of hungry snake
>hungry snake eats small animal

It's the owner's fault for putting a puppy in front of an unfed serpent. Humans are evil.

You're using the fedora mean in the exact opposite way it was meant for.

Sleep tight, pupper.
Sleep tight forever.

What do you think retard?

Everythings evil and edgy in those games, that hardly counts

Clearly you've never met Australian spiders

I think you're rude.

noooo pupper

Hes fine

Spiders are ugly, remove spiders.

Nice try, spiderposter.

>And it's never brought up again in the sequels.
That was because Ultima 8 was terribly rushed (and was on a completely different planet) while Ultima 9 was remade so many times that nobody working on the earlier games was even around when the final product was produced.

Fair enough. I'm not very familiar with XCOM. I just know about the recent noise the serpent unit in XCOM 2 received.

sneks are pretty chill when they're not hungry

Moniter and tegu lizards do.

Wtf I hate snakes now

...

Aww, thats adorable.

And when they are theyll turn on you and swallow you whole. They literally dont care about anything except their own hunger

St. Paddy had the right idea, remove snek

That's a python tho

...

Wow what a pussy

You shouldn't, what that anti-snek propaganda doesn't show you is that pupper was in fact a bad pupper. The snek was simply doing puppers everywhere a service by preserving the reputation of the good puppers of the world.

Shedden's first wife had left him because he was spending too much time with the crocodile. "Once the crocodile followed me home, and came to me whenever I called its name, I knew it could be trained," noted Shedden. "Another wife I could get. Pocho was one in a million."

What a hero

I know. Applies to insects as well.

Snakes are not very interesting because of that.

>cut the head off a garter snake back when I was a sociopathic 12-year-old
>the head still moves

Reminds me of my favorite scene from The Fly

How old of a sociopath are you these days, nonny-poo?

Tell us how buttblasted you really are

JUST

You can do this because you have the luxury of not living in a part of the world where common spiders will fuck you the hell up.

Try this shit in Australia.

>That feel when no lizardbro to play vidya with

because snakes are generally evil, snakes eat their own eggs

It literally says the crocodiles brain could've been damaged

>you will never get stomped on by this beautiful specimen
it hurts to live......

If you watch this closely you can see the snakes head is nearly cut off entirely after the first stomp

Literally zero citations.

Because snakes are one of the major phobias in the human population, probably up there next to spiders. Some people just can't get over their fears.

That's a nice hat

Fun fact: evolutionary biologists speculate we have such an irrational fear of snakes and spiders genetically encoded in us because we use to live in trees

That armadillo looks so scared though.

furries usually broadcast that they'r furries it's kinda of a normie tumbr fetish, my bro is a damn normie he didn't even know what furry fandom is and telling furries this, ferries that etc, but when i asked do you even know what furry con is he, said it is a kind of event where you fuck random people, i was surprised than i found out he just saw a funny post on facebook and he didn't even got the reference about furry con and was trying to fit in, that explains that it's kind of a normie fetish which normally appear on Facebook and tumblr too and furries really broadcast the fact that they are furries, a new way to satisfy their insecurity, so its just a weird group, and you do know normal fags want to become part of everything to satisfy their insecurity, and furry fandom is for normalfags who want to stand out more in their social forum and tell everyone " hey i really love furry fandom," and other guy asks "hey whats furry" and he answers "its a complex art form you probably don't know (feeling really cool and hipster)"

W-why are its eyelashes so long?

Actually let me go back and say that both animals looks scared for some reason

Because the snake is cuddling it the same way a pedo cuddles a child. That user is an idiot or a snake spreading snake propaganda. Dont be fooled, snakes are evil

>armadillo
Nigga what

>snake
>giant rat buck tooth
why

That would make sense except for the loads of people that don't have an irrational fear of snakes and spiders. Do they have any reason that people have any other irrational fear of random ass shit?

>the loads of people that don't have an irrational fear of snakes and spiders
Probably got genes from ancestors that evolved in a different setting.

>greek religion is mythology
>but not christianity that's the one real one!

What loads of people? The vast majority of the population has one of if not both of these fears

Because alien. It isn't related to terrestrial snakes at all.

snakes are subhuman

>human with scales
>not a naga
fucking dropped

So let's say someone has a irrational fear of clowns. What setting did their ancestor evolve in? Or someone with a fear of toenails? Or a sticky feeling on your hands? Or the fear of the sun? These fears aren't genetics but simple conditioning from a bad experience during their childhood.

>Vast majority
>less than 10% of people in America have a phobia
And not all of these people are scared of spiders or snakes

I can only assume that sounded far more clever in your head.

Bloodborne, God of war series

Don't care, would that

Is that a woman snek or snek woman?

>less than 10% of people in America have a phobia
Youre telling me that fewer than 1 in 10 people freak out or even feel scared when they find a spider in their house? I can tell you from experience thats not true

What bird is this?

BUY ME SOME GAMES BRO

Was Madara really all that evil? It was a good snake for a while it seemed, it just got blood drunk like any other hunter did.

source?

Thank you for that list of evil snakes in games.

>So let's say someone has a irrational fear of clowns. What setting did their ancestor evolve in
Dont know, could be of exaggerated features that look kind of predatory. Its only speculation, its not certain. And its definetly not certain or proven that phobias only come from childhood experiences

>muh anecdotal evidence

Lel

All bait aside Christianity cannot be considered mythology because so many people worship it. A religion has to be a dead/irrelevant one in order for it to be considered myth

Nice Cred Forums pass.

>It's just a shame we can't share a drop of the hard stuff together by a roaring peat fire.

That's retarded.
Please don't post something that retarded again.

>tfw i had to give away my guinea piggies
They are so sympathetic

Nigga don't u remember forbidden woods?

I would really prefer if you'd be quiet.

I think part of the problem here is that the other user is misusing the term phobia. Certianly more than 10% of people are scared of spiders, but that doesnt mean they have a phobia of them.

It is odd that such a small creature that we know is harmless causes such an immediate and consitently fearful response

Christianity has indoctrinated cucks to hate snakes by identifying them as the satan.

People weren't monkeys, stop this meme already you darwinist.

Not an argument, shithead

>walk drive past a gas station and see a Tarantula and a Rattlesnake fighting in a ring of fire.
what do you do?

If we're instictively afraid of sneks and spiders because our distant ancestors were, why don't we freak out over flightless birds?

Why would I bother with counterarguments to something so retarded?
You can't just change established definitions.

Bet on the snek.

>We know is harmless
Except there's a bunch of spiders and snakes that can and will fuck you up. Being cautious around animals is a lot different than having a phobia over them. I work with a woman that literally screams and ran half a mile to get away from a plastic spider.

Bet $20 on the snek

Satan had an affinity with snakes. It went from there, with everything taking influence from it. Like, even kids shit like Harry Potters says "snakes = evil people!".

Because snake was an evil animal in the Christian storybook. By the way did you ever notice how in the Bible it says God punished the snake by giving it its current limbless form but in almost every depiction of the Eve+snake+apple scene the snake already looks like a modern snake.

Also humans have a genetic aversion to snakes. If something makes a hiss like sound it will fucking alert you like nothing else until you see what caused it. Instinct developed over a long-ass period of time.

>calls my statement retarded
>proceeds to be retarded by not stating a reason why my post is retarded

Holy shit, are you actually implying early humans were fending off dinosaurs?

It's retarded because it's wrong, that's the reason.

No theres not. The vast majority of fucking spiders are completely harmless and people akowledge that despite freaking out around them. Theres not a single harmful spider where I live, yet everyone still acts scared of them

Explain why children will ignorantly touch a snake or a spider with no regard to their own safety? Being afraid of those animals is a learned response.

What do you mean. There was no emus in Africa. What flightless birds?

The idea of snakes being evil is literally as old as literature itself. It's part of the collective unconscious.

they're mean

And state why it's wrong.

This is so stupid I don't know where to begin. So Asatru isn't mythology because it's alive on Iceland?

Because they're gross and weird.

/thread

Yeah, don't you know the Earth is only 1000 years old?

What is he doing naked with that snake.

Because it's not right, that's what wrong means.
You can't just make up a definition for something.
If you started calling trees apples you'd be wrong too. Do you want me to explain why that would be wrong?

secretary bird

Because the thory user gave was that we lived in trees, why would we fear flightless birds if we dwelled in trees?

losing his legacy

You made up the definition of mythology on the spot in a sense it isn't used just so you wouldn't get your feelings hurt by people using the word "Christian" followed with "mythology".

They probably have emotion. Just not the familiar type of emotion that other mammals have.

Because they are curious. Curiosity killed the cat and all that.

I can say for certain though than my sister's kid who is less than 1 year old got super startled by a hissing sound even though other loud sounds didn't stop him from playing.

Also I've never even seen a snake outside of like video games and stuff, they are extremely rare in this part of the world yet one time I had a window open and the wind pushed some papers on top of my desk making a "sssh" sound and I got primal spooked until I realized what was happening. Like a straight up animalistic fear with no conscious thought. I doubt I could develop a reaction that strong just from seeing a snake on Youtube or something.

Okami.

Asatru is still irrelevant though. Besides, modern paganism is LARPing

Still dodging the question I see

They literally dont do this.

Ask Gamefreak.

>mfw always thought snakes would be like wet and cold
>Pet one in a snake tamer's show
>It's warm and dry and nice to touch

Aws. I kinda like snakes now. Still wouldn't have one as a pet because they are so primal it's hard to be certain they won't attack you.

>only my religion is relevant

Are you for real?

post more snek wearing hats

Who decides if something is irrelevant?

...

>I DON'T DRINK- WITH SNAKES.
why did he have to be such an asshole about it though holy shit

Wet and cold sneks won't be able to move.

It's irrelevant because only a niche amount of people practice it

Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and Buddhism can be considered relevant to the modern world because many still practice those religions.

Holy crap Cred Forums is stupid

>Holy crap Cred Forums is stupid

Coming from someone who makes up definitions on the spot and decides for others what's irrelevant.

Also, you forgot the third biggest religion in the world, retard.

Australia has bro and asshole spiders

huntsmans - bros

funnelwebs - assholes

no idea, sneks are cute, CUTE!

cozy snek

>Literally just explained to you

>Putting a jumper on a snake

this makes me mad

The lack of images on your post disgusts me. How the fuck me, a Chilean, is gonna know what the fuck are the spiders you speak of? I'm travelling to Australia next week. Thanks a lot, shitlord.

>atheists finally admit they are a religion

Shintoism, Hinduism, Buddhism i can agree.

the desert trilogy though are just myths.

Weeb detected

And Daddy Long Legs are bros too..

What if he breaks your figures?

This is a hunstman spider

generally you'll see them sitting in the top corner of a room

most of the time they just eat insects like bats do

easy to remove if you don't like them, just put a cup over it and slide some paper underneath

What?

>indian religions
>weeb
Kill yourself shitposter.

I learned about them from Crusader Kings, a western game.

is it poisonous?

Or venemous. I forget which is which.

What if the paper flicks....

This is a funnelweb spider

you probably won't see it, it's a variety that likes to hide under things

it's an aggressive spider

the nightmare story is that one will end up in your shoe

this most likely won't happen

spiders only really take residence in places that are very messy and aren't routinely cleaned

clean your room!

But what the fuck is many? The majority of the world does not practice Christianity, even though it's the most popular religion.

This thing looks like it could eat a rat.

>good spider is white
>evil spider is black
hmmmmm

>clean your room!
My room is dirty asshole, now I'm scared.

It is venomous, but a hunstman bite isn't very dangerous to humans

if you're really worried you can call emergency services (you definitely should if you get bitten by a funnelweb)

And so many people also don't believe in your imaginary friend.

Then what term would you use?
You're one of those people who are always ready to flame someone because they're not ironic and edgy about everything. I bet you look at kids doing kid stuff and go "wow, thats so fucking cringe"

Wild, a PS4 exclusive

>he
It's CLEARLY a she, you scum. What the fuck is your problem?

Really makes you think, huh?

Venomous is from sources that are injected, via fangs, stingers and such.

Poisonous is from consumption or sometimes contact, like plants.

Another dangerous australian spider is the redback

Generally these will be in places like under rotting wood, or next to sheds you might see in someone's backyard who hasn't been out back for 10 years

if you're not sticking your hand anywhere stupid you probably won't ever encounter one

Only the females end up large and black, though redback spiders are smaller spiders overall

It's definitely a pattern

Venom is injected (fangs, stingers, ect..) while poison is something an animal produces but doesn't need to inject, like a poison dart frogs coating.

>huntsman
>doesn't hunt humans
the fuck

Australia is full of monsters, period.
There is a reason why we only sent convicts there.

fuuuck that gif

It's a general term man, getting angry at that is stupid.

I know you're probably joking, but still.

They big ones are about the size of your palm

He has a point. I was gonna make an argument on how le educated people who made friendly contact with scandinavians looked at nordic mythology and went "yeah thats dumb", but then I realized that at that point it was also not mythology, but pagan stuff.
The only argument you could make is that in current year it's not valid, because there's so many atheists that say religion isn't real and is just a myth, but I'm sure there were people in the past who also went "yeah the old thing is not true, but this is."

I don't think anyone would make this argument. It's so obvious when looking at numbers, what is a major religion and what is not. sub-religions don't count

MISGENDERING MY SNEK IS ::::NOT:::: A JOKE

the worst thing she ever did was pee/poop on me a handful of times

Spiders are invading our beautiful country! I need brave heroes to end this menace! Who will heed the call?

This is a handy list, though a little dated

>Lay the curse of blood upon them, and their children, and their children's children, for evermore. Each wretched birth will plunge each child into a lifetime of misery. Mercy for the poor, wizened child...
Bloodborne confirmed to be about Australians.

I love how the fattest, most disgusting spiders are the ones you need to look out for.

The cute, stick leg ones are harmless.

My snake never bit me, I even kiss her frequently and pet her on the head. The most dangerous part about any pet snake, by far, is their cloaca. Sometimes when I don't remember if she pee'd recently or not I check to see if she is about to, the head is the least of my concerns, the tail end is where the true danger is.

Even if you are unfortunate enough to get a bity snek with enough handeling she'll get used to you.

But seriously, you need to be unlucky for that, the vast majority never opens their mouth (even when you want them to eat, sometimes you have to poke the fuckers with the mouse for 10 minutes for them to begin to care)

Corn snakes and Ball pythons are really, really tame.

And reptiles have their own personalities which you get to know with time. They are not mammals, sure, but not completely dead, frozen soulless primeral reptiles either.

god your an idiot

They all look fucking horrifying.

They all look the same man.

It's natural to call something a "he" when you don't know it's actual gender.
Well unless it's a ship I guess, but then I'd just call it a ship.

arachnids and insects are pretty unappealing to look at

I guess you have to appreciate the simplicity and necessary building blocks of their design

I love orb weavers. They look legitimately cute to me. I have one which has cleverly made a web over the glass on my back door. I'm always careful not to destroy it when I change the bird seed.

Damn, now I want to buy a snake.

which ones won't fuck you up if you try to hold/play with them?

>snake
>human male arms and torso

We postin pet sneks in here? Here is my corn snake in her box after feeding time

USsssssss, the sssisssSSsters of the Queen'ssSSGuard !

I was joking around, but now that you mention
>It's natural to call something a "he" when you don't know it's actual gender.
In my language every single thing has a gender. there is no neutral "it" to call things. Snake happens to be female.

TheMoreYouKnow~

The only time my family snake ever bit someone was because the snake thought it was feeding time. The second the snake bit my sister and realized she wasn't food, the snake let go. Corn snake BTW

Make a Terraria for her.

youtube.com/watch?v=avtZJKydB-E

>yfw

So if a bunch of people believed in Greek mythology it would stop being mythology?

I think most people don't know that people who keep pet snakes usually keep non-venomous varieties

>:)
Better keep an eye on your snek

get a corn snake like mine or get a ball python, they're chill af like said

Lol now they have a pet rat with a taste for flesh.

what the fuck

how

...

It's just what I've seen everyone do.

If it's not feminine or isn't obviously female, I'm going to use male call outs? (I don't know the term) by default.

Snake pits are real?? I thought that was just something they made up to put in Giant Snake movies.

Also falling and darkness.

Stephen King once described horror as that feeling you get when you come home from work and find that everything in your house and been switched with an exact replica. In a House of Leaves, a character traces the word 'uncanny' back through it's German route to a word meaning basically "unhomely." The feeling that you're not at home, or that there is something wrong with your home.

Imagine being one of our primitive ancestors caught in a storm. You look for shelter and find yourself a small but useable cave. So you bring your family in, and start a fire, and for a little while things seem OK. But then your mind starts to fixate on that one dark corner of the cave you haven't explored yet. And then the darkness begins to growl.

Snek got a 1 on it's intimidate roll.

Why would I do that just for feeding her? She's plenty comfortable in her box for the few minutes it takes

Would that make the rat actually take its chance and attack instead of escape?

That python is too small for live prey, especially a mouse that big.

how are there people this dumb on here?

damn nature

You'd be surprised how many people, both men and women, find the idea of being in a snake's coils hot and arousing.

she looks comfy

Do you fuck your snek user?

The vast majority of them. However Corn snakes and ball pythons are both a very safe bet.

Corn snakes are smaller but move around more. As I pick mine every morning while making coffee she stays put while warming up with my body heat on my lap (or around my neck like a collar when I'm moving around the house), but after 10 minutes she "wakes up" and starts exploring around.

Ball Pythons are THICC-er and a bit bigger, also eat larger prey (rats instead of mice) but don't move nearly as much, usually rolling up in a ball, as the name suggests, or simply not caring about how you handle them.

If you want a tsundere snek get a Hognose, they play dead (mostly when they are babies) and strike you with their mouths closed to scare you away.

pic related is a sleepy ball python, the only way to see a snake open her mouth is when they eat or get sleepy.

I do. I only feed her life mice when I run out of frozen mice or when she's getting stubborn with eating.
Whoever owned that ball python is a retard, she looks like an infant and he left her alone with the mice (probably all night long)

Snakes dindu nothin' and are very passive. If they don't want to eat they don't care about attacking. The mouse/rat was left alone with her for probably a long time, didn't have food of his own and was scared to death, the snake probably spent her last moments running away while he bit her to death.

Cornered mice and rats will fight and bite their way out. If a snake isn't used to eating live prey, it can struggle. Never switch from frozen to live if a snake is used to frozen.

Depends. Rats are known to be quite intelligent. Possibly it was smart enough to realize there would be no way to escape without killing the snake.

Essentially it was placed in a boss arena and was intelligent enough to recognize the snake as a boss.

Typically in the wild small mammals fuck with snakes all the time.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GLAD I AM TO LIVE IN A FROZEN WASTELAND

Not "pits", per se, but some snakes that hibernate will gather together in communal dens. Garter snakes especially, you can find thousands of them in a hibernation den.

youtube.com/watch?v=VVgReLN2g8k

bruh that's the way snakes eat

Inb4 it transpires the snake was already dead and the rat is actually the pet.

Snakes stretch.

Yeah instead of insects, spiders and snakes you get wolves and bears

Unless you live in a country where we've hunted them out of existence. Like the UK.

thicc

Not ball pythons.

Yes, and they also choke, you nit. Safe feeding habits mean prey items that are no bigger in circumference than the ball python at its largest circumference

>tfw you'll never have a snake bro who hugs you every day

Joke's on you, they didn't survive either.

NOTHING LIVES HERE EXCEPT THE MOST TERRIBLE BEAST OF ALL: MAN.

But also, giant breed of dogs, like the leonbergers and tibet mastiffs.

Being on a small island is probably comf as fuck

Other islands are inhabited by dodos and capybaras because there's nothing to eat them

>The name "ball python" refers to the animal's tendency to curl into a ball when stressed or frightened.[4] The name royal python (from the Latin regius) comes from the fact that rulers in Africa would wear the python as jewelry.

WE

Sneks yawn too?

I wonder how many of those people are like that because of pic related.

I know I'm one of them.

>This species is particularly revered in the traditional religion of the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria. It is considered symbolic of the earth, being an animal that travels so close to the ground. Even among many Christian Igbos, these pythons are treated with great care whenever they happen to wander into a village or onto someone's property; they are allowed to roam freely or are very gently picked up and placed out in a forest or field away from any homes. If one is accidentally killed, many communities in Igboland will still build a coffin for the snake's remains and give it a short funeral.

WUZ

It's literally the best.

>That video.
Nope, that's not okay.

I'm never leaving civilisation, screw the wonders of the natural world.

It's probably re-aligning its jaw

Except for the bit where we share the same latitude as Denmark and Canada, sure. Oh, and we get northwinds straight off the urals colder than a nun's cunt.

>She makes him look up at her face

I have no idea why thats the part that gave me a boner

Don't know about the constriction, but Kaa definitely fueled the hypnosis fetish. Personally I prefer the coiling, preferably while nude or in very little clothing.

>He isn't hardened by those winds.

As a Northerner, if it's not pissing it down with a sharp breeze I'm not comfortable at all. Fuck summer right in the ass, it makes being indoors anything but cosy.

Alive or dead? Wearing a live python as a necklace actually seems pretty cool.

They're not dangerous snakes

>You think THIS is cold
>Come back in january!

badass

t. Red-sided Garter Snake

The UK has its fair share of dangerous predators.

Like Pakistanis.

Alive. Snakes make the best necklaces. There's even a trope dedicated to wearing a snake like clothing/ornamentation, Feather Boa Constrictor.

That doesn't make the idea of being there any less terrifying.

Northern pride worldwide my friend. These fresh winds of late are like a balm to my dry skin after that hell of a summer we just had. My housemate, bless her cotton socks, can't stand the cold at all.

I long for crystal clear night skies where the air is so cold you can see ice forming from the moisture in your breath, where the pavement is a kaleidoscope of color and sparkle that crunches underfoot.

Autumn is nice too, but it doesn't have that icy wonder that the depths of winter does.

Why would someone keep a bunch of bananas on a branch like that?

Where in North?

Manchester here. Sick of this dirty polluted shithole and want out.

The mighty fine Lake District. I live very close to the last supposed port the Americans "attacked" in 1778. The local story is the yankees got drunk with everybody else and set a pub on fire before leaving.

They don't

FUCK THOSE FUNNELFAGS

Saw a video on youtube about them. Those are some nasty pieces of shit.

yup

They do after eating, but they actually yawn too.

did someone already post the puppers?

No really, they've saved more of my troops with binding shenanigans than they've killed
Vipers are pure and meant for XCom to carry off as loot.

I wouldn't quite say they are "not dangerous".

Their bite isn't venomous and won't harm you much, and they are nowhere near strong enough to hurt you by coiling around a limb. However, getting bit is unlikely to be pleasant and if you tried just jumping in, you would probably suffer a few bites from some scared snakes.

That said, a typical garter snake isn't going to hurt you, and will probably be more focused on getting the hell away from you more than anything.

Spiders I can't speak on, but that literally exactly how it is for snakes. The people who manage snake dens for a living even comment on it - kids don't care, whereas adults do, suggesting a learned response.

I swear to god wolf spiders are fucking everywhere near my home you take a step in the grass and 2 run away

>parasite that literally eats the tongue of the fish
>and attaches itself as the tongue
its a brutal parasite.

No but they evolved from a common ancestor, which could have lived in a tree.

>thisismyfetish.jpg

>No Brown Recluse
Fuck those things man, I've been bitten 3 different times by the fuckers. Apparently their previous bites emit pheromones like fucking bees and shit, cuz I'm attracting these fuckers left and right

>hey bro wanna hang out?
truly a man that knows his lover more than himself

The idea is strangely hot, but I would absolutely and without a shred of doubt hate it happening to me.

>all these venomous pieces of shit could be in your house RIGHT NOW if you're an australicunt
Do you guys like, use a flamethrower to do your weekly cleaning?

How the fuck aren't more of you dying?

friend of an aussie here

live in suburban areas and you should be safe. the more spaced out it is for civilization the more chance you'll encounter some next level evil.

or stay inside and just assume normal living.

dont go outside

Coexistence.

You don't mess with them, and they don't mess with you. The only places that are really dangerous are places that people don't usually go or look around, like piles of sheet metal or sheds that don't see much use.

Plus bugs are fucking disgusting, so I love having spiders that eat them.

>risk having the eucalyptus trees explode
Literally everything in Australia is primed to kill you

or if you look for 3 seconds with google you can see the snake is rubber and is perfectly intact.

Alrighty then.

When I moved into my current house we had so many snakes hiding in the foundation they would sun on the path to the front porch and at times we would find some just fucking in the open. House had been on the market for a year and nobody bothered them.

Then we moved in. Sneks got culled, then the neighbor's cat moved onto the front porch, then some dogs started getting loose. Now they hide in the bushes.

>you can damage a brain so badly the animal gains emotions
neat

I'm sorry what?

You have exploding trees?

As long as there's people there to help when the time comes, it's an incredibly arousing experience.

Brainwashing for exotic pets when?

not him but theres a fungus that can grow inside the treee that weakens it, causing big segments of it to break off and fall

was under one while it happened and thankfully it didnt land on me but eucalyptus trees are fucking awful

Nope, way too scary for me to even consider.
I definitely don't want to be in a scenario like that in real life.
I don't mind the fictional porn though.

nah they just like warmth like all cold blooded animals.

Reptiles are some of the oldest, primal animals, they haven't evolved any in millions of years.

Guess we know where these are from

Eucalyptus trees are filled with an oil that evaporates at even mid-high temperatures, think less than 100 degrees. That vapor is also very volatile, if it's exposed to flame it literally explodes. Australian wildfires are incredibly dangerous because of it, when the fire reaches the trees there's absolutely no stopping it.

If you like having all of your ribs crushed and dying by suffocation sure.

It'd take a chainsaw to get a big constrictor off of someone unless the person knows what they're doing.

>Implying that matters when it comes to snek
A buddy of mine culls poisonous snakes near his property, because of yearly float trips down the river that runs through it.

He almost got a world record, but he cut off the head to kill it so it was a tad too short. The stump was striking accurately at us for quite a while when we were trying to measure it.

Thanks to him, I've only been attacked once on a float trip But I still never went on the river again

I still remember the dumbass who wanted to be eaten by snek, even so much as to get advertising for a week on the TV channel he was doing it for, but then he whined like a little bitch because his anti-crush suit was shitty.

I know the Sydney funnelweb is meant to be the most dangerous with those enourmous fangs and extremely potent neurotoxin.

But it's the White Tail that haunts my dreams.

Fuck that tiny little shit and fuck the necrosis it can give you.

>tree that explodes when exposed to flame
this tree probably evolved specifically to make humans not be retarded

danger noodle

Understandable, it's not for the faint of heart.

but it does feel amazing, like a full-body massage happening at once with that feeling of helplessness, arching and wriggling in the coils that slowly tighten everywhere all around you

>tfw walking through the piccadilly gardens pigeon gauntlet
>some of them start to flutter

Yeah, this guy. To be fair it was an interesting idea, though even a large snake would struggle eating an adult man and that suit he wore would have made Titaniboa think twice. Also he stopped it because his arm was trapped in a bad position and was hurting.

you should let a snake constrict you just once, it's not anything like you think it is.

A big python can constrict with enough pounds per inch that it's equivalent to having a bus on your chest.

The oroborous in blaze heatnix's stage in X5. Fuck ALL of them.

I was under the impression that it felt like a snake slowly crushing most of your bones before swallowing you whole, while you're left helpless in agony.
But then I don't know much about snakes.

I like to keep my fantasies as fantasies.

>Some little shit decides to run into them.

And will someone PLEASE wash the bird shit off the queen victoria statue?

Seriously I'm considering just breeding Kestrels and using them to hunt all the pigeons in the city centre. It's absolutely disgusting.

I have, several times.

Feels good man

They don't crush the bones, they suffocate you/cause heart failure, and only if they squeeze long enough.

>they suffocate you/cause heart failure
I mean that's kinda hot in a weird way, but I'd never actually want to see anyone (or myself) in a position where that's a very real possibility.

I understand, not saying you should jump in the python exhibit at the zoo or something. It's cool that you enjoy the fictional stuff about it, always nice to find a fellow constriction fan.

>tfw nagas will never be real and you'll never snuggle in the coils of your naga lover

>make a Terraria for her
But snakes can't play video games

>a fellow constriction fan.
Only slightly user, and only Female with monstergirls or Female with regular big snakes.
Guys are a no go.

Pic sort of related, but I've never actually seen/read the series.

Are you fucking retarded?

What exactly is your complaint?

>that gif
>purposely cut out "that bit" of the gif
DELETE THIS
snek is not for lewd

It's okay, from what I remember. Snek girl a cutie.

All of my female with snake pics are nsfw, hope the guys aren't bothering you too much.

>tfw no lizardpussy to warm with your monkey dick

you're literally dumb

This is the worst fucking thing I have ever read and it makes me sick.

whoever made this picture is retarded and should feel bad for making it

snek hugz

baby python vs fully grown adult rat

they're evil everywhere

This. This very much.

Evil is a human-created concept attempting to explain who bad things happen. Animals cannot be good or evil, they simply are.

Needs more compression

Actually, not really. Spiders are immensely more common when it comes to people who are scared of them, and that is because the further something looks from being human, the scarier it is. Spiders can do multiple different things most animals can't do simultaneously while having 8 legs, and mostly 8 eyes. I think other people who mentioned snakes are correct.

Are you fucking their cloaca or what?

The "in vidya" is his paper thin disguise for this not-vidya thread.

Just go with it

Nah, it's just typical Australia

Don't see how that's evil.

I wish I had a better gif, but the video itself is pretty bad, too.

That's not me and I'm not into bestiality. I didn't know it was from something like that until now.

White tails giving necrosis is just a dumb meme, it's always something else that causes the necrosis, not white tail itself.

>Try this shit in Australia.
>he doesn't handle venomous spiders to move them elsewhere

are you some kind of poofter cunt m8

eh. The snake could mean many things. Mostly liberalism.

>Don't step on me, I bite.

Snakes a shit. Spiders a best. Birds and slime molds agree that this is scientific fact.

I agree

Why is slime in class?
Isn't she like the smartest?

I will fite u IRL. Spiders a shit. Snek AND Birb a best

Nagas > spiders, birds, and slime molds

You're a fucking faggot if you kill huntsmans.

Only white tails and red-backs are acceptable spidey kills.

>A religion has to be a dead/irrelevant one in order for it to be considered myth
So christianity then

It's not my fault you have a human fetish famalam

...

snek bros

I don't like when people feed their snakes live stuff like mice. Makes a mouse owner feel bad.

Had snakes and rats. Never fed my personal bro Lumine to to my snakes, but the others were fair game, especially when they had babies. Critters gotta nom.

Snakes are a common phobia and it's why humans generally get conditioned to fear them or associate them with other "bad" shit.
Spiders are another example.
Ye olde people also had this so they put it in religious texts to justify their irrationality.

That's not it. That's from a shit horror film.

Even most Christian theologians would categorize the story of the Garden of Eden as mythology.

>I TOLD you, Godslayer.

>you will never be a snek and wrap yourself around a hunky guy/sexy girl

>Christian intellectuals

I am not 12 years and two days old.

What's a good starter snek Cred Forums?

My dog passed away a couple of months ago and I feel like I need to get a new pet soon before the loneliness kills me.

Having a snek that can wrap around me while I play games sounds pretty nice.

That's a bullshit myth I'll never understand where foreigners got it from. Nearly all the spiders and snakes here only attack you when you piss them off, i.e step on them or smash your feet around their home.

With like a couple of exceptions. But it's roughly the same number of exceptions that America has.

Because shitty snakes and spiders ARE evil.

Got bitten by a Red Back before and I had an extreme pain and felt a burning sensation for hours. Spiders always spook me since then.

It's not just snakes, it's pretty much reptiles in general all around, dragons and snakes are the most notable and probably common things that are almost guaranteed to either be evil in media, or killed.

no YOU are an idiot

Ball pythons are very good starter sneks. Don't grow too large (usually 4 feet is max), very docile, and only need a place to curl up under/inside, a large water bowl to sit in, and enough room to slither (with some stuff to climb around on), with a source of heat as well, usually a lamp or a heating pad.

That's only your selective world view. There are many good snakes in the history of literature, like the Tale of the Shipwrecked Sailor from ancient egypt. Christianity mostly has evil snakes though, so it canonized most other stories where snakes are evil/monsters.

Anywhere in or outside my house besides my room, spiders are cool by me. Spider in my bedroom? Where I sleep? He's fucking dead.

Also depends on the spider. Web building spider? Awesome. Weird little roving hunter spider? Stay the FUCK away from me.

Snakes are my shit though. I absolutely love them. My whole life I've had this weird ability to smell snakes in the area. You know that weird pee smell snakes have? I can smell it more easily than others, and when I smell the smell, I always find that snake. I've played around with all kinds of snakes. Gopher snakes, rubber boas, western diamond backs. Love em. They also taste pretty good.

I was working with a guy who had his headphones on and kept saying "ow what the fuck?" while he was driving a dingo around. Like 4 "ow what the fucks" later and he takes them off and there was a spider just sitting there, pretty sure it was a redback, that he was pissing off greatly.

Care to share a list of evil snakes in video games?

We most likely wasn't even trying to imply christianity was false when he used the word "mythology", you insecure christcucks.

Nice.

Is there much of difference in behavior between males and females?

Also, I have an old but pretty big aquarium from when we had a bunch of fish. I feel like I could easily convert into a snake habitat, but do you think it would better to buy something purpose built for snakes?

No real difference, attitudes are snake-specific. Female ball pythons are the ones who are bigger, though, so if you want a big small snake get a female.

Here's a good guide for snek care.

reptilesmagazine.com/Care-Sheets/Snakes/Ball-Python/

Your aquarium will be fine, but put something inside it that the snake can hide in when it wants to, that will make it feel more secure.

>mythology: comes from the Greek stem μυθος which means a story, or tale
You're just a retard, no other way of explaining it. Even with your attempt at bait you're still retarded

Sleeping. The snake is stealing an herb that he found at the bottom of the ocean that would have made him young again.

Fantastic, thanks user.

Any other tips you can share that aren't covered in that article?

the snek meme is so funneh! sneks are a spoopy breed indeed!

That's because you would kill to be sucked dry by something evil
