You just walked in from work.

You went to the bedroom to pull your shoes off, or maybe your favorite chair and you're having a drink, maybe you went directly to the toilet even.

Lets just say that you're comfortable, content and quite happy about things in general, when it happens...

You hear a slithery sound. Maybe a slight rattling. Then you see it, sliding itself across the floor towards you:

a 5 foot snake has just entered your life at the most inopportune of moments- its gotten very close to you and doesn't show any signs of backing off. you don't know if its poisonous or not, but are you willing to take that chance?

how would you survive or escape this scenario?

    I could easily survive, I don't love snakes but I am not afraid of them. I would attempt grabbing it from behind the head and get it outside. Now if we were talking spiders of any size but especially a 5 foot one, the obvious solution is burn the whole mother efffing house down.

    Well, if I was sitting on the toilet I could only assume it wanted to talk to my snake.

    Is it rattling or not? That makes a difference since only rattlers rattle and they are venomous, not poisonous as poisonous is a term for something you eat.

    What if I bite it and it dies?

    It also depends where you bite it. Do you cook it first? If you bite off the head, raw, then you will die because that would be poisonous. If you cook it and eat the body, you should be ok.

    We only have one venomous snake in the UK so I have a 50/50 chance of surviving this scenario.

    For any UK folks who want to know how to tell the difference. Zig zag pattern along spine = Adder so venomous. Yellow collar around neck = Grass Snake so not venomous.

    I've actually been faced with this.

    It was a rattlesnake and we didn't like each other.

    I froze in my tracks and he slithered under a sofa.

    It was a bit of a Mexican Standoff (without the Mexico).

    Grab a shovel in one hand, my dance sword in the other. And scream as loud as I can for my pet honey badger.
