Next time you're trying to convince a newly goth 17-year-old not to get their ears gauged, why not tell them tale of one Ashley Glawe, a Portland resident with ear gauges and a pet python who recently became internet famous for getting her python lodged in her earlobe.
Apparently, Glawe and her pet snake Bart were just hanging out, as snakes and humans do, when Bart slithered his way through the hole in her ear.
I'll wait while you scream into a bag for ten minutes.
Turns out Bart was hanging out on her shoulders when Glawe thought he started attacking her head. "I like froze instantly," she told CNN about the nightmare event.
"If he forces his way through, he's gonna split my earlobe," Glawe said.
According to CNN, the snake wasn't attacking but "pythons just like hiding in holes."
Oh, great.
Glawe said she tried to get him out by herself but couldn't. So she said the fire department came. The fire department was unable to remove BART so instead, Glawe said she went to the emergency room, where doctors numbed her ear and lubed her and Bart up and were able to get the snake out of the hole.
And that, children, is why you never let a snake near your gauge hole.
Bart, said Glawe, is totally fine.
Thanks
On some level this is info I did not need to know. Think how gross those holes will lol in 25 years?00o
I think most of the people who do ear gauges are secretly hoping that someone’s going to come along with an open padlock and clamp it around their dangling lobe skin. LOL
“Can I have the key now?”
“Nope.”
“Crap. Who’s got some bolt cutters?”
Looks like they can fix the problem with a knife. Hopefully, they won’t hurt the snake when they are cutting the ear lobe.
Wow on that tattoo. Very patient tattoo artist, too. Detail oriented.
This video should be entitled “Got Goth”? or, “A Goth woman and her snake are never parted”.
attention-whore
I don’t completely understand it; unless that texture is all in the *art*.
I’m suspicious of a Photoshop here. Thas’all.
Two seconds with a sharp knife or razor blade and the snake will be free and unharmed.
You devil!! Aced me out before I sent it to Salamander. All I ever did a a kid was carry snakes around in my tee shirt.
How does crap like this even become newsworthy? Pythons are not at all dangerous, and a little one crawling through a hole in an earlobe is anything but scary or dangerous. What a waste of time from some ding-dong punk urinalist. The way this is written it sounds like the author is looking for a safe space.
>>Wonder where else shes had that snake.
>>
>>Snake is long
>>Seven miles...
Thanks for The Doors reference.
I had ‘em in my pockets.
All the time.
Ring-Necked snakes rule.
:)
There is not enough Xanax in the world for me to let a snake get that cozy with me.
It’s so ugly.
Well, it is Portland..................
