When Collette went to take the snake out of its aquarium on June 18, it lunged and bit him.

Here, that needs just a little help, in order for it to be proper journalistic material:

Copperhead bite isn’t that bad unless they hit a vein or something central.
Mostly just swelling.
That being said, Kid was a jerk.

I did too, only it was a cotten-mouth that got me.
Sick as a dog for about 6 hours. Parents came home, mom freaked out.... dad shrugged and said. "He's alive, he'll be ok, No point wasting money on a MD....."

Almost all venomous snake bites are a case of Stupid. “19-year-old man” is standard, and I’ll bet there’s a “Hold my beer ...” in there somewhere, too.
