What's the Use of Being a Snake Charmer?

Ecclesiastes 10

11 If a snake bites before you charm it,
what’s the use of being a snake charmer?

This makes me lol. I mean, Solomon is going on and on about the ironies of life, and how everything is meaningless, and then there is this verse. Well, DUH! If a snake bites you before you charm it, what’s the use of being a snake charmer? I mean, what IS the use of being a snake charmer, anyway? Thank You, Lord for making me smile in a whimsical kind of way in the midst of what would otherwise be a pretty depressing chunk of Scripture from Ecclesiastes!
