Our wings are not tired.

Executives of my company asked the city to change the name of the street because apparently Morning Glory is a term for a morning erection.

Checks off today in the learn something new every day list.

I am confused by the xkcd as well

It would be setting up a pavlov-like response in the brds/sqirrels, right? everytime they hear loud bass, they think they will get bread crumbs. You make the bread-crumb getting are look similar to an open car window and BAM cars attacked.

Just ated a wee bit too much food for lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm finding it less hilarious, knowing my company is being turned into slang. I like my company.

That is too bad, but I can't imagine it will last.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

But how would the birds/squirrels getting in the car stop the music?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But how would the birds/squirrels getting in the car stop the music?

They wouldn't. It's pretty much about making the players of loud music suffer.

the jackholes who drive down your street blaring music with windows down would stop or take another route, I think is the idea.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But how would the birds/squirrels getting in the car stop the music?

If every time you drove down this one street blaring loud music with your windows open you got attacked by hungry animals, how often would you repeat that behaviour?

Me, as the architect, I stop caring if you don't learn from your mistakes, because annoying people getting attacked by ravening squirrels is really fucking funny--I just have to learn how to trigger a camera each time, so video can be posted to the internet.

I did not know "ravening" was a word.

It is a good word.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Right, it's win-win.
