Shoppers got more than they bargained for when they discovered a giant python on top of an ATM. New South Wales woman Dianne Mancell was at a St. George Bank ATM in Lismore, In New South Wales, on Wednesday when she came face-to-face with the giant python. She took a photo of the snake as it rested on top of the ATM while a crowd of shoppers gathered to watch.

I’m not afraid of snakes even the rattlers. Respect yes fear no. Once chased a rattler out of my yard with a garden hose cause i had no snake shot. Turns out they don’t like cold water very much

I’m glad that SOMEBODY actually included the picture, which “should” have been in the excerpt or an immediately succeeding post.

I know. Many years ago after I first started coming here there used to be a small meme that said something to the effect of:

"This post is incomplete without any pictures to accompany it."

Or words to that effect. I miss seeing it anymore.

Where I live it’s Cotton Mouths that are to be feared. Have had them curl up on the the bottom step out my back door before. Eeeeerily spooky.

Yes. Never feared those until our son moved to the South. Will need to learn how to recognize them. I understand they got the name ‘cottonmouth’ as their mouths when open look completely white.

Reptile pets are a minority taste, to be sure.

The snake seemingly hissed:

All your money are belong to ME.

[Ron H.]

Yes and they are usually black in color or very dark.

Diamond backed rattlesnake cooked over a campfire with some bbq sauce makes a fine meal. How does python taste???

[OldMissileer]

EVERYTHING in Australia is out to kill you, even their ATMs.

“All your money belong to ME.” Apparently the snake is an American Democrat Candidate for President.

Thanks, didn’t have my thinker turned on. Kinda embarrassing actually, especially being the family and I spent two weeks vacation there (Sidney and Melbourne) while expats in the PRC.
