GROSS SNAKE MAN!

Okay, so this one is a little off topic, but I need to warn everyone about the gross snake man. What was once my favourite neighbourhood Starbucks is now the lurking grounds of the gross snake man and his disgusting snake. I can’t tell you how much I HATE snakes. My eyes tear and my heart rate accelerates just from the site of them (photos included). I run from them! If I were surrounded by snakes, I would knock myself out with the first object I could find, just so I wouldn’t have to deal with the stress. It’s really that bad!! Thanks to gross snake man, I’m now terrified to go to my favouite Starbucks - which is also the closest one to HP/my work. I saw snake man there all winter, but I had no idea he was a creepy gross snake lover until the first hot day this year when I saw him leaving the parking lot with a giant boa constrictor on the dash of his SUV. Sick! This made me scared to park my car in the lot. It gets worse! Thursday while I’m at work (down the street from Starbucks) I get an alarming text message from LTP with a warning – “Do not come to Starbucks, gross snake man is here with his snake!” OMG! The photo alone almost gave me a heart attack. What if I was there? What if I was inside, how would I get out? I would of had to call 9-11. Really! So now as you can see, I have valid reason(s) to be nervous about going there. Today, LTP talked me into going there after our wod to sit outside. We parked in the back and I noticed a white SUV, but there didn’t appear to be a snake on the dash - was it gross snake man’s vehicle and was the snake "hiding" inside? I don’t know, but while we were enjoying our coffees and elevate me bars on the front patio, gross snake man all of a sudden comes walking around the corner! He was not bearing a snake (today), but the gross snake man scares me just as much. I'm just as scared of gross snake man as I am his gross snake. I don’t know what to do. Maybe I should start a petition for gross snake man to be banned from that Starbucks? Any other suggestions! I’m so grossed out right now! I don't know how long I'll even be able to leave this photo up. Sick, sick, sick! Hounds hate snakes too!! I hope there are no snakes at the Games!
