- AndrewDB, on 08/03/2008, -5/+65John McCain's thought process?
- krystofr, on 08/03/2008, -2/+57That snake is just compensating for a huge penis.
- DeskFlyer, on 08/03/2008, -3/+44I'm guessing this thing would not make the cut for Snakes on a Plane 2.

- onoitzphil, on 08/03/2008, -4/+30New insults: Hung like a Leptotyphlops carlae. Burned!
- 9bpm9, on 08/03/2008, -2/+23Looks like a worm.
- ericdano, on 08/03/2008, -3/+23Should have been named KateMosstyphlops
- filldeviant, on 08/03/2008, -3/+22*Hesitates epic burn*
- crmecozzi, on 08/03/2008, -2/+17It's not the size that counts :[
- dfsjdkflasjk, on 08/04/2008, -1/+14A 4 inch long strip of spaghetti.
- mewho, on 08/03/2008, -4/+16It's cute!
- RyanBlack, on 08/04/2008, -0/+12That's what she said.
- Oea420, on 08/03/2008, -1/+10it actually makes a lot of sense... i mean.. if you weren't actively looking for these supersmall animals, who would find them?
Most people would pass that snake off as an earthworm. - bitterbug, on 08/03/2008, -0/+8What's scary about it?
- RyanBlack, on 08/04/2008, -1/+9I want one as a pet :O
- Rhelim, on 08/04/2008, -0/+7That quarter is ***** huge!
- Anfidurl, on 08/04/2008, -0/+7I'm surprised scientists didn't discover this sooner. All they had to do was look between the thighs of men who drive Hummer H2's.

- joltjake, on 08/04/2008, -0/+6Oh God, let the dick jokes begin.
- Dested, on 08/03/2008, -4/+9Warning: do not read while eating spaghetti.
- bhavinp, on 08/04/2008, -0/+4Unless theres like a million of them. That would be scary, they can go into your ears.
- hartley, on 08/03/2008, -1/+5Lets see, Drudge constantly posts links to the biggest stories of the minute.
Digg is a user submitted site where the stories with the most/quickest popularity raise to the front page.
I'm shocked a story on Drudge is on the front page. /sarcasm - B08ama, on 08/03/2008, -0/+4I wouldn't worry about it.
- paikE, on 08/04/2008, -0/+4I hope you're joking.
- Torx, on 08/03/2008, -2/+5I would very much welcome that snake into my yard, termites suck!
- bob_the_alien, on 08/03/2008, -0/+3Exactly, non-venomous, so why should anyone be scared.
While allot smaller I'd compare it to our Common variety of Garden snakes, small, non-venomous, and doesn't hurt even when it bites, kids everywhere play with them like they are pets, Not Scary At All..
I'd have to say if I fount something like this, I would prolly fish with it, cuz seriously it doesn't look much different than an earthworm. - meamog, on 08/03/2008, -2/+5It's pretty great that the same biologist has helped find the world's smallest frog, lizard, and now, snake.
- nixpix66, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2his noodleyness the flying spaghetti monster has sent his children to wreak havoc on the Earth!! EVERYONE RUN!
- bhavinp, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2showed him.
- Managore, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2It's pretty great that the same biologist who invented the world's first shrink ray helped find the world's smallest frog, lizard, and now, snake.
- SneakyNinja, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2The snake in the article...
OH I GET IT!!! you were making a reference to...
ah... very funny sir... very funny indeed. - Ladymongoose, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2I guessing you could easily get it past TSA.
- snoogit, on 08/04/2008, -0/+2OMG cover your eyes!
"Snakes have lived since the time of the dinosaurs. The oldest known fossil snakes date from around 100 million years ago. The first snakes -- thought to have evolved from lizards -- actually had very small limbs.
Hedges thinks the new one may be at or near the minimum possible size for snakes. It lays a single slender egg that takes up a major part of the mother snake's body, he said."

Actually I wouldn't mind seeing one of these snake eggs, they'd be like BBs or something. - GTRagnarok, on 08/04/2008, -1/+3*/facepalm ASCII*

- adamantium, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1How will Jackie Chan's kitty cat fair against this most minute opponent of treachery?
- ngresonance, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1So many jokes... yet no comments on the fact that it will likely go extinct soon because 98% of its habitat has been destroyed, and what's left is under threat.
- ErickStevenson, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Not bad =)
- snoogit, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1The 404 is more than just an atheist nightmare.

Picture with a penny. These can be thin as spaghetti too but if you find them in your yard like I did it's not a good sign because it means you've got ground termites and ants. - DiggMistress, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1thats kinda sweet !
- Telionis, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Ohhh, so cute...
- GRTWHT, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1Thanks for the info, but now I'm not sure which it was that I saw!
When I was stationed on Guam (a lot of years ago) I found one of these micro snakes in the bathroom and mistaked it for a worm until I saw it flick it's tongue - very shocking and kind of creepy to realize that there were snakes that small crawling around. - rhcp430, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1but will it blend?
- Stagle, on 08/04/2008, -0/+1apparently you people don't like futurama!
- Avaseal, on 08/04/2008, -1/+2I was gonna pseudo para-phrase Family Guy's Blue Harvest..but then I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the true unit of measurement for a thought process was.
