There's no explaining phobias to other people, and no reason to apologize for them. If you have a mortal dread of the sound of people scraping their teeth along a blackboard, then you do. If it's bugs, then it's bugs. If you have a deep-seated fear of Salma Hayek, though, you could be proactive and carry around a snake, because apparently she doesn't like them.

Really doesn't like them.

Which means the snake in "Dusk 'Til Dawn" was animatronic or CGI? Someone explain that. Because she seemed to like the snake in that scene. Really like it.
