I wanted to fish today and this hognose wouldn't let me get to my shit and it weirdly blew air at me and kinda jumped towards me at one point and now I'm annoyed
>>2865220touch the noodle
>>2865220*hiss*
>>2865220how are you not cursed by nature
>>2865220>filtered by something they sell in petstores....
>>2865228Tbf they're mildly venomous...
>>2865220>op scared of a harmless garden snakeYou people will find any excuse to not go outside
>>2865228>>2865237Good to know that these things aren't dangerous.
>>2865241I wonder whats going on in that little snake brain.
>>2865251Absolutely nothing. Do you think animals have an inner monolugue?
>>2865253Y-yes?
>>2865220Move it to the side or just reach over it
>>2865253
That's a Black Mamba
>>2865251>I wonder whats going on in that little snake brain.It's a Hognose. It's very essence is >"FUCK OFF LEAVE ME ALONE OR I'LL ACT LIKE A RATTLESNAKE THEN PLAY DEAD AND SHIT ON YOU WHEN YOU GO TO MOVE ME".
>>2865253A farmer had a heart attack and their pet pig ran into the nearby road and played dead until someone followed it back to their ownerI don't know if this considered conscious thoughts, but I think it acted in a completely logical way within it's means, giving credence to higher thought.
>>2865229No they are not. Fuck off fag.
>>2865254half of /out/ posters don't have an inner monologue.
>>2865220You've got a spinning reel on that casting rod. Methinks you shouldn't be fishing in the first place.
>>2865241Red bellies are great, timid snakes that eat other snakes. If there's a red belly in your yard there's no browns or tigers around
>>2865406They are, but they're rear fang venomous snakes so the pointy bits you have to worry about are in the back of their mouth and mostly used for helping kill prey after they have it coiled up, not while striking, they don't strike easily in the first place, and it's a pretty mild toxin anyway unlikely to do any real harm unless you're allergic.
>>2865220You need a thumbstick.
>>2865229the fangs that have said venom are so far back in its throat its nearly impossible to get envenomated by them.
>>2865407i dont. id argue no one needs inner monologue
>>2865220Very cute.
>>2865253For most snakes, no, but for a hognose? Absolutely.Next time you see one play dead try to put it back on its belly. It'll look at you out of the corner of its eye, roll back on its side or back, then stick its tongue out as if to say "no no I'm REALLY dead, like in the cartoons". Shit is genuine hilarious and it's something I've seen toddlers do.
>>2865898Sounds like something a hylic would say.
