But he has no arms...
So he's all: "Ehn!" [head curls around monitor in lieu of arms]
Nice Hawaiian shirt mousepad and anerable snake-a-tude, Lesley C. Since this behbeh snake doesn't have fur, please expect major Nuff action on this one...

I lof he.
Snakes are perfect and their skin is actually very soft and snuggly. But hold carefully or he pee on you!
I like this snake. She's got sass!
I'm not much of a snake fan, but anybody who likes CO is a friend of mine!
I like:
1) the snake's dramatic patterning vs. the stark MacBook
2) the obligatory Cute Overload page showing in Safari
3) the fact that Mr. Bounce isn't nomming upon this snake's hiney
4) SNOXCU!
shweet widdle snakie. he feels teh lof. it's twoo!
What a lovely snake! My snakes also frequently like to explore my monitor. I think the brightness of it attracts them.
A friend of mine had a snake that always had to curl up on my shoulder when I visited. It is very nice to be wanted...
wanted to make a snake and apple reference but i think it would be too forced
Amazing. Last night I was thinking about how CO could use a few more snakes.
Awww. I like snakies.
snakes are silky. i'm not sure if i could see them as cute, but they sure are important critters and i respect their abilities.
Aww, snake hug! Awesome.
Also, has anyone noticed that almost every computer pictured on CO has been a Mac? I wonder if there's a hidden agenda there... :D (mac person myself, so not complaining)
hehehe awesome post! Ehn-ing snaksies!!
I'm scared of snakes!
DO NOT WANT!
This is obviously a well-loved snake judging by the smoothness and shinyness of his skin. His markings are lovely. Cute, err no, but *I* think he is beautiful nonetheless :)
Cute laptop! Oh, right, the snake.
smmooooooovvveeee.
i think the lil snake is looking for the gray kitteh-
"maybe he izzzz behind here"
is a pretteh snake, but cannot really cuddle
( though i have never had one to try )
i guess, yes. this can be cute. No nuffin outta me.
Peekin' head over 'puter to say Oh hai! I like snakey! Snake has good taste.
I notice that the mouse is missing.
@Persephone, maybe there should be a Mac category ?
Joe,
* snapple *
Aww, trying to hug something with no arms... CUTE OR SAD?
Mike,
very funny!
No nuffs from me!! Beautiful baby snake!
scary!!!
liz is correct - the thought of a fuzzy grey kitteh in a cooking pot has the little fella all excited and happy. Since the little grey kitteh is in no danger at alls - - CUTE!
(P.S., I get all my CO on a Mac...)
lol!! i agree with redsrevenge, SO FUNNY/sad :''(
what is:
-nuff action
-mr. bounce (im lookin at you, theo)
-SNOXCU (still looking, theo!) is it snake overoad xtreme close up?
I have to say, this is the first time I've seen a snake here or anywhere else and not thought, "EWWWW!" Wouldn't necessarily label it as cute, but it's a step in the right direction for me!
Snakes are very very cuddly. Our four corn snakes certainly are. They're not furry, but are very silky, as one poster above. More snakes on CO, please! Yesssssss!
Soo cute! I love snakes and reptiles! I used to want a red rat snake as a child, but my father would have none of it. sigh...
Wow, that snake looks a heck of a lot like a King Snake I once owned until life got in the way. We never could figure out exactly what kind of snake she was because of her odd coloring. It was almost a mix between a King Snake and a Milk Snake. Don't suppose anyone knows the exact breed?
liz, snakes are the best cuddlers of all, especially the big ones. They wrap around you to absorb your body heat, thus creating one big twisty cuddle. I do think, however, that they might be hard to snorgle.
Reasons I want a McSnakersons:
1.Snakes are fasicnating and beautiful creatures.
2. As demonstrated here, they can also be cute!
3.They can provide excellent prank-playing opportunities *shifty eyes* Just kidding.
SQUEEEEEEEEE!
Soooooo cute!
Wookit da widdow face!!
Ahn...
ok brinnann-
next chance i get i will not pass up a possible snake-cuddle. (will avoid the snorgle, i dont think a snake out like ya blowin raspberries in its, "belly?")
Allegra, I know you asked Theo, but I thought I'd try to help out.
- To understand nuff action, here's the definition for nuff: http://www.squidgrid.com/cute/Glossary.htm#Nuff
(Here's the rest of the glossary, also found under the "More, More, More" heading on the far right: http://www.squidgrid.com/cute/Glossary.htm )
- Mr.Bounce is the marmie that Rikki is sitting on: http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2007/07/meer-cat.html
- Not positive about SNOXCU, but I'm thinking it may be Snake Nosicle Overload Xtreme Close Up.
Well, liz, if you did try to blow raspberries on his belly, you'd have a good chance of not missing it since it pretty much runs the whole length of his body. If you try the raspberries, let me know how that turns out. ;)
i think this is a ball python? not sure. an old friend of mine had a couple of them. i could 'wear' one around my neck, which really freaked out the neighbors.
CUTE! But my friend who has snakes teased me once for talking to them like one talks to fuzzy animals ("Hiiiii, Cutie! Look at you! You're so pretty! Where are you going now, hunh?").
Snakes! Snakes are so cool! The last time it warmed up unexpectedly in the middle of summer, I was running along and nearly stepped on a tiny garter snake.
Snake: OMG!
Me: OMG!
Snake: *coil*Do not eat! I bite yu! omg giant human!
Me: You are so cute!!
Snake: I bite! I swear!
Me: So cute!!
In summation, snakes are cool.
Warmed up unexpectedly in the middle of winter, even. Durr. Although sometimes a warm day in the summer is odd for the Northeast too.
I'm going to cut into the cute-speak here...
@jmanna: It appears to be an Eastern Milk Snake -

Snakes don't have breeds, per se - in this case, the species has a wide variety of colors and patterns in subspecies. Some species are bred for specific genetic color "morphs".
OK, continue gushin over this prosh mcsnakersons.
Wheeee, snakey! Sooooo pretty. I actually just checked the comments to roll my eyes at the nuffers, so delighted to see they have not made much of an appearance. I appreciate that Holy Cuteness and Mary Coffins were able to express their personal non-love of snakes without telling everyone else that they are wrong for being fond of the suborder Serpentes. Sssssssssssnakes!
I hate, hate, hate legless reptiles. This is well-known. HOWEVER.
The ones that are not as thick as my arms, well-cared for, and clearly not in a predatory pose (or in their natural environs hidden where I can't see them) do not send me into paroxysms of fear.
Thus, while I do NOT concede or agree that CO needs "more" legless reptiles, I WILL admit to the following:
It's kind of a cute picture. As long as I don't have to be there in real life. My best to the devil's familiar and it's brave human caretaker.
Meg, that's no mousepad! It's a coaster. (I have a set of 4 just like it.)
Snake + Apple = Biblical Allegory
(Allegory of what I've no idea)
Allegra -- OK, let's see...

3) Right on. http://www.squidgrid.com/cute/Glossary.htm#COXCU
...oh, and thanks, BrinnAnn
Snakes: not cuddly. BUT, I see how they might be interpreted as cute. This little guy just kind of gives me the heebie jeebies, but I don't like slithery things.
Random question. Do snakes yawn? That strikes me as being kind of horrific to watch and somehow kind of hilarious too.
Mr Snake Hips McSlitherpants here is pretty cute, but if I walked into my computer room to see a snakey snorgling MY computer, you all would hear the scream!
