Hey, I have an overly formal and academic manner of speaking online which makes shit like that unintentionally hilarious, laugh all you want. Its rather spergy and funny in its own right.
And laugh more because I'm super likely to be stoned at any point while on this forum and still manage to type like that.
Anyway, that aside and back on topic, these "Scalies" seem to be a ... well, I don't want to call it gold mine, considering the horrible nature of what we're seeing here, but in any case they seem like a source of retarded herp owners.
If I can stomach it I will see what I can dig up.
Oh, reptiles attract all kinds of lolcows, usually in the form of ultra-macho assholes who want to show off their testosterone by brandishing massive pythons and/or lizards. They often get into breeding, brag about their collections (which are usually far, far bigger than they can properly afford to support), and delight in using their animals to scare people.
It's sad, because it's fairly easy for people to get away with this shit when it comes to reptiles. Reptiles are quiet, live in boxes, don't advertise their distress in any obvious way, and most people don't know enough about them to judge if an animal's unhealthy. The thing is, when you do fuck up by taking on a reptile that's more than you can handle, you pay for it. I recall the story of some dickhole in Australia who kept a 20 foot reticulated python, didn't feed it often enough, and liked to get it out of its enclosure while he was drunk, generally to impress his girlfriend. Shock of all shocks, one day the hungry snake had enough and literally strangled the fucker.
