Pet snake gets stuck in woman's stretched earlobe

Glawe said the Ball Python snake, named Bart, was too big to fit all the way through her lobe, and she was unable to extract it on her own. Glawe further explained that she wears gages in her earlobes but had taken them out.

...

A friend informed concerned commenters that doctors at Portland Adventist Hospital made a slight cut in Glawe’s ear and used Vaseline while further stretching the lobe with a plastic tool so that the snake could wiggle out. Glawe told another commenter that her ear was numbed before the procedure and that the experience hurt “a little,” but Bart was unharmed.

This has been going round for a week on my forums.

Few are buying the story

Beeps don’t move fast enough to “zip through” unawares, like she claims.

A stupid stunt for “cute” hits gone wrong, IMO.

Most of us see the fattest place was already through.

This makes no sense.

What percentage of girls under 35 have six or more tats and sleeves

I’m guessing 20%

Usually a socio economic thing but not always

See Miley Cyrus mom

Ageeed she put that fella there and couldn’t get him out

Hell just slice that ear lobe and don’t hurt the snake

Ain’t snake fault

Maybe she fed it.

Not safe for work, children, or small rodents.

Thank heavens, this story and the potential threesome with the dog park lady, I'm finally finishing all the case of popcorn from the inauguration!

Time to head to the store for more. Might actually live dangerously and get some Carmel corn!

Thanks for clarifying. I’ve only seen the pic on a tiny screen.

And the poor snake, too.

[Salamander]

My suspicion as well.

Stupid git.

Snakes are very collapsible.

He coulda made it.

Starts with a silly little earlobe,
and before you know it ...

[Salamander]

We’ll never know.

Thread is gone.

Snakes are known for their devious decisiveness.

[Salamander]

I would totally wear that...

Here you go.

[Slings and Arrows]

Thread pulled. :( Must’ve been a good one.

[Slings and Arrows]

I believe it. In retrospect, I shouldn’t have slandered the snake.

[Slings and Arrows]

Indeed.
