I think they wouldn't be so hated if they were soft and furry - don't you agree

1. A cat who wants to keep his or her tail...
might see them as setting a bad example of secession. Cats might attack them to help keep their own tails from getting any ideas.

2. Maybe if they did cute, silly and stupid like our cats do, then yes.
I have yet to see a snake do a cat, except to eat it.

3. Snakes demand respect, which makes them cool and uncool at the same time
Cats demand respect too, but they also play you like a violin, doing all of that cute, manipulative stuff.

Snakes don't care about cute.

They just want respect, and if you don't give it, they'll just fucking BITE you.

Sometimes I think we'd all be better off if we thought like snakes and just BIT everyone who DARED to fuck with us.

OK, OK...I know that's a little extreme. Anyone with a better solution can feel free to post it HERE.

:tofl:

4. Nope, the Bible says God made us hate them.
And if that isn't an official source, I don't know what is.

Next thing you know, you'll be telling me the Earth is older than 6,000 years old.

6. Yeah, but the snake was right!
Maybe the reason people hate snakes is really anti-intellectualism, like the reason why all those people didn't vote for Gore and Kerry because they used big words and would probably ask them to wear a sweater to cut down on heating costs like Carter.

Maybe people think that if weren't for that damn snake, we'd still be naked, stupid, and happy.

9. But could you imagine walks around in public with a furry snake wrapped around you
It would be the new fashion trend replacing those teacup dogs
