I have been wanting to add some bite (please pardon the pun) to this comic strip for a long time. Finally, I threw caution to the wind and voila: Scott ate a bird.
Sure the bird was cute, but frankly I think cows and birds get a lot better PR than they deserve. I see birds eating unguarded potato chips and I see them sitting on signs and I see their poop all over my car. What do they give back? Nothing. Name one thing birds give back. Exactly.
Cows give milk, meat, leather and some other stuff, but I still think they’re overrated. They seem humble, but they aren’t. They’re just playing us.
In short, it is indeed rude to eat dinner guests. However, if your dinner guest is a bird, he is probably thinking about how he would eat you if he were a little bigger. In that case, I think it’s okay to eat your guest. Perhaps I should make some time to Google the etiquette in such a situation, but for now I will go with my gut. Please pardon that pun too.
Brilliant!
I like it! Living on the edge.
What do birds give back?
1. Many of them are beautiful to look at.
2. Many of them sing beautifully.
3. We eat some of them (e.g.chickens, ducks), which can be delicious, and they can smell good when they are cooking.
That’s 4 out of the 5 senses that get pleasure from birds. OK?
