To throw a snake is to do something memorable and unexpected. Typically, an impulsive decision is made when a new variable is introduced to a situation. The original plan is then abandoned in pursuit of what is perceived to be the greater adventure.
'Throw snakes' was originally coined by Cracked columnist Chris Bucholz in his article, 'How to Reinvent Yourself During Your First Week at College.' In the article, Bucholz advises a hypothetical student to do more things that are actually fun, and not just time-killing fun. When the student is unsure of this advice, Bucholz rephrases, "Play less video games, and throw more snakes at things."
