lol.
I know of a few cities in the US that have brought in falcons to control the pigeon population. In the city where I work, there's a very large hawk population, and it's not unusual to see them swoop down and grap a pigeon every now and then.

Then how are they going to control the Hawks? Pterodactyls. It's going to escalate.

The hawks don't need to be controlled. Once they can no longer find food here, they just move on to another feeding ground. It's not like they'll start attacking people because they're out of pigeons.

You'll be eating those words come Hawkageddon.

Well...they might. You build up the numbers of Hawks in an urban area and pretty soon you have flocks of hungry killers with no fear of man. Working together they could easily take down a child.

I suppose this is true in theory, but the hawks aren't being brought here, they just come on their own. I also don't think hawks work together as you suggest they might.
Hawkageddon. lol.

oh toplol at the posts indeed. this is almost BM-worthy.

Not in their natural environment, no of course not. But they have been driven to an unnaturally high population density in an artificial environment. Should the pigeon population crash there is no telling what they might do.

We have loads of hawks in this area as well. Coming home from Philly one day, there was one sitting on a lamp post. Luckily the exit I was taking was empty, as I couldn't keep my eyes off of it. They are too cool.
We also have turkey vultures, which are terribly ugly and huge. There was one a couple of months ago around the corner from me eating some sort of road kill. Here's a photo:
edit to say: I didn't take this photo! I wish I had my camera on me for the bird I saw looked bigger than what's in this person's picture.

In other pigeon news... below is a picture taken by my girlfriend of a pigeon that had the misfortune of flying into her office last week. In its haste, it failed to notice that there was actually glass located within the window frame that it chose for its plucky, apparently over-zealous escape, resulting in a rather sinister scene.
Pigeon: FAILED. Posted by Kanye West (Member # 837) on :

It's not been set up, if that's what you mean. I downloaded it straight from her mobile. Someone's suggested sending it to Nuts for £200 or something...

last night I was at the National Theatre having a drink because the bar at the NFT was full of *****, and I thought that the sign above the bar said "Cakes and Onions", but that was just because I was sitting at the wrong angle. I'm trying to remember what it actually said. Maybe "coffee".
Posted by Kanye West (Member # 837) on :
they also had one of those Dyson hand dryers in the bogs. Those things are quite effective, I thought to myself, after drying my hands.

I wouldn't discount that possiblilty. In fact, it could well have done. I just don't know for sure. On the other hand, it could have said something else. Again, I'm not certain.

Quick Question: If you were a generously endowed, good looking woman and you decided to take up jogging, would you wear a support bra, or, at the very least, a bra? Thing is, there's a woman who fits this description who jogs up the very busy road that I take to work (not literally, of course) every morning. Today, she was wearing a skin-tight, white shirt and her large nipples were like bullets, her breasts bouncing magnificently. Is she just doing this for the attention or is there a genuine reason for this shameless, yet at the same time delightful plan of action?
Posted by Kanye West (Member # 837) on :
she probably hoping that you're going to follow her home, wait outside her flat, and then break in once she's gone to sleep and kneed them.
Posted by Zygote (Member # 883) on :
lol
Posted by Zygote (Member # 883) on :
Although I doubt that she does want me to do that. She might just be allergic to bras, or something. Or her breasts might be too tender to cope with the restraining qualities of bras. I just don't know. I really don't. It certainly helps me get out of bed quicker in the morning, though.
Posted by H1ppychick (Member # 529) on :
You might want to draw this website (here) to her attention...
Could you let us know the exact amount of bounceage you've witnessed by reference to the bounceometer settings? I feel we should be told, for illustration purposes only of course.
Posted by froopyscot (Member # 178) on :
If she's on a regular morning schedule, surely you can provide direct video evidence?

When selecting the 'FF & G' and 'Extreme' options, the movement is fairly similar, barring the fact that the boobs used for the bounce-o-meter look fake. This woman's are natural and offer more leniency in the bouncing stakes.
Unfortunately I didn't see her this morning, much to my disdain. I must have just missed her as I was running a little late today. I will endeavour to obtain footage tomorrow morning, should the opportunity arise.
Posted by dang65 (Member # 102) on :
I've never been out with a girl with enormous tits, and it's one of the great regrets of my life... so far. I'd just like to know what it's like, out of curiosity. I guess I need to get on some kind of exchange scheme for girls who are curious what it's like to go out with someone with a hairy chest, but even I find that replusive when I look in the mirror, so she'd have to be quite sick to be curious about that really.
I think there might be a website opportunity here. [*lighbulb*] What feature would you be curious about and like to give it a try just once if there was a website which offered this service? And what category would you fit into yourself?

An excellent idea!
Ever dreamt of fucking a skeleton, ladies? Posted by New Way Of Decay (Member # 106) on :
Hobbit Sex.
Posted by mart (Member # 32) on :
But it's essentially just a dating agency, isn't it?
Dang's byline would be:
Hairy chest seeks big tits
And that's it. Except I suppose Dang's idea is that you'd just get together once, to try it, and then go your separate ways. Which also happens with dating agencies as well, of course.
Or he could just go to a prostitute. With big tits.
Posted by mart (Member # 32) on :
Who likes hairy chests.

I'm not sure that it matters too much what the prostitute thinks of hairy chests. Unless she'll knock a tenner off the price because of this fact.
Posted by mart (Member # 32) on :
Well, I think it would matter to Dang. He wants to try "going out with" a woman with big tits, who likes his hairy chest. Just shagging a prostitute with big tits would only fulfill one half of his requirement, if that.
Posted by New Way Of Decay (Member # 106) on :
Maybe he could ask her. Before the sex though or it would just make him sound like he's showing off.
Posted by mart (Member # 32) on :
Ask her what?

Do you like my hairy chest? No? Well that's too bad because I'm paying to have sex with you. Posted by H1ppychick (Member # 529) on :

No, no. I'm thinking more like Multi-Coloured Swap Shop here. And why should it just be physical features? Maybe you've always wandered what it would like to go out with a Professor of Butterflies, or one of those men that guides aeroplanes in using table tennis bats.
It would match people up purely on a curiosity basis, so you wouldn't stipulate that they must have a GSOH or enjoy country walks, but rather that they must have freckles, or lots of piercings, or be a train spotter. You could agree that you go out for a meal together and can frankly discuss the features that you're curious about.
I bet a lot of people would get on really well in this situation, because it would be built around an immediate common interest, and a bit of humour probably.
I mean, you could search for people that were looking for a feature you have, and then see if their feature was sufficiently curious to be worth an evening out with them.
I think this is probably my best idea yet, and that's saying something.
Posted by MiscellaneousFiles (Member # 60) on :
It's genius. In fact all you need to do is think up a catchy name, stick a social networking style interface on top of this idea and charge people a few quid to put up an ad, and you're onto a winner.
I'll design the logo and website front-end for a 10% cut.

Dang, my ears pricked up last night listening to Radio 4. They ran a piece about "living libraries", where you borrow a particular person with a particular trait, for a 30-minute chat.
How does it feel to know that yet another great idea of yours has in fact already been dreamt up by someone else, quite a while ago? Pretty disappointing, I imagine.

Oh, it's a familiar feeling.
It's much worse when you have the idea and then someone else does it years later and makes a mint. The Scandanavians thought of this one first, so I can hardly complain. (It's a pretty obvious idea though, innit.)

This is a common experience these days, no?
1. Have a good idea. 2. Check Google to see if anyone's thought of it first. 3. Abandon idea after google returns 48204 results.
Happened to me already this week in fact. At what point will all ideas have already been thought of?

*Bank robber hires decoys on Craigslist, fools cops.
quote: Around 11:00 a.m. PDT on Tuesday, the robber, wearing a yellow vest, safety goggles, a blue shirt, and a respirator mask went over to a guard who was overseeing the unloading of cash to the bank from the truck. He sprayed the guard with pepper spray, grabbed his bag of money, and fled the scene.
But here's the hilarious twist. The robber had previously put out a Craigslist ad for road maintenance workers, promising wages of $28.50 per hour. Recruits were asked to wait near the Bank of America right around the time of the robbery--wearing yellow vests, safety goggles, a respirator mask, and preferably a blue shirt. At least a dozen of them showed up after responding to the Craigslist ad.
quote: He then escaped in a creek headed for the Skykomish River on an inner tube, and the cops are still looking for him.
