Python Math

A little late, but yay my finger has healed to the point where typing is not painful, so that was only a few days out of commission. Still keeping it wrapped to limit movement and avoid catching the split on anything. 

 Before any panic ensues, the Python in question is a programming language. Why is it called python? That's a great question and I need to look that up. Haha, I NEVER would have guess that. Here's the link. The programming language is named after Monty Python's Flying Circus. As for this comic, I don't recall the article I read that inspired it. I learned Python for some tasks at my last job, and I don't recall having any issues with math in it but I was not using it for math functions - I was retrieving, modifying, and returning data with it. But since I was learning the language, I read a lot of articles on it and somehow this comic came into being.

R: Snakes can do math now?!?!?

Frog Protection

 I mean, they would probably keep away the frogs. But I think I would prefer frogs over snakes. Also, drawing that carrier was kinda difficult but I really like how it turned out. Even if that totally would not work to contain snakes since they would just glide through the squares. Let's pretend there's another, finer grid that you can't see. There was a credit card commercial that had a similar miscommunication about Frog vs. Fraud, but I don't remember the company or the commercial specifics. Side Note: snakes in your house is. not. cool.

A: I asked you to protect my credit card purchases - why are you delivering snakes to my house?!?!
B: Oh, I thought you needed FROG protection. 

Tattooed Snake

 Instead of a snake tattoo, let's flip the story. So there was a book I read (actually listened too because audio-books are great for long car drives) where there was a character (Frank) who could shape-shift into animals kind of like Beast Boy in Teen Titans. I think it would be unethical to tattoo a snake so don't do that but since most snakes are identified by their markings, it would make things quite difficult for those who study snakes.

A: You're dating a diamondback?
H: No, Frank just got inked. 

No Hoodies

 

This is not my best drawn snake, but trying to get the angle of the head with the sign was difficult. Certain snakes have hoods and there are reasons, but cobras are the most famous for them. Where I grew up in CT, there is the hognose snake which is famous for looking like a cobra but are actually harmless. They pretend to be a cobra to deter threats but if the threat is not deterred, they play dead. They play dead so well that if you flip them right-side up, they will flip back to be belly-up to prove they are dead. I think that is humorous.

Sign: No hoodies
Cobra: I'm offended.

Favorite Feature of the New House

True story - I think our snake count at the townhouse was 7 when we left. We were in the house for about six years before they started showing up, then they just kept showing up. Only had one professionally removed by Critter Control - the others we either evicted ourselves or found them post-mortem stuck to sticky traps (eww). At the beginning of the year, I told my Mark that if we found another snake, I was ready to move (he had wanted to move for a while). At the beginning of the Pandemic, we started cleaning out the random corners of the house that just accumulate stuff and we don't frequent and yep, we found another snake. So we listed the house and started our search. And no snakes in the new house!

A: ... What?!?!

Pets That Could Outlive You

I thought this up after hearing how long some parrots live. Turtles also have very long lives. Venomous snakes may not live super song, but ... can shorten yours. Oh, cobras can live like twenty years so that's a rather long living pet. Which shouldn't be a pet - that's a deadly animal that should be left in the wild.

Snake knitting

Well that takes talent.

Not Venomous

I used to think that non-venomous meant they couldn't bite you.
