What about this guy? He's found a way to lull and/or befriend the snakes. Is he the real savior? If that's the case, then when will Sam get to use his taser?

Friendly Snakes on a Plane?

Is this one of the Keenan and Kel kids??

I don't think I can wait until 2006 for Snakes on a Plane. Why is it taking so long for the damn movie to come out??

WaitwaitwaitwaitWAIT. Is that the kid from Keenan & Kel who played Fat Albert? Maybe he could place a call to the Brown Hornet to take care of them thar snakes, and then perform a fun tune with the Junk Yard Band about what they all learned from their adventure.

i've just made this conversation with my brother, while he was half a sleep

me: what would you do if there were poisonous snakes on your plane?
brother: i would act rationally in order to minimalize the threat
me: and how would you do that?
brother: i would kill all the snakes by crashing the airplane into a building.

this morning i had to wake up at 11am (as if) to take a phone call from someone who is trying to help me publish the book i'm writing. i wouldn't call it an interview or professional call by any nature, but it also wasn't just a friendly chat.

in any event, he attempted to sound cultured and dropped the name of chuck klosterman, while asking how i could compare the book i'm working on to his "killing yourself to live" or whatever it's called.

so i said, "it's totally different. a less complex person couldn't possibly write such a book. it's the most carelessly solipstic thing i've ever skimmed. but that's chuck klosterman. he writes for SPIN. i mean... snakes on a plane."

the reference went wholly unnoticed.

i've been using it as a synonym in lieu of say, spouting a cliche like "this is what it is" or "what else can i say"

anyone else slipped it into everyday conversation yet?

Nope, but that all changes today!

I want to see this phrase described in most English reference texts in 5 years. That's how popular it should be.

I've been trying to insert it as an exclamation/interjection whenever i can think to. Why, snakes on a plane, look who's here! And so forth.

I exclaimed "snakes on a plane!" when the Sox won on Friday. The two jocks sitting next to me with the backwards Red Sox hats, the ones that got pissed everytime I cheered for the White Sox, suddenly looked confused.

"Snakes on a Plane" may have saved me from a barroom brawl.

Salut, "Snakes on a Plane"!

amen.

I gotta say. I have been ignoring this thing for too long.


Fucking Snakes on a plane.

best thing ever.

Has anyone considered the "porn movie spinoff name" potential for this movie?

"Snakes In Her Thang"

"Dang! He's got Snakes for a Wang"

"Snakes in a Plain Jane"

"Black 'Snakes' in a Plain White Chick"

Ad nauseum.....
