Miscellaneous Corn Snake Discussions This is a "none of the above" forum. All posts should still be related to cornsnakes in one form or another, but some slight off topic posting is fine. |
What is the dumbest thing you have ever heard?

My best friend came over one day and we were looking at my collection and she asked "When they poo, what does it smell like"
It smells like poo! Cause its poo!
And Ive also found many people believe snakes are slimey.

Today I heard a great one. During class my teacher had us pair up with someone to "learn" about them. My partner a boy we'll call "R" asked what types of pets I have, so I told him. He wasn't freaked, but he asked where I kept the snakes. I told him once they are housed in my bedroom.
His response, "Then where do you have sex?" I just kind of stared at him, then said, "Why are you asking?" R said, "Well, you can't have sex in the same room as snakes 'cause they'll attack you. The smell of sex makes them mean." I just kind of goggled at him and said, "Um, that's SO not true."

OK, well the weirdness of asking where you have sex aside (was he expecting an answer? "Why, in the middle of the road, just like that beatles song"), HOW exactly did he come by that information? I mean, how would anyone even go about proving a theory like that? Actually, never mind, a better question would be who would WANT to prove a theory like that. Geez.

When we went for the ultrasound to determine the sex for our first born, the doctor's assistant said "I think it is a girl, it is at a funny angle and I can't be positive." I asked "well, you are the trained eye, so what percentage odds do you give us?" Too which she replied "50/50". I said "hell, I knew that when I walked in the office.

What is the dumbest thing I've ever heard . . . ?? Hmmm, I'm a teacher, so there's the potential for one a day!
"There's no such thing as a stupid question." Yes there is, I've heard them.
"110%" I refuse to use this meaningless expression.
That's just off the top.

Not snake related, just teacher related. ( BTW I'm married to an elementary school teacher and some of the dumbest stories I've heard come from the other teachers! Bureaucracy related off course! )
I remember being in school and the teacher going to explain something by drawing a diagram on the board and they always start with the same apology. "Now forgive my artwork. I can't even draw a straight line." Hhhhhmmmmm. Well I AM an artist, have been so since I was a child and I can't draw a straight line! Drawing a straight line or a perfect circle freehand is one of the most difficult things to do. I know few artists that can. Get a ruler!

I totally saw that! I was like... Really? My 2.5 year old is three feet... And they can live for what, 25 plus years? I also found a few typos in the article, like "then" instead of "than," or vice versa, I don't really remember now. And some other stuff, so I just put it down. People... I tell you what.
My stupid stuff came from Ziggy. I've had people ask me if I'm afraid he's going to try to eat me or the dogs, and when I respond with "Only during breeding season," they get kind of confused... Or asking me what he eats, and they don't believe me when I explain he won't eat insects or meat because he's a herbivore. "But all lizards eat bugs..." Well, lemme go get a komodo and feed him some nice juicy crickets!

Well, you could probably have some fun proving that theory... Just think about it.
