You can't legally buy another person, Yoda. Tisk.

Just buy one of these:


Hand on heart I've not been harassed by a single bird ever since I bought one
Yeah it's genuinely weird to be so on edge walking in front of your own house. I'm literally just going to avoid the front steps for a solid week, I think, though I'll have to keep an eye on the situation.

Maybe, if I'm lucky, he was being really really aggressive because the process is almost done. I dunno.
lol.
Sorry about the bird. Years ago I had some bird that had apparently been wronged and terribly insulted by my back door glass pane. Each morning the creature picked fights, pecking at and slamming itself into the glass for two weeks. It was so loud I would wake from it on the other end of the house. It never bombed me directly, so your case sounds a bit worse.
Man, I wish this were just about you weirdos. It's totally an actual bird. I really hope this doesn't go on for more than, like, a week.
Woah. That next post is pretty dark lol. Creepy stalker bird =\

So, is that like some kind of metaphor on the Shoutbox participants? Are you saying that too many people hang out here, sniping (mocking, if you will) the more serious posts therefore you (and likely, other posters) are having to spend more time in more specific sub-forums to keep away?

HMMMMM?
Apparently this is a thing with mockingbirds. They're crazy aggressive, and smart enough to remember specific threats. As I was hearing this, I was sitting in my bedroom, and I looked out the window, and the bird was sitting on a power line looking into the bedroom at eye level.

So this bird hates me, and knows who I am, and is hanging out in front of my house 24 hours a day.
