A Bear-Snake is a bear (the animal of the Ursidae family) lacking both arms and both legs, creating a fuzzy snake-like creature. These limbs could be lost in a freak bear accident or the bear could have simply been born without them. This term can be taken literally, or a human could be referred to as a bear-snake if he/she is acting or saying things that perhaps a bear without limbs might do/say. Also, the word "bear" in the phrase could be replaced with another thing, if one were to encounter an object lacking the usual number of limbs. "Bear-Snake" is a versatile word, and is open to many different interpretations.
It is important to note that, while the meaning of this term changes based on context, the vocal inflections of the hyphenated words always remain as such: the word "bear" is spoken in the upper register, then the pitch decreases when the speaker says "snake". A veteran of the word "bear-snake" would increase pitch DURING the initial "bear", then decrease pitch whilst saying "snake" (creating a mountain-shaped pitch vs. time graph). The general idea is that the phrase is said in a sing-song fashion.

Get the barenaked ladies mug.1. Like James Hetfield, a dude too manly for you. He dwells in the deep dark suburbia of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, but occassionaly goes on expiditions to the wilderness of Upstate to kill bears with his bare hands. Pun intended. He is also known for making sweet, sweet rock, and drives a chariot. He is descended from the Greek Gods, but also has a streak of Odin somewhere in his blood since Vikings are so metal. His real name is too cool for you, and therefore he is known by his diminutive to the non-exclusive community: Mutsy.

Get the Mutsy the Bearslayer mug.A completely useless file sharing program that's nearly impossible to get for free. It sucks only a bit more than LimeWire, but still beats the shit out of Kazaa.
