Pigeon Rant

cherryghost · 2013-03-02 17:50:04

Pigeons in Dublin are so rude. I was walking home from work the other morning morning and one swooped down from above and landed bang on my face. Everyone around me was laughing too to rub it in. Can I report this pigeon to the Gardai for assault?

Yes

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

I know a good pidgeon detective if you're interested. He specializes in homing pidgeons, the kind that attacked you at a guess.

I don't usually mind when there is a bird on my face.

Definately report it. I'd expect that pigeon to receive a very long sentence for serious fowl play.

I'm offended that this was moved to the cuckoos nest, we're talking about pidgeons here.
