And we wonder why seagulls laugh.
A little dry humor from those europeons
my grandfather, Frank Ingraham has a plaque on the Columbia river at the Stonehenge memorial. WWI.
I fully understand his attitude, I fucken hate seagulls. They are the predatory free-shit army of any marine or coastal environment. I remember that great shot by a fast baseball pitcher who smashed one in mid-flight when it flew directly in front of the batter, should happen more often. Fucken seagulls, the Democrats of the bird world.
When I was a kid we would haul the camper to the beach for a couple weeks. Early one morning the family went and rented one of those 5 seater bikes to ride up and down the boardwalk. Mom was up front and steering us along and all was well until a seagull dropped one on her head. She ran all of us into the railing and a 55 gallon metal trash can and we went ass over tea kettles. We still laugh about it.
Years ago we went to Edinburgh Zoo. As we were standing watching the penguins a seagull dropped a load which hit my shoulder and ran down the back of my shirt. FFS did it stink – the gulls pinch the penguins’ fish and that, duly processed, is what I got. We tried with tissues and wet wipes to get rid of the mess and I soldiered on until we got back to base. We washed that shirt twice before giving up and binning it to get rid of the smell.
Sea gulls are the flying rats of the sea shore. If one shits on your car, which they invariably do when it’s parked within a mile or so of the coast and sometimes in grocery store and fast food parking lots miles inland, the shit spot will be devoid of paint in a matter of days.
