Near Newton, Texas, just west of Louisiana, artist Christopher Reynolds and his wife, Nina, spotted a large black snake on the side of the road.

Reynolds said he stopped to take a few pictures when his wife suggested he take a video, the Houston Chronicle reported.

Suddenly, where there was one snake, there were now two. In a nightmare world, both would then turn and charge the couple. But no, That did not happen. Instead, the larger black snake makes his escape and the smaller snake is left to wonder what the heck just happened.

Watch full video of the two snakes here. Warning: some viewers may find language offensive.

Reynolds is heard on the video saying that the snake trying to eat was uncomfortable with humans around while he digested his meal, so he barfed him up in order to make a quicker escape. This National Geographic story confirmed that is indeed a typical defense mechanism for snakes.

But the unusual part is that the eaten snake was still alive, if somewhat understandably shaken.

I've been through the bedbug nightmare. It's the paranoia of having things crawling all over you while you're asleep that gets to your head, not the actual bites. I vividly remember sitting up many nights with duct tape, catching all of the bastards one by one.

How does one gather so many bedbugs?

Well that's just the wrong reason.

You're supposed to unleash bedbugs at the city office when they decide to back the slumlord refusing to deal with them in his buildings until-and-after they've infested every floor, because he's a big contributor to the mayor.

That's when you give them bedbugs. That's when you give them ALL of the bedbugs.
