Canadian Geese, the animal that Canada stored all its rage inside and sent to battle the United States

How dare you. I live for seasonal goose fly bys

[โ€“] RoquetteQueen@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do honestly love hearing the honking and watching them fly by. I always point it out to my kids. I've seen lots of Canada geese in my life and they've never hissed at me, so I don't have a problem with them other than the poops that are just everywhere.

You've been fortunate lol

I've been on walks in parks that got too close to someone's nest and been charged. Those maniacs have serated tongues and beaks. I'm not kidding. You don't want to be bit by these maniacs

Oh I know they're viscious! I've just been lucky and always kept enough distance between myself and them.

If you got a problem with Canadian Gooses, you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that one marinate

[โ€“] ArtieShaw@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The thing about Canada geese for me is the weird little poos. I don't mind the aggression, the flocking behavior, or any of the other antisocial nonsense that they've adopted from their namesake country.

It's the poos. They linger around for weeks.

Canadian geese, Australian Emus, sounds like there's some interesting AI image ideas here

[โ€“] Mothra@mander.xyz 6 points 1 year ago (4 children)

What have Emus ever done to you??? :(

Not op, but an emu bit me as a child. Havent trusted them ever since. Just look at their shifty eyes.

Nothing it's like they don't even care about me :(

Fucker stole my dimmie when i was six. Snatched it right out of my hand

[โ€“] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh noo, I love them both :(

I got distracted by the wrong aspect of that comment lol

I was picturing Canadian Geese and Australian Emus working together on... providing aid or something. Maybe not waging war

[โ€“] Mothra@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Well they seem to have a reputation for winning battles after all
