I am the schaudenfreude. I came out of my study so that I could head down to the supermarket to buy some milk and stuff to make dinner with and found my dogs crowding around something in the kitchen. So I check it out and see a scaly head and I just lose my poo poo loudly which leads to one of my neighbours running around to see what was wrong. Turns out that it was just a Blue Tongue Lizard (a very large skink) that I mistook for a snake because I live close to a river and snakes live in the scrub around there. So they had a good laugh at my expense for losing it about something that ended up being a completely harmless lizard.

Go read up on snakes before you lose your poo poo anymore. A snakes head doesn't look anything like a skink, and beyond that, there are very few snakes you have to watch out for. Cottonmouths aren't likely to just shimmy into your kitchen anyway. You are probably one of those pricks who kill a grass snake or a rat snake because OH MER GERD AH SNAKE

I live in Australia in an area where Tiger Snakes (you know, one of the top ten deadliest snakes in the world) routinely enter peoples houses and are aggressive little shits. I was also more worried about both of my dogs and my cat. Also, I couldn't see the body of the blue tongue and could only see it's head.  This is a Blue Tongue Lizard. They can get to about the length of your forearm but they're harmless and docile. .jpg) This is a tiger snake, once more venemous and aggressive. Remember, can't see the body and I live in an area where they're common. Do the math. EDIT: Oh, also the second deadliest land snake is common in my area. So yeah, eat a dick.

I can't count how many times I've had one in my garden, or been called out by a neighbour because they've spotted one, and thought it was a snake.EDIT: This is the sort we got when I was a kid living up north - the Northern Blue Tongue Skink. I defy anyone to say that head doesn't look like a snake's.

I know that "Harmless and docile" is not the same thing as "friendly" but the way you phrased your post makes it sound like the thing is like a dog or something. At forearm length that's like toy dog size. I'd probably try to pet it based on that knowledge and then wonder why its mouth is so tightly latched onto my fingers.

I was the "reptile manager" in a pet store and we had a blue-tongue skink who was the awesomest dude ever. You could pick him up, carry him around, he would just chill. We had an infestation of these big black beetles, 2" long, and whenever we ever caught any, we would put the skink on our counter and feed him these things. He'd just hang out there, waiting for more beetles. I miss that guy, he was a good friend.

An army of killer clowns is on the loose in the North of France, terrorizing and sometimes even assaulting the local population, often around schools. http://www.thelocal.fr/20141017/northern-france-gripped-by-clown-panic  https://twitter.com/Zinedine_Mzt/status/522858025263321089/photo/1 Looks like the killer clown pranks posted earlier created a new fad there, rumors and panic ensued. For Friday alone, 40 clown incidents were reported to the authorities (but not confirmed), and one man was convicted yesterday to 6 months of prison for a prank with a fake weapon and a clown outfit. e: the picture is probably from an unrelated incident, it seems that a lot of people try to blow this out of proportion by making false reports to create panic.

Pinterest Fails are one of my favorite things on the internet.    I had to read through a bit of that above conversation before I realized what "CP" stood for. Have we really got to the point where we need an abbreviation for "child porn?" Wait. Don't answer that, internet. Bonus schadenfreude story about people who don't know about gross poo poo: A few years ago I was playing in a World of Darkness LARP (yeah, I know. The schadenfreude is me). I was playing a homeless trickster and a good friend of mine was playing a character who led a sheltered life previous to getting involved with the supernatural. I'm walking around, minding my own business, and she comes out of a room onto the "street" (a hallway) and says:  "Coyote, do you know what a glory hole is?" She seems muddled and exasperated. "Um, I really don't think I should be talking about that with you," I reply nervously, keeping in character.Then she puts up a hand sign that indicates "I am speaking out-of-character."  "Railing Kill, do you know what a glory hole is?" She was horrified. "Well, Railing Kill's Friend, don't you?"She explains that one of the other characters made a joke about a glory hole in front of her and the other characters made fun of her character for not knowing what a glory hole was. Then they realized that she, the player, didn't know either. She didn't believe them and I had to convince her that they were real and they are exactly as gross and sketchy as they seem. She was about 28 at the time. She just... never heard of it. I wouldn't normally describe her as as sheltered as her character, so I was taken aback by having to explain something so gross to my friend.

I play a lovely game on facebook called Avengers Alliance and it has a resource called Command Points. When talking to other losers who also play this game we abbreviate to CP. Which lead to one of us bragging about how much CP he had on an online conversation with someone who isn't in the game. Man that took a lot of explaining. Also I had a friend who got talked into going to a Vampire thing. For some reason he thought it would be like LARP and involve battles and poo poo. He said he got bored before the end of the night. Also there was some racism. My friend is black and got into a thing with someone with a vampire that had owned slaves.
