All I’m Getting Is Snake-Eyes
PETS & ANIMALS, RECEPTION, STUPID, USA, VET | HEALTHY | MARCH 9, 2018
(I come home to find that one of my pet snake’s eyes appears to be injured in some way. Since this is my first pet reptile, and I am not sure if this is something that needs immediate attention, I call the veterinary hospital of a very prestigious vet school nearby. Since it’s relatively late in the day, all the vets have left, but there are receptionists on call 24 hours a day.)
Receptionist: “Hi, you’ve called [Vet Hospital]. How can I help you?”
Me: *explains problem with my snake’s eye*
Receptionist: “I see. Is he blinking normally?”
Me: “Um… It’s a snake. It doesn’t have eyelids.”
