Pythons are cool, I never want a snake though. I don't like too touch any reptiles besides turtles. Good thing Samuel Jackson dosen't know you.











REPETITIVE JOKE ALERT!

What's wrong with how reptiles feel? Snakes are NOT slimy, you know. Pythons have very soft, silky skin, not slimy at all. Samuel Jackson is just an actor-no reflection on how he actually feels about reptiles. It's the morons who made the movie who better be glad that they don't know ME! I've got over 20 snakes, and I've spent much of my life trying to educate people about the truth regarding these animals, and then idiots come along and make some insipid movie that portrays snakes as evil and out to get us. I don't have a real nice attitude when it comes to people like that; they're high on my You-Know-What List.

Yeah but "Snakes on A Plane" was never meant to be a serious movie at all, much less an accurate portrayal of our slithering friends.

I know it wasn't MEANT to be serious, and neither were the Anaconda movies, BUT you'd probably be surprised to know how many people DO, in fact, take movies like those VERY seriously. It just reinforces their misconceptions about snakes. A surprising number of people would rather believe something like that is true than to believe someone like myself, or Jeff Corwin, or the late Steve Irwin, when it comes to things like snakes and spiders.

I know Sam Jackson dosen't hate reptiles like in Snakes on a Plane (or aatleast I think he dosen't), I just don't like to hold snakes. I think snakes are cool & all but from a distance. Or a thin glass sealing.

Everyone has different experiences with reptiles, and not everyone will embrace them. As far as I know, I can tell you that from handling one snake, snakes aren't slimy at all.

Pretty much like Jaws. :3
While snakes are just fine and dandy in my book (I kept a small orange/white colored one in my room), I can understand why some people dislike and/or fear them. My grandmother grew an extreme fear of snakes because as a child, she encountered them everyday where she lived. During one of our trips to the Grand Canyon, I had to pick a stuffed snake toy for my 10-year-old cousin (who loves snakes) for my grandmother because she couldn't so much as even look at it. She gave me the money to pay for it and then had me carry the bag and put it away in the back of our caravan, away from her view. Like ORD said, everybody has different experiences with reptiles; many, which I had come to learn, are FAR from pleasant.
