Teacher "Lek": This can only mean one thing - a lottery win - as snake gobbles chicken

Caption: Giant five meter python

 

A retired teacher who woke to the sound of dogs barking this morning discovered that she had a visitor. 

 

Gobbling down one of her chickens was a five meter long python. 

 

The snake had got up on a wall by two parked cars and was swallowing a hen that was sitting on eggs she had just laid in a basket. 

 

The snake catchers were called - it was quite a tricky operation as the snake would not go quietly. This was probably because the 30 kilogram serpent was disturbed while eating, reported Sanook.

 

But after about 15 minutes the snake was safely in a fertilizer sack and on its way "back to nature".

 

Laddawan or retired teacher Khru Lek, 63, said that this was the first and only time in 30 years at her address that an animal had invaded. 

 

She said that her and the neighbors were convinced they would win the lottery with the lucky numbers principally with her house being number 7 and the two cars parked in the drive - registration plates 9759 and 8069.

30 kilograms and 30 years should be 3030, or 0303 or some other combination perhaps?

Gawd, how many generations of students did this retired teacher infect with superstitious nonsense, and reinforce the pervasive character defect of not taking responsibility for one's decisions and actions.

 

So, this random event with a random snake is conjured to be a good luck omen by the village idiots.  It's gone public in the media, so it's Sink or Swim time for the mystics and as always, they have a 50/50 chance of being right.

 

If Lek wins the lotto, it will confirm the mystical powers, and the amazing legend will be passed on to the next generation. 

 

If Lek doesn't win, the mystics won't have anything to say, they never do.  Lek will be crestfallen and seek counsel from the council of wise elders, who will pick their nose and conjure an addendum to the tradition --  When a snake crosses your path once in 30 years, you must do a hand-stand in the corner of the room which faces East, then use your left hand to rub your belly anti-clockwise; lucky numbers will then come to you in a lucky vision.

RIP Chicken

 

All these incompetents should be charged for eggs breaking.

Had a small snake creeping into my condo kitchen on 7 floor in middle of Bangkok last week. Snakes here are amazing.

Well, I rest my case - this is the 21st century (outside Thailand, that is). 

With such teachers ........ no wonders. I am - honestly - surprised that the kids leaving such teaching are able to tie their shoe laces. 

Guess that is why the local yodelers here have a "teacher's day".

You simply cannot invent such hilarious stories - how bad for the kids ????

Was retired correct or should it have been retard teacher?

The day after I saw this snake eating a frog in our garden I won 8000 baht on the lottery. Just maybe it is a sign of good luck. 20190313_100149.thumb.jpg.acc44cf61c3466f11baa94a9a936747e.jpg

Keep your mental problems to your self.

Being superstitious, taking something as a sign of luck, is not a bad thing. After all all Thai I know have some superstitious ideas but live an ordinary life. Hint: they simply do what they do every day.

Being superstitious is completely common all over the world. It seems you are simply not aware about your own culture ... where ever you come from.

Rejecting superstitious bullshit is not a mental problem.

 

Apologizing for and trying to normalize it is. You might want to keep THAT to yourself.  ????

Yes it is.

 

I guess you are the guy who enters a shop and says: "Hello!" instead of doing a wai (which you hate doing) and saying "Sawadee Khrap!"

You're not just a thin skinned Captain Save-a-Thai, you're quite an athlete as well.

At least I don't conclude when a Thai says "That will be good luck in the lottery" that he is a wacko ... like you do.

A pooying gobbling down my one-eyed trouser snake last night felt like winning the lottery.

We had an Iguana removed from our property, It was a fairly big size, For days Thai People came to get our house number for the lottery as they said it was lucky,

Too lazy to go back and check but I don't think I said they were wacko.   Temporarily maybe, but not certifiable. 

 

Same as my post, you simply made that up and pretended I said it so you could then engage in some fake outrage and Thaier than Thou virtue signaling.   You're just distracting from the obvious truth in the OP, which you can't handle.

This luck/karma business can be ruthless. 

 

One minute you're the lucky lizard being fed grapes by a throng of greedy, religious fakes lusting after materialistic gain.  

 

If they win, life is good for the lizard. 

 

If they don't, poor bastard winds up in the soup pot for dinner.

Would have been easy for you to scroll back to see what you wrote.

So, yes. You consider Thais as wackoes because they have some "culture" you don't want to be part of.

Good luck with that attitude.

Every culture has superstitious things, and no culture actually really believes in it. Are you still throwing rice on fresh married couples? Why actually rice? Rice does not belong to YOUR culture. So why do you do it? Wow ... likely it is super simple: out of habit.

What crime did the school teacher actually commit? Oh .... she said it is lucky to have a snake in the house ...
