5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

OP is making wrong assumptions. Yes snakes have reptile brains but they aren't trying to kill you. It's not like they can do much with you once you're dead, unless you have an anaconda in which case you have my full respect.
I have a California Kingsnake (5ft long). Most of the time she's furniture, except the one day a week I feed her (sometimes it's even less than that). Sometimes I take her out of the tank and sit with her on the computer. Yes she'll sometimes wrap herself around my neck, but it's just for anchoring. She's not squeezing to kill, and even if she did try to squeeze I can overpower her. She's cute, she does silly things.
Snakes kinda just exist.
There's not many circumstances in life where you can just state "most of the time she's furniture" and mean it and also no one questions it. The other one I can think of is House of Gord...
Man, that's a name I haven't heard in a while and just like that all the memories flooded back
RIP Gord
Shhh if you keep this up people will google that and then be like... What. The. Fuck.
