This is probably one of the saddest but funniest pictures I've ever seen.
One child policy?

Aw, that was so sad! I wonder if it actually happened, or some guy just swept up the rest of them and dropped some food down the drain for the picture. I hope so.

methinks they were trying to make a statement, no? Clever way on how to do that. And as long as no duckies were harmed in the making of those pictures, may I take a moment to smirk at the government

I don't know if ducks can perceive the concept of "babies/falling/drain" etc., so I don't know if it would even look into a manhole thingy after that happened, but yeah. I was torn between cracking up when I saw it and going "awww, that is so sad!"

Salad Fingers is bizarre!! Burnt Face Man is a crackup though. He's so... demented.

Time now for a flashback.... I had the Kenya song stuck in my head, so I watched it. They're so cute! But my favourite part is the "Holy Crap! Lions!" Tour bus. Yeah.....good times. ;D

Ha! Ko, that picture is awesome. In Seminar right now we're reading Darwin and all about Natural Selection, so I printed that out and will bring it to class on Wednesday. ;D

Hehe, I wonder if a sewer grate counts as natural selection...?
Oh hey Fan, did you see the "Live" version of Kenya? ;D

Yeah I know, the sewer grate was sort of a longshot. But I guess being able to cross one would be an important skill to have and to pass on to future ducks if you live in the city. I brought that into class and passed it around, and there was a mix of people laughing and people saying, "That's terrible!" But then it got to one kid and he said, "Oh, yeah, I saw this before. I saw the movie online." Don't worry, though... they probably had a net underneath the grate to catch the ducks or something...

Ah!
When did this get moved in here??
Oh well, since it's here, I'll post this rather amussing poem I found. The End of the Raven, by Edgar Allen Poe's Cat On a night quite unenchanting, when the rain was downward slanting, I awakened to the ranting of the man I catch mice for. Tipsy and a bit unshaven, in a tone I found quite craven, Poe was talking to a Raven perched above the chamber door.
"Raven's very tasty," thought I, as I tiptoed o'er the floor, "There is nothing I like more" Soft upon the rug I treaded, calm and careful as I headed Towards his roost atop that dreaded bust of Pallas I deplore.
While the bard and birdie chattered, I made sure that nothing clattered, Creaked, or snapped, or fell, or shattered, as I crossed the corridor; For his house is crammed with trinkets, curios and wierd decor - Bric-a-brac and junk galore.
Still the Raven never fluttered, standing stock-still as he uttered, In a voice that shrieked and sputtered, his two cents' worth - "Nevermore."
While this dirge the birdbrain kept up, oh, so silently I crept up, Then I crouched and quickly lept up, pouncing on the feathered bore. Soon he was a heap of plumage, and a little blood and gore - Only this and not much more.
"Oooo!" my pickled poet cried out, "Pussycat, it's time I dried out! Never sat I in my hideout talking to a bird before; How I've wallowed in self-pity, while my gallant, valiant kitty Put and end to that damned ditty" - then I heard him start to snore. Back atop the door I clambered, eyed that statue I abhor, Jumped - and smashed it on the floor.

I find it quite a dark poem actually. Its good though got a good gothic atmosphere to it. ;D
I'm not sure when this thread got moved into the ravenclaw common room.
Haven't sheep learned how to roll over cattle grids?
That duck thing is so sad though especially since they made a film about it.
