Snake flu?

I understand the coronavirus could have started with snakes.

Which makes me sssomewhat concerned about the sssymptoms of my current chest cold. I have developed a terrible hissssing cough. Last night I was rolling around on the carpet and my ssskin sssloughed off. Not to make light of the current health crisssisss, but what are other sssigns I might have cobra/krait influensssa?

Just Kaa-lm down, just slytherin to bed and you’ll be fine later.

Have you began to feel a deep antipathy for G.I. Joe?

Ssssslither up to a mirror and check for fffangssss.

I tried curling up in bed lassst night, but I could not get comfortable. I am going to try to find some tall grassss to lie in today and sssee if that isss better.

If you start ‘rattlin’ it’s time to call in a Herpetologist.
(I think that’s what they are called)

Here, take this quiz:

What sounds tastiest to you:

a. A burger and fries

b. An ice cream cone

c. A live mouse

I am not terribly hungry right now, but after all I did eat lassst week and my belly wasss quite ssswollen at the time.

Do you steal root beer?

Have you ever been up an apple tree offering apples to a nekkid woman?

Not recently.

I am feeling a little better. I took a couple of asp-irin.

Do you have health insurance through Cobra?

I rrrread rrrrecently that they found strrrrange prrrrions in the brrrrains of farrrrmed salmon, leading me to wonderrrr if we arrrre about to see an epidemic of Mad Fish Disease.

And now, rrrreading about the Chinese culinarrrry habit of eating bats and snakes, and seemingly getting diseases frrrrom them, I wonderrrr: Arrrre we about to see an epidemic of Mad Bat Disease or Mad Snake Disease?

If I werrrre Biotop (and even if I werrrren’t), I’d be afrrrraid. Verrrry afrrrraid.

(ETA: Cite.)

No. But my health savings account covers the repTylenol.

[CDC Official]There issss nothing to be alarmed about. If a ssslight fever appearssss, ssswallow a sssssmall rodent, and hibernate till Ssspring.[/CDC Official]

Sssmall rodent, my assssss! I’m going to eat a whole elephanttttt!

Ceci n’est pas un chapeau

Breathing much better today. My wife applied sssome Vick’sss Viper Rub.
