You know nothing, Child. We, Brits are forced to be on CONSTANT VIGILLIANCE against the seagulls. Many sandwiches have been nicked. Many pasties never got to fufill their purpose and the seagulls can be aggressive. There has been reports of pets being attacked by the little pieces of vermin and yet, they are "Endangered." Endangered my backside. Worse, tourists think it's good to feed them. It's not. Never feed the seagulls as it can attract 30+ at once.

Many sandwiches have been nicked.

No! They hold the advantage!

lol :p

When I was in Québec, a seagull stole something straight out of my hand! That has never happened to me before. It was very unexpected.

I don't like seagulls much.

Was it a foodstuff that it stole? Or was it a full-on thief gull that will just steal anything for the thrill of it?

Seagulls can be extremely brazen, especially in areas where humans are common and they have become wise to a lack of threat.

I haven't had any issues with seagulls. They're chill. I did have a monkey steal a packet of chips from me when I was sitting in a jeep.

[Aarah]

Monkeys: the seagulls of Dubai.

Stealing your chips? Cheeky monkey!

[Cassandra]

@Aarah: It stole my lip balm. Like, why, seagull? Why?

[Aarah]

^Ha ha! I'm sorry you lost your lipbalm, but it's a pretty funny story, at least.
Somewhere in Quebec, there's a seagull with a lovely moisturised beak.

Oh it wasn't in Dubai. It was in India, decades ago

Lip balm? Hey now, seagulls don't have Sephora y'know. I'd be stealing lip balms too if I were them.

[BetaB17]

This is why I prefer owls

[Aarah]

Have you been dabbling in magic to keep you forever young?

[Cassandra]

That's exactly what I was gonna say...

[Lord Timster]

Could have been a past life... o_O

[Aarah]

That would be a fun session of past life regression:

"Where are you now?"
India.
"And what are you doing there?"
I'm in a Jeep.
"Interesting. What else?"
A monkey just stole my chips!!!

Nailed it! Exaggerating aside, it was in 2006. So I wasn't too off.

[Aarah]

Aww, it's even worse that you were only little.

I hope young you found it funny and not upsetting.

[dremorababe]

Of course haha. It was hilarious. That's why I still remember it lol. Besides I love animals

[The SheoDovah]

It's never funny. Losing a bacon sarnie to the feathered [&@%!] is always a tragedy. It is one of the worst things that can occur to a man of the south east of England. *sniffles* Bacon sarnies, you will be avenged. One day. Maybe. Never. Also, anyone that feeds them should be fined heavily. Not kidding, feeding them has resulted in the little gits relying on humans for food and will attack. I've lost so many things to them and legally, there is nothing one can do. Because "They are endangered." And the noise, they are one of the noisest birds in England. They can be aggressive too if you happen to walk past one of their nests.

[dremorababe]

I'd be aggressive too if someone walked past my nest.

I've been binge watching Lost and noticed a couple fun things. At one point there's a guy with a 'heart rate monitor' strapped to his arm that will trigger an explosion if someone kills him. Thing is the heart rate monitor is obviously a slightly modified guitar tuner. The other little easter egg type thing is when they go to diffuse the bomb. One of the guys goes down the list of things that can't be disconnected w/o triggering the bomb, one of them being the battery. His solution is to freeze the battery with liquid nitrogen.... This is why I need to be on movie sets. If you tried that the battery would explode 1st, then the bomb second. I mean it'd happen so fast you wouldn't tell the difference but I'm just sayin.

That would be fun to talk with an actual ordinance disposal expert. I'm really good with electronics I bet I could diffuse a bomb, but not in the movie scenario where there's like 10 seconds and you have to cut the right wire.

[Wolfborn]

Countess von Aarah?!
Something is afoot here...

[BetaB17]

Your right! Where's my Count von Lechance?

[The SheoDovah]

The people's republic of demoarcy of UESP has banned all countesses aside from Von Aarah as part of UESP regulation #92092102910212143 subsection omega #2898121100282

[Unionhack]

I'm gonna go ahead and work against my better judgment by reminding you guys that you wanted to change my name to Maplehack

While you're at it, give a brotha some red username text, maybe some Canadian flag maple leaves instead of coins

[Aarah]

^But it's Halloween. Canadian flag maple leaves don't say spooky.

Maple leaf flag coins would look cool, though. And it is Autumn, I suppose, so it would fit with that.

I feel it's a bit early, but I really wanna get the pumpkin coins out for everyone!

Countess von Aarah?!

Vot are you talking about, dahling?

Oh and just on a completely separate note...

You DARE post Johann Sebastian Bach on a forum that I lurk?

Oh, Countess, verily hath you earned a tongue lashing the likes of which the world has never witnessed. The bards of the ages will speak of it, not in hushed tones but in frantic shouts, mostly in part that my deranged rambling damaged their ear drums.

I just seriously hate Bach for real tho. The dude made my life a living hell during my first two years of college and I'll elaborate on that later when I have more time to do so.
