smokie36 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I was in a taxi today at Ramkhamhaeng and we ran over and killed a snake. Is this lucky or not? Should we be visiting the temple tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tafia Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Not good luck...seems its lucky if the snake crosses in front of you. I have been in cars previously who stop to let the snake cross 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rgs2001uk Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I didnt think the traffic on Ram ever moved fast enough to run over and kill a snake. Anyway you should have been on a leisurely cruise on the San Saeb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderer13 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Once I ran over a snake and killed it and the dirty looks that I received from Thais made me feel like I was a criminal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Killing a snake with a car is so passé. What you never need to do apparently, is kill a snake inside your house. A good friend of mine, ex- Rhodesian army and thus quite nifty with the panga, lopped the head of a cobra in the lounge at his home about 30-odd years ago. His wife and MIL were apopleptic and assured him that the curse was truly upon them. I am not sure if the curse has expired yet or if he is still married. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chittychangchang Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I've seen someone eat the the still pumping heart of a dead snake and swallow it whole with some saki..... He said it's the nearest a man can get to feeling pregnant with a heart beating in his belly. He had the sweats for a few days after mind. Most thais consider it good luck....a free meal.

pattayadingo Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Last time I ran over a snake the g/f's brother jumped on his m/c and sped off down the road to collect it. He sold the gonads for a few 100 Baht and ate the rest. Seems the snakes gonads are good for virility. Good luck? It was for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrain Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Once I ran over a snake and killed it and the dirty looks that I received from Thais made me feel like I was a criminal! That may have been because you crushed it that bad that it wasn't eatable anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Newman Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 You could be onto something here, kill any snake you can find, then try to make out numbers by the way the dead snake lays on the ground, and then sell the lottery tips to to other snake ghost believers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibeachlovers Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Once I ran over a snake and killed it and the dirty looks that I received from Thais made me feel like I was a criminal! I find that hard to believe. Where I live, Thais kill snakes on sight. Perhaps it was because they had been looking forward to eating it, and it was no longer edible after you squashed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) The only way I could ever kill a snake over here would be by outrunning my Thai relatives and getting there first. Edited January 17, 2013 by canuckamuck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
