This table is a guide to the Worlds most venomous snakes. The worst are at the top of the table. All of the snakes listed on this page are for the experts only! This information was supplied by  Steve Irwin. All of these snakes can be found in Australia.

As to spiders. Our White-tail spiders are not as bad as the Recluse but will similarly ulcerate and rot flesh in a similar fashion but not quite as bad I don't think.
Our funnel web and redbacks will kill you though.

No more that sharks or crocodiles but yeah

I don't know how you people live there.  I don't know how the aboriginals managed to maintain their populations.  Must be a lot of  :missionary: goin on  :zoinks:

Useless Personal Trivia:

With the exception of the Gulf Coast, I can not stand the region of the United States I live in.

I'm the only Atheist in my family.

All I could think of right now.

I grew up traveling between living with my mom in Florida and my dad and grandparents in Connecticut from ages 11-18.  School in Florida all vacations in Connecticut.  And flew to Connecticut and back at least three times a year.

What about it don't you like?  How long have you lived there?

The Christians try to shove their god done your throat every chance they get.  The rednecks, don't get me fucking started. A few people that know of my atheism (including some of my own family) have told me i'm going to "hell" before. I have lived in the south my entire life and I can not wait for the chance to move to a more Atheist-friendly part of the US.

I grew up in Alabama, and there's a lot about it to like as well, like the way people are so friendly and go out of their way to help one another.

There was a time that I had car trouble near Montgomery and a lady kept her store open late so she could wait with me for my dad to come, rather than leave me to wait alone.  Another time I had car trouble near Birmingham and a man stopped and helped me push my car off I-20, then gave me a ride to a nearby exit where he knew a safe place for me to wait for a tow truck and even let me borrow his cell phone to call my mom.

What difference does it really make if people are telling you that you will go to a place that you don't believe even exists?

I have seen southern hospitality before, but I have also seen the "dark side" of southern hostility. Also, the constant attempts to convert me be my family and others I know gets annoying at times. Annoying to the point where I have told my family that its not going to happen and to stop trying, and they have listened somewhat. The south is livable for the most part.

"The South" is a pretty big place.  Sounds like you have had bad experiences with the small parts of it you have been stuck in.

I lived in small town Georgia for 5 years. My parents and sister are still there.

I sleep better when it rains.

Yes, just now. Release party at work.
Release party?
