Darwin Was Right


I heard this story once....
and it's all "alleged".
None of it's allegedly true, even, possibly. Maybe. Because to write about it, firsthand could be violating all kinds of things and what-nots and so-forths.
But if it were true-ish, Darwin would be right.
There was a girl on a break from her work once, and she went outside this workplace.
Now, outside this workplace, there were...the workers..and there were...let's see...visitors, and the people who came to visit the visitors.
This girl sat on a bench next to one of the visitors. This girl was just sitting there, minding her own business, having herself a break.

Visitor : This place is driving me crazy.

Girl : Oh. :::noticing huge wrapped bandage hand....also, huge, unaturally swollen fingers sticking out of bandage::::

Visitor : Yeah.

Girl : So, what are ya in for? :::vaguely curious, she thinks.. man, those fingers are HUGE::::

Visitor : Aww...well, my pet rattler bit me.....say....are you married?

Girl : Uh.

Girl : yah...

Visitor : DAMN!! All the pretty ones are MARRIED!!!! MAN!!!

Girl : Uh...

Girl : So uh, yeah...I read about you in the paper....your snake bit you...and then you hid the snake???

Girl : They said the DNR guy had to search the house for the rattle snake???

Visitor : Yeah....well...it was a Western Diamond Back....I knew they'd kill it...so I hid it...it was illegal to have.
Damn...it's all in the papers...it's like I'm a danged :::he said "danged" ::: celebrity...

Girl : :::thinking to news report that Visitor had to be air-evac-ed to trauma hospital for anti-vemom:::: :::::can't stop looking at huge fingers::::::::

Girl: So, what happened?

Visitor: Well, I was fucked up.....

Girl: ::::instantly thinking back to friend who raised snakes...saying "never EVER be fucked up around your snakes, They sense it.":::::::::

Girl: And...

Visitor : And...I went to feed it...and he bit me...

Girl: And...

Visitor : And..well, I knew I had to hide it..because, when word got out I got bit by a rattler, the DNR guys would confiscate it and kill it...so I hid it in my house...and my buddy and I drove to the hospital....MAN!!!! I was FREAKING OUT!!! SO I Twisted me up a fattie, in cased I died, I wanted to be good and HIGH!!!!! And got me to the hospital, and now, here I am...

Girl :

Girl : ::::::Girl can NOT wait to get back upstairs to work to tell fellow co-workers about this. BUT it gets better...:::::::

Girl : So..what does the doctor say?

Visitor : He says the swelling ought to go down soon enough....They killed my snake though...they found it...

Girl : Kind of lame of you to have hidden it...probably scared that DNR dude...

Visitor : Yeah...well..I'm thinkin' of getting me a Cobra.

Girl : Yeah. You really should. You really. Should.
