My Pet peeve is snakes. When I was 15 years old, in yard of my house had little snakes. My sister liked to play with snakes. I felt sick. When I was watching T.V. I saw the big snakes. I didn't look because. I am scared of snakes. Sometimes the snakes bite and infect people and cause some people to die. In Miami one girl bought a bag of spinach. It had a little snake in this bag. The snake bit her and she died. After that I had more reasons not to like snakes.
