Damn, it that isn't the pot calling the kettle
black. The moment I suggested something that conflicted
with your "knowledge" you became as stiff as board and
as combative as a badger. My rigidity on this
subject comes from personal experience and education. Not
half baked opinions based on limited experience with
very few species. None of which happen to be anacondas
either I might add. The species at the center of this
debate.

I was just shown to this list by a friend of
mine, who I suppose figured I might be interested in
what was going on here.
To tell you the truth;
I'm rather disgusted. What's the deal with you people
balking and crying at people who answered your fuckin'
question for you? If you don't wanna know, don't ask. And
if you don't wanna know, DO NOT RAISE REPTILES.
Ignorance around these animals is often outright
dangerous.
I only have a little bit of information on
najaboy69 right now, but he *obviously* knows what he's
talking about. And I *know* BMF personally. He knows what
he's talking about. If he didn't, I wouldn't bother
him all the time with my retarded little questions
about my varanid and my cornsnake. Comparatively, I
have very little 'experience', but that doesn't mean
that I don't know anything.
Like the fact that
heat-sensory is not the only way that they find things. Ever
heard of pheremones? Chemicals given off by living
things? If not, I'm astonished, because that was one of
the first things I learned about when I started
getting into reptiles a little over three years ago. I'd
probably have been bitten a lot more had I not learned
that they can tell if you're afraid, even if you're
not aware that you are.
And: yes. Three years.
Like I said: I have no experience, comparatively. Yes,
I read books about these animals -- lots of books.
I also talk to people who know what they're talking
about. I also live with someone who's raised everything
from basilisks to A.mississippiensis, and at one
point, a C.siamensis. Surviving /that/ bastard might
count for something.
Honsetly, I think some of
you might do well with a little 'book learning'. You
might be surprised to find out how things actually act
in the wild. Captive animals are a little different
-- mostly because you control their diets. Try
reading something for once; you might be
surprsied.

I guess your hypocrisy knows no bounds...
childish, lol (last I checked, I wasn't the one resortting
to profanity when proven to be ignorant on a myriad
of subjects). Remember, o' great one, this is
something that you brought upon yourself. As I have said
before, you are only reaping what you have sown. I have
no pity for you- only for the snakes which you are
subjecting to substandard care.
"you have to
be,without a doubt,one of the greatest assholes that i have
ever encountered." Coming from you, I take that as
a compliment. After all, you have consistently
demonstrated yourself to be the king of all ********. You
might not know squat about snakes, but you sure do know
about emulating bodily orfices.
"i am far from
ignorant" I'll give you that much. Ignorance is curable. You, on
the other hand, are intentionally obtuse. Put another
way, it could be said that you don't know your a$$
from a hole in the ground.
"we're all doing
fine with no problems.guess we're doing something
right,which means we don't need you,do we" Ever hear of
doing something in spite of yourself? You aren't doing
anything right. Its a shame that your snakes have to
suffer as a result of your idiocy.
"you're just
an arrogant snot who loves to wave his so called
knowledge in people's faces("look at me,i have an
education!")" You got picked on a lot as a kid didn't you? Either
that, or you must've been held back a grade or two. As
for me, I'm just someone who knows how to properly
care for reptiles, as well as knowing what they eat.
You, on the other hand...
"p.s.-my friend
ed-another snake keeper(burmese,ball & red tail boa)-says
to--no,i won't print that here.." LOL... well, I guess
you sure told me! MENSA cantidates, you and your
"friend" are not! Maybe the Darwin Award, but definitely
not MENSA.
"we don't need you & your
rigid,inflexible thinking" rigid, inflexible thinking= a basic
knowledge of reptile care, knowing what a particular animal
eats, and not spreading gross misinformation such as
"anacondas are the only large constrictors that consume
cold-blooded prey", and attacking someone when they politely
correct you.

You talk about respect, but have consistently
demonstrated yourself to be painfully undeserving of it. Truth
be told, this public besmirching of you could have
been avoided had you admitted that you were wrong when
BMF first corrected you about the dietary habits of
large constrictors. But instead of doing the smart
thing, and standing corrected, you became rude &
indignant about it. But it got even better from there- you
continued to stick your foot in your mouth with incorrect
posts about labial pits, etc.
Now, I just want
you to know that many people, in this club and
others, are laughing at you. I take no responsibility for
exposing you for the hack that you are. I merely gave you
the rope, and you hung yourself with it.

just for the record,i have been told by numerous
people that i'm one of the most intelligent individuals
that they've ever known.no one's snakes are being
mistreated-they're all quite healthy.get over your obsession about
that.what you can't stand is that an individual stands up
to your formality.i had a similar experience with an
organization that regulates in-line skating(or tries to).they
try to keep a union/mafia like stranghold on
certifying instructors.question is,who certifies them to
certify others?answer-no one.they just got together &
decided that it would be done a certain way,with no room
for individuality(such as incorporating the balance
principles of tai chi).i've been skating almost since i
could walk,i played hockey for years,& i'm more than
qualified to teach others.i do not need to take their
course & follow their rigid curiculum.this is the same
type of problem that i have with you.do you understand
now?

Balance principles of tai chi...classical Chinese
philosophical texts are notorious for their ambiguity
(expression whose meaning cannot be determined from its
context)...is this what you mean? (I ask to learn.)

it has nothing to do with any text.i've studied
tai chi for over 15 years,& a lot of their principles
of movement & balance are very compatible with
skating.body shifting,angles,direction changes,etc.i've used
these movements to shift & change direction when people
said the movement was impossible-yet i've done
it.firewalking is also impossible by any known science,but i,&
many others have done that too.individuality is very
frowned upon by members of the scientific community.learn
to go beyond the texts.

that skate organization that i mentioned has
actually gone so far as to threaten skate shops with using
their influence to get manufacturers of skates & parts
to not sell to them if they continue to display the
buisiness cards of non-certified instructors.although not
as extreme,the scientific community behaves the same
way.they try to shut down anyone with new ideas who does
not follow their rules.
