Do birdwatchers in America dont see its their political system that is the problem?

[Vera]

I mean, communism is bad, and manipulation culture, the religious right and, above all, manginas.

Am I right or am I left?

Also, do sport fans in America dont see its silly to call it World Cup if its only Americans who play it.

[Minimalist]

I see what you did there!

What is the world cup? Isn't that the hockey thing? Or wait, is that a soccer thing? 

You're not a word-salad kind of person, so I can see that your post is beyond my intellectual level. 

[PopeyesPappy]

I'm confused. Isn't the World Cup played in a different country every year with a host selection process similar to the Olympics?

See, the manipulation's gotten so bad, I typed Cup instead of Series (might also still be celebrating the English not winning the World Cup (football).

'tis gonna be between 36C-40C for the next 10 days here. My whole brain's a salad. A spoilt one at that

Nope, I saw what you saw. @Vera, 36C-40C looks like a range of bra sizes.

Hey, the World Series includes Canada, if they ever put up a baseball team.

I thought you were making a different joke, about football/football. 

...It still made more sense than Mr. Troll's trying-to-be-wild posts.

The original "idea" was about about another group as random as atheists having the same opinion about American politics.

From then on the blathering just took over

And yes, there's only one football. The other one is American football. Or Gaelic football. Or Australian football

[no one]

America is the world. Or at least legally it is.

On Earth's birth certificate it reads:

Soccer needs to be played on a much smaller field, like almost half the size it is now. The players look like little ants trying to get a sugar granule away from each other.  Just my unprofessional and totally stupid opinion.

[GenesisNemesis]

I always want to set up a bird feeder in the backyard but I don't want a cat to potentially kill the birds.

Ours are great hunters...

... of bugs



(and bats... though I think maybe the bats die from something else and they just play with the remains...

... yep, Covid21 will start from my backyard. Vervid21? )

I spotted a feral flock of what I think we're Hans macaws!!  Maybe they were Amazons of some variety, but they were definitely not local.

I spread birdseed on the front sidewalk every morning.  That way the many birds (and several squirrels) attracted have plenty of room.  They are mainly ground feeders anyway (starlings, sparrows, mourning doves), which means they are no more likely to be attacked by cats than usual.  In fact there are so many, and they are so skittish, that I doubt a cat could sneak up on them anyway.  

Safety in numbers, I guess.

The first time I saw Aussie Football those officials had cowboy hats on, and made a much more descriptive cowboy 6 shooters motion. It was hilarious to me.

Then there's me, who wants to set up bird feeders because all those little birds will attract hawks.

We don't have a birdfeeder but the birds around love all the fruits in the garden; the blackbirds especially go absolutely bonkers for the pears... that's how I know they're ripe - I wake up to an awful ruckus outside my window and there they are in the pear tree, arguing and shouting like a bunch of fishwives ;-)

They seem to prefer the sour cherry/cherry hybrid to the cherries but because we don't really pick them all, a lot remain on the tree and dry up and in the winter the bluetits and the sparrows have cherry raisins to nibble on

Oh yeah, that's my favourite part (and the only reason I actually remember - and recognise - it as a sport)

I got bit? pecked? ASSAULTED! by a friggin' macaw and lemme tell you, it was a vicious wound. Still have the scar, too

[Dom]

They say that a macaw has the bite strength of 500 to 700 pounds per square inch. Yep, that would hurt.
