    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Drunk Indian man bitten by snake retaliates by biting back, killing it

A drunk man in India exacted his revenge on a snake that bit him by biting it back and chewing it into pieces.

The man, Raj Kumar was relaxing at home with a drink Sunday when a snake slithered into his house in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh and bit him, said his father, according to Reuters.

The man's father said that his son was drunk when he bit the reptile.

“A snake bit him. So, in turn, he bit it and chewed it into pieces,” said the father, Babu Ram.

Kumar was hospitalized in serious condition.

“This is definitely weird,” said Raj Kumar’s doctor, N.P. Singh, according to Reuters.

“I’ve seen people coming in with snakebites, but never somebody who bit a snake and then brought it with him in a bag.”

Kumar was bitten by a non-venomous rat snake.

The snake was cremated, according to local media.

Non-venomous rat snake bite and he is in the hospital in serious condition? :huh_01:

I had to check the date to make sure it isn't April 1.

The reptile that bit him was reported to have been a rat snake, which experts regard as usually not venomous.

Usually??

Unless I overlooked that detail, it still doesn't explain why he was in intensive care. Outside of severe intoxication (the bottled form), of course.
 
I read both stories. Too funny! Ok, so kids (and idiot adults) .. step away from your cellphones, social media and video games. Go outside and enjoy nature. (Or enjoy inside, if nature comes inside to you, lol)

However, do not chew on live snakes after you consume alcohol.
 
I read a version that said the family was not able to afford the charges of the first hospital he had been taken to and he was actually transferred to a different hospital.
I do not know about over there but over here if a doctor claims there is an emergency and the patient requires intensive care, the hospital cannot transfer the patient even if he cannot pay until he is stabilized. So the 'intensive care' classification may have been an unsuccessful attempt by his doctor to prevent a transfer.
