Fun Snake Facts For Adults

There are so many lists of fun facts for kids, but why aren't there fun facts for adults? Adults can have fun. Adults deserve to have fun. Adulthood isn't terrifying, and I'm definitely not using this to distract myself of an oncoming existential crisis. Let's get to the fun (adult) facts!

1. Snakes don't have eyelids.
Right off the bat, snakes can't close their eyes because they don't have eyelids! This means they sleep with their eyes open. Don't you wish you could sleep right now? Isn't adulthood exhausting?

2. Snakes have flexible jaws so they can eat food bigger than their head.
Just like you, snakes can bite off more than they can chew. Actually, snakes can't bite or chew, but you get my point. Don't you feel so overwhelmed right now? Life is a prison.

3. A decapitated head of a snake can still bite for several hours after death.
Doesn't this remind you of the person you thought you cut off who still manages to hurt you? These snake bites may contain more venom than usual, which is pretty neat.

4. The fear of snakes is one of the most common phobias in the world.
This fear (called ophiophobia or herpetophobia) may be common, but so is a fear of the unknown or that all of life is meaningless, or a fear that everyone is your life is pretending to like you but talks about you behind your back, or the fear that you're an imposter and everything you've built for yourself is a lie and that you yourself are living a lie, or that you will end up alone, so, so, alone. Anyway, snakes!

5. There are five recognized species of flying snakes.
That's another thing to be afraid of!

6. The heaviest snake in the world is the anaconda.
The namesake of this blog weighs over 270kg (595lbs). That's dummy thicc!

7. Snakes only need to eat 6-30 meals a year to be healthy.
You wish you could do this! Instead, you waste your weekends meal-planning and meal-prepping. How depressing.

8. Snakes have sex.
I'm sure you already knew that, and I don't want to describe the whole process. Go watch snakes fuck on your own, you pervert! This is just a friendly reminder that snakes are having sex and you aren't. Enjoy dying alone!

Anyway, I hope you liked this list of fun snake facts for adults.
Peace, love, snakes,
-MAD

Top 10 Coffee Snakes

Mmmmmmmmmmmm........... coffee. It's warm, it's a drug, and it goes sploosh in your stomach. But this post isn't about coffee, it's about snakes. In my post "Top 10 Kinds of Snakes," I ranked the genus Ninia as #1. Since there are 10 species in the genus Ninia, I thought today I would rank them. Before we get started, let's talk about Ninia snakes all together: they are native to Mexico, Central America, and the northern part of South America. They are commonly referred to as coffee snakes, hence the name of this post. 10. Ninia franciscoi It breaks my heart to rank any kind of coffee snake last, but seeing as I couldn't find any pictures of this species, I have to rank them here. Time to go into my mud hut and cry for seventeen days! 9. Ninia celata I couldn't find a better picture, sorry. But it's still beautiful. 8. Ninia atrata Also called Hallowell's coffee snake. It's wearing a red choker, which is SO 2006, but ...

Does your anaconda not want none unless they got buns, hun? We have the perfect pick-up lines for snakes trying to find love. Whether you sprinkle these in while sexting (snake texting), exchanging pics after you shed, or trying to meet someone in the wild, these lines are snake tested, snake approved. Your next lover may not have legs, but they'll still fall head-over-heels (or head-over-tail) for you. 1. My anaconda do for you ;) Accompany this zinger with a wink and your date will want to go home with you in no time. 2. I'm not the only thing that's long.

Want to hint that you'll be taking your date's clothes off later? Throw this line out and soon both clothes and scales will be shed. 4. Are you a wild animal? Because I want to choke you. If you're a ...

Nietzsche, New Year's Resolutions, and Night Snakes

Existence is meaningless. This core belief of nihilism, the thought-child of Nietzsche, at first appears depressing. It appears depressing because it is. Believing that life is meaningless can, for quite obvious reasons, cause feelings of depression and despair. After all, if nothing has meaning, what is the point of doing anything? However, once you have successfully detached yourself from anything connecting you to the world or society, life becomes so much easier. You no longer must care about the thoughts or feelings of others. Instead, every decision you make doesn't matter, so why not live life to the fullest? Take a risk, try something new, whisper sweetly to a night snake (more on that in a moment). In this post I thought to give you some New year's resolutions to give your life meaning, on your quest to living a life void of meaning. "Do something every day that scares you" I'm not talking about facing normie fears like spiders or the dark, yo...
