Title: Nailed it.
Post by: rlrcstrnthusiast on April 16, 2013, 08:26:55 am
I have a feeling those ducks won't be coming to my pool any time soon.

So we have a pair of mallards, male and female, that have a habit of using our pool as their private oasis, and they don't scare easily. As such, we scare them out of my parent's pool by throwing tennis balls at them. I always miss -- except for this morning. Nailed the boy mallard in the head and flash-knocked it out. How do I know it was out? Ever seen a duck sink like a rock before?

I am no duck expert, but don't they float, naturally?  I mean, it seems like a sensible safeguard by mother nature to ensure that aquatic fowl as tasty as duck would float in case it is simply knocked out.  Also, in case of death, it could be fed upon by both fish and birds.  Hell, even swimmers.  Wouldn't hunting dogs have trouble picking up the scent if ducks sank.

Sir, your duck did not get knocked out, it escaped.  More precisely, it ducked.

:lol:

Have you ever thought of "scaring" the ducks away with a shotgun blast of birdshot? It's surprisingly effective. And tasty. Effective and tasty.

From topic, I assumed you were talking about the married chicks.

It's what I was hoping for, actually.

No, married ducks.  Actually we have no proof of marriage.  They might have been living in sin.

Don't have a shotgun, and I'm not really keen on the idea of shooting in my pool. Besides, takes more skill to nail one in the head.

so.... how long you think it'll be before kenny changes to a duck avatar and related name to make a huge rant thread about our obviously antiquated anti-duck attitudes

3 weeks. Dude's been getting a lot slower lately.



I think it might be time to put him down and get a new Kenny.

Make sure to take him out back behind the shed and use silver bullets, just to be safe. Also decapitate him after you put him down. Oh yeah, drive a steak through his heart and put a rock in his mouth as well. Can never be too safe nowadays

Oh yeah, and as for the ducks? Walk out of the house in an asian mask. Just about any kind of living animal is scared of asians. They can sense the fact that they can turn just about anything into edible food.

Behind the shed? But that was our sacred sex space and I don't want to ruin it with his blood.

Eh, leo, your sex spot could do with a little kenny guts hanging from the lights. Gives it that natural 'at home feel' as the light glimmers off of his guts.

Projectiles like bullets and shot lose velocity very quickly in water. :o

So what weapon do you suggest?  I would personally go with a bat.  There's something primal about it.

I'd replace the water with something flammable, and then toss a match in. Free dinner AND rescue fire. Ya know, just incase your lost and don't know it.

Number one, I'm a terrible shot. Number two, it was by an edge of the pool. They weren't scared by people, so going to that side would make no difference. They haven't been back since the incident (that we know of).

They're birds.  They probably wait in a tree or on a nearby roof to watch you go to work, then fly down to piss and fornicate in your pool to get you back.  Ducks are vengeful creatures.

Telling ya, fill it with something flammable and them flick a match!

I use to work with someone who had this same problem one time. It was some elderly lady who use to have a pool in her back yard. One day ducks showed up and she was happy about it. She made the mistake of feeding them ONCE, and they never stopped coming back. After about a week of them crapping and fucking in her pool, she got sick of it and tried to scare them off.

At first they were afraid of her, but that only lasted for about 2 weeks. Next she started to throw stuff at them like you, but they would always come back. So one day she bought a vicious pitox that was oddly enough trained both as an attack dog AND a hunting dog. She would let the dog out whenever she saw the ducks, but he could never catch them. One day she came home from work and found her bedroom window broke and the dogs head in her bed.

She was scared shitless and pissed off at the same time. She loved that dog more then moth loves fire and centipedes, which is why she was angry. But she was scared because she lived in a bad neighborhood and had CAST IRON BARS OVER HER WINDOWS! The ducks broke through the bars and window, just to put her poor dogs head in her bed.

Well, she took that as a last straw and kind of mentally broke. She soon quit work so I only got to talk to her outside of work after this. But apparently she bought a flamethrower and tried to torch the suckers. She got the female one one day, but the male got away. Next week she vanished. No trace of her, just a bed full of duck feathers.

True story.

Burn them now, dont mess around with them. You mess with them, your as good as dead.

Scary shit.  Not only vengeful, but determined & resourceful.  I guess the moral is that it isn't worth a buck to fuck with a duck.

No, its not worth a buck to fuck with a duck...

but its worth a bill for the kill!

...dunno where to really go with that, but it felt like the right thing to say.

Post by: Buck Turgidson on April 30, 2013, 04:32:55 am
It may have felt right, but now you have offended me, sir. 

The fact that you don't know where to go with it just rubs salt into the wound.
