Faking the Snake

Fake the snake: to add in a small specific detail in order to make your lie seem more convincing.
(DrDisastor) I worked with a guy who was down on his luck. He was really a strange guy but was nice enough that I didn't think anything of him. The poor bastard would walk several miles to work but never missed a shift. A few of us would pick him up/drop him off when the weather was bad or we felt like it. One night dropping him off we got to talking about the ladies at work and who we thought were attractive. He mentions he only really likes this one girl and with a cold realistic tone and stare tells me "And if you say anything I WILL kill you.". Riiiiight, NP man your secret is safe with me.

Fast forward a few months and creep just stops showing up to work. After some light digging we find he has been arrested for kidnapping, false imprisonment, and theft of a snake. Apparently he reconnected with an ex-GF and broke into her apartment, stole her pet snake, CAME BACK, jumped her and tied her up all the while wearing a fake cop outfit. No clue how he got caught or WTF actually happened. Dude had priors and was locked up for some time for that.

(Duke__Leto) The stolen pet snake makes this story completely credible because it’s such an unnecessary and random detail in the story.

(A_Voe) I officially coin the term faking the snake. Fake the snake: to add in a small specific detail in order to make your lie seem more convincing.

One-Eyed Snake Salute

The one-eyed snake solute is a respectful gesture, mainly accomplished by people with a penis, where the penis is shown for a period of time.
This term bears resemblance to the Internet meme "Dicks out for Harambe"

Do Not Ride Snake

When a video game gives you an explicit warning to not do something because something REALLY BAD will happen if you do. The ultimate goal is to pique the player's curiosity enough to make them do the thing that they've been told not to do, just to see what happens.
"Do Not Ride Snake" is from the infamous rage-inducing game "Getting Over It (With Bennett Foddy)."

Near the end of the game, there is a very long snake in the air, and a sign above that says "DO NOT RIDE SNAKE" in big letters. The snake is positioned in such a precarious place that it is very easy to accidentally fall onto it. If the player "rides" the snake, it will take them back to the very beginning of the game.
