They're finally needing to get off their fat, lazy arses and find their own food with lockdown in place rather than bullying us humans and mugging our steak bakes. I say I feel sorry for Gulls, get it fucking up them. One shat right in my pie just as I had it raised to my mouth whilst I was at school back in the day. My mates then turned the story into me eating a shitey pie. b*****ds. ^^^ Ate a shitey pie, imho 3 hours ago, The Moonster said: My girlfriend salutes magpies if she sees them. Always annoyed me that, and for that fact, magpies can f**k off. One of my step daughters does this.

coprolite Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I assume all of these magpie mentalists live in Scotland where they are relatively rare? You'd never get anything done in these parts if you had to acknowledge the belligerent wee b*****ds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and always done while waving the bad luck away. Always a 'good morning' whatever the time and don't think her driving and seeing one stops her waving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be hilariously ironic if she waved at the magpie for good luck whilst driving, lost control of the car and ended up a quadriplegic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 “Morning Mr Magpie, how are you and how’s the wife?”Usually just think it though, the arrogant black and white c***s never reply anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Only an utter lunatic would speak to magpies ffs. However, only a lunatic would treat them with anything other than wariness. They're hard, hard b*****ds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another annoying thing my girlfriend says when I point out how fucking mental it is to be superstitious by saluting magpies - "I'm not superstitious I'm just a littlestitious". Why am I still with her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I'm looking forward to walking to a game not been thrown out of to Tynecastle for ages. I hope you enjoy it and the coming season will be your last chance to do so for a very long time. Most likely we’ll enjoy the seaside novelty and stay for a few seasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
