What are you guilty of?
-
The kicking cats thread got me thinking. . . What am I guilty of? I can think of one case that causes me guilt in this vein. A mockingbird kept showing up at our place at dawn singing and singing. Now I'm not a morning person so after being woken up for a few days in a row and being forced to get up, I decided to do something about it. I walked outside and started throwing rocks.. all under the assumption that I wouldn't be able to hit the thing anyway. So what does this guy do... flies up to another branch, while still singing and continues to sing and... mock me. Well, I chased it out of that tree and then to another tree... and this time took a good aim.. and wammo! Didn't hit the mockingbird. I hit a sleeping crow. Watched it fall to the ground with a thud. Felt bad for a good week. Although the mockingbird did wait a couple of weeks before returning. But he came back, and I just had to adjust my schedule til he lost interest. So what are you guilty of?

Put out a bird feeder for finches next year or a winter mix for cardinals. Their songs aren't annoying and you can find redemption. :badger:
My wife and I were talking about doing that. Of course I hadn't thought of the redemption part, we just have a lot of birds around. Although now I doubt I'd wake up to em' our brick house keeps out a lot of noise, not the garbage trucks, but a lot of noise.

I laughed and spit all over my monitor when I read this. Not because I am into harming animals probably the opposite without being an ARA (animal rights activist). It was sad but hilarious. I would have fallen over on the ground if that had happened to me. What are the odds? OMG, that was a good laugh. Reminds me of teaching my 6 year old to skip rocks. I wasn't paying attention and one wild throw later I got hit pretty solidly in the stomach with a rock that never had a chance of being a "skipper". His aim is getting better but I'm standing back farther. Being behind him still isn't a guarantee...

I was 8 when I was standing behind home plate playing baseball in the street when the batter on his back swing whacked me on the forehead. Fatty lump.

I'm guilty of not beating the shit out of people who clearly deserve it.
