Creepy Crawly Warning

**sasvermont** · 05-29-2007, 09:58 AM

Don't we have more important things to chat about?

This is a sleeper topic if I've ever seen one.

If Karen wants to put this warning up, it is her web site, let her do it.

Move on.

if that is, why did you bother to relpy - you wanted to say what you had to say too, right?

what have gone in PT lately?

I definitely would only want to keep pet talk's water so I can have a baby later.

I thought everyone was being quite civil and respectful in giving their opinions.. I'm not really sure why you are so angry. It seems to me that the Town Hall's purpose is discussion of things regarding the board and community, I don't see how it is out of line for people to express how they feel about it as long as it isn't attacking.

I've already expressed how I feel about it in the past. It bothers me and feels rather discriminatory as others stated. I do realize why it is there, but some people post pictures of snakes or have snakes and "creepies" in their sigs or icons, I don't see the big difference? If they are that horribly affected by a picture of an animal I feel it's definitely sad and they may need some therapy or help with such a phobia but the pets should allowed to be featured just like all the other special pets are. Just my 2 cents.

I do have a real fear of snakes. Its not a terrifying fear, but they do give me the chills. Then recently I decided to try and get over my fear. I was kinda amused by the warning but I still clicked on it and read the description. I was impressed to see it was a burmese python. I had no idea they were yellow like that. I still got kinda creeped out but I at least admired the beauty of the snake and enjoyed reading the description. I think the warning thing is a better safe than sorry approach and I'm sure its a tough decision to have to put it in place.

Wow, I find that really uncalled for. I don't know if you have a snake, or other animals listed as "creepy crawlies" but other people have different opinions and since this is a PUBLIC message board they are certainly allowed to post it. No one was ever rude before the post you made.
