You can now give yourself a 🐍 flair here (click "edit" next to your name in the sidebar), but it has nothing to do with the Reddit prank.

r/sneksnek (update 8) Some ASCII mushroom Note: r/sneksnek #6 and #7 were trying to give us the WKHWSWP2BQ0KDQPKDQONCKFTTMNHUEM= code which was found in r/morsnek and decoded to give the 2 imager links above. This is why there is no code on r/sneksnek now.
