Snake prejudices... Grrrrr!

SO today I was told that I'm (and I quote) 'Mental' for having anything to do with 'those filthy animals' that are 'the inbodiment of satan' let alone having them in my house. Same mare of a woman informed me that she hoped I didn't have children as she felt it would be 'boardering on abuse' to 'expose' my children to them..... she was a customer.... everything I could do not to stuff her book on puppy care up her a**eh*le.

Everything about that post is hilarious.

You should keep a little wallet fold-out of cute pictures of your snakes just for special people like that

Wow... Just, wow. I've always thought that anyone over the age of twelve that needs to buy a book to tell them how to not kill a puppy probably shouldn't HAVE a puppy to begin with.

Coventry, the wonderful (ahem) city that we now find ourselves calling home, is full of ignorant, bigoted, ignorant, poorly educated, idiots. Fortunately, I work from home or with customers around the country, so I don't come into contact with many of them. Char unfortunately works in a shop, fortunately it's a bookshop which keeps the worst of them away.
Give me my snakes (the embodiment of Satan) any day.

I'm currently in the process of collecting Satan's embodiments from around the world. So far I have snakes (Europe) and a pacman frog (South America). Does anyone have suggestions for what harmless critter I should get next? lol

Why not go the whole hog? You've got snakes and a frog, you need a lizard. I'd like to suggest a Komodo dragon. :-)

A Tarantula would have to be next!

I neglected to tell you that this vile woman was buying the puppy care book for equally vile child (who wrecked a display while she looked on and did nothing), because she was getting a puppy for the kid for christmas..... Clearly the whole "Don't buy dogs as christmas presents" campaign has fallen on deaf ears....

I agree!
