I am loud, I take competitive Counterstrike real seriously and like to talk poo poo about skill while being a confirmed hacker, and my parents will be super harsh and strict on me because my older bro became a drug dealer.

Oh and the drat bird gets ornery if she hasn't been fed a piece of fruit.

I call my birds my "babies" because I know it's the closest I will ever come to having children. My house smells like bird poo poo.

My parents got pet birds, and they're all the big parrots that live like 60 years so at some point me and my siblings will get to fight bitterly over who has to take care of them when our parents die/we stick them in a nursing home

How can you have your birbs out like that? Dont they poo poo everywhere and gnaw on everything like my rear end in a top hat bird used to do? That fucker ripped everything apart

he will poo poo and chew things, yes. thats why we only take him out occasionally, mostly he lives in a big cage. but Petey is pretty smart, not like typical dumb birds. we used to have a dove too, and never let that thing out it was retarded

my grandparents had two african grays. it turns out it is possible to exist for decades in a house filled with loud screeching every morning at or before 6 am

also the birds outlived the humans so if you'd rather your pet see you die then the other way around, a bird might be a good choice

The trick is that you're under no obligation to take care of some drat birds. Once your parents croak take the birds directly to the dump.

Please do not take in the birds if you aren't interested in properly taking care of them and don't fob them off to somebody who doesn't care. Birds who live in bad and uncaring homes are the most depressing things, they tend to develop extreme behavioral problems like biting everyone, screaming constantly and plucking out their own feathers. Look for a sanctuary instead.

I hit a pidgeon with my car a few weeks ago and I had to pull over to the side of the road because I had a minor panic attack. Poor Mister Pibbg. (I gave my victim a name)

Otherwise I have seagull buddies at work that I toss fries to when people are sitting outside at lunch, and then i go inside and let said people deal with the 10 or other gullbuddies that show up screeching and parading around. Seagulls best bird.

Nice troll. Even bird-liking people hate seagulls.
