I love snakes. They're like dragons. But, I am absolutely disgusted by earthworms!

I hate snakes. I've stepped on one once and hit another with a weed waker. Do not like them at all.

I don't hate snakes. I wouldn't want one to bite me or eat me, but other than that, I think they're quite interesting and have some charm. :)

When I see a snake on the road that hasn't been run over, I stop and try to chase it off the road before someone does run over it. That includes rattlesnakes.

I like snakes. I think this stems from watching Steve Irwin. I'm the only family member who is not afraid of them, so I get to remove them from my garage. Though I wouldn't go near anything venomous. That would be stupid.

I do in the sense I want to be nowhere near one. But I think they're interesting to watch when behind a glass.

Spiders and cockroaches I don't want to by anywhere near.

A snake is a steak.

I don't hate any creatures. I admitnthough I was distinctly uncomfortable and startled when a gaggle (?) of snakes hatched in my garage and I almost stepped on on several of the little things while baredfootedly taking the garbage out.

I don't know which ones are venomous or not, so I've felt uncomfortable on the rare occasion that I've seen one. If somebody knowledgeable pointed out that it was safe, though, I'd be at ease, because I like reptiles.

I just remembered a holiday in Florida a few years ago. I opened the front door to the house and there was a a chunky fella "standing" quite tall eyeing me up. I screamed and shut the door because it was my first encounter with a snake outside of a zoo! :lol:

I've heard of people using rattlesnakes in chili, but I've never actually seen anyone do it.

I've never seen a snake, only the shed skin of one. I like reptiles.

If I remember correctly, there is a legless lizard in Ireland that is like a snake except that it has eyelids and if you grab the tail, it will detach from the body. Isn't it called a "slow worm" or something like that?

What kind of views do the Irish people have of them?
