I’m just imagining you swollen up from the snake venom trying to examine its asshole while it’s still bit onto you like “…those bitches lied to me!”

It kind of is, but it depends on the continent from what I have found. After looking around a bit, it seems that this wouldn’t apply in Africa or other places. It’s probably partially true, but I couldn’t find out exactly what the conditions were.
But…
I am not snake expert, nor am I even snake smart. However, it seems that the best course of action is not to fuck around and find out.

It’s not even an indicator, there’s places where the opposite is true, this is like the myth of the vertical slit pupils meaning they’re venomous, there’s no actual correlation, this just coincidentally works in areas with few snake species, but you’d have to know that ahead of time so this is practically completely useless.

This seems like a situation where being untrue in just one case makes the fact totally useless.

Thanks for that circle. I would have totally missed reading the bottom half of the image without it.

I feel like second poster has the right idea because beyond his point most of these little ‘rules of thumb’ have a list of exceptions bigger than my apartment.

This is for after you get drunk and sleep with the snake, when you need to decide whether or not to stay until morning.

Running will only offend the snake, making it more likely to attack.

I love that the other way to identify dangerous snakes is to look at their eyes. If they’re derpy, they’re safe. If they look like they’re mean mugging, they’re dangerous.
It’s times like this that I think maybe those people that rant about how this is all a simulation are right.

How about the useless censoring of asshole

What if it was “aააhole”? Guess we’ll never know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
IndiBrony@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Self-censoring is just getting stupid nowadays. I can’t remember which social media platform it is, but you have people censoring words like k*ll, and I just find it utterly ridiculous.
intensely_human@lemm.ee 4 weeks ago
Pretty sure that word is “armhole”

Or the useless apostrophe
