New From SyFy: Cryo-Mice Of The Future!
(I am talking with some of my officemates and the topic of snakes comes up for some reason. I have a pet corn snake, of whom I am very fond. One of my coworkers is pretty terrified of snakes, but he has a lot of questions about them even so.)
Coworker: “How big is this thing?”
Me: “About two to three feet. Not venomous, pretty chill.”
Coworker: “What does it eat?”
Me: “He eats mice. That was the one weird thing I had to get used to: keeping mice in the freezer.”
Coworker: “He eats frozen mice?”
Me: “No, you have to thaw them out in hot water or they can’t digest them.”
Coworker: “So, then what? The mouse comes back to life?”
Other Coworker: *facepalming* “[Coworker], it’s not cryosleep. It’s a freezer.”
(I was too busy giggling to answer. I’m sure my snake would love it if they actually came back to life, but… no.)
