Gigantic Reptiles In Toilets Are The New Black
Now that's a BM you can proudly show your grand-children. Okay, no, no one pooped a python. But, Ananova says, a ten-foot boa had been living in Manchester (England) sewers for a while, eating rats, occasionally going up a pipe to pop out of a toilet. Man, now that's the life for me! I don't know... Ananova seems to run a lot of implausible stories. They attribute this to the UK Mirror, which frankly doesn't do a lot to increase my confidence in it. Either way, thanks to Bohemian Conservative. posted by Ace at 04:53 PM

So are they scary or are they giant? Or scary giant? Pear pimples for hairy fish nuts! Posted by: compos mentis on November 3, 2005 05:00 PM
Actually, this is not that uncommon and it happens in the US, too. It's usually when a boa gets loose in one apt, and travels to a neighboring apt via the pipes. I even saw it on Cops. Posted by: on November 3, 2005 05:13 PM
I had a baby Burmese Python that got loose in a third-floor apartment and turned up in a first-floor toilet. The guy who lived there came home from a party and thought he was hallucinating it at first. The cops took it away and I never saw it again. Posted by: Uncle Mikey on November 3, 2005 05:24 PM
Another reason why you men shd put the seat down. Posted by: on November 3, 2005 05:30 PM
Man... unless the python peed, that Manchester water is nasty. Posted by: Jeff on November 3, 2005 06:02 PM
I wonder how many people die of heart attacks this way. The python comes up, person sees it and dies, snake goes back down the pipe. Posted by: Village Idiot on November 3, 2005 06:36 PM
Village, I'm pretty sure that's what got Elvis. Posted by: Dave in Texas on November 3, 2005 08:51 PM
The question is can a cold-blooded creature survive in a sewer, especially in temperate area like England. Is it actually warm enough for such an animal to function? True, decomposition creates heat, but probably not enough to give the critter the type of climate it needs. I saw a Discovery channel show citing this as the reason why "sewer aligators" aren't really down there. Lobsters, though, are another matter. Glen Posted by: Glen on November 3, 2005 09:08 PM

Q: Can I control one with the Rove brain wave device? There's a few people I wouldn't mind seeing get a "shocker" like this. Posted by: Purple Avenger on November 4, 2005 02:21 AM
I've had to "hover" in public restrooms, but in this case I'd probably zoom through the ceiling like a rocket. A poop-and-pee rocket. Posted by: Sue Dohnim on November 4, 2005 08:48 AM
I should have mentioned that one of the other times the baby python got lost in my apartment, my girlfriend found it. She shuffled into the bathroom half asleep in middle of the night, dropped her panties and sat down. The python was looped around the seat with its head in the bowl, drinking the water I suspect, when the GF sat on him. He brought his head up abruptly into her naughty bits and the screams woke me up. Everybody was fine in the end but I can think of few worse ways to find a missing pet.

He's been saying that Tuesday will be a decisive day. Other reports say that Trump is in the last stages of planning an action against the mullahs.

What do we get out of saving the fucking mullahs and letting them kill and torture their own people? Apart from Tucker Carlson getting to pretend he's a Big Man Influencer and that he's worth all the Qatari money he's receiving.)
