This blog has had a distinctly scatological vibe
as of late. Not to pile on, as it were, but this morning the titular birds evidently enjoyed what is colloquially known as a "deuce party" while hovering over our long-term Jetta's rear end (appropriately enough). Guess that's what I get for living down on the marina. Parking dockside has its drawbacks.
Be that as it may, I was frankly beside myself with rage when I awoke to find the venerable Vee-Dub in such a sorry state. "I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furrrrrrious anger," I bellowed at no seagull in particular, "those who attempt to poison and de-stroy our Jetta's metallic gray finish!"

"English, Mother F***er, do you speak it?!" = Samuel L. Jackson quote I use daily(usually with the expletive deleted).

That makes me very sad. You guys should get it off ASAP.

"Seagull, I thought you said you were gonna be cool. Now when you poop on me, it makes me nervous. And when I get nervous, I get scared. And when V-Dub drivers get scared, that's when seagulls accidentally get shot!"

estreka - I'm generally not a fan of the initialism "lol," but, lol. Love it.
Tell that seagull to be cool! Say "Seagull, be cool!"

I'm sure the car was nice and clean before you parked it there. Birds never seem to crap on dirty cars - only ones that have just been washed.

At a local walmart, theres this one space we know as "The Walmart Tree". 5seconds is all it takes for the entire car to be covered! MILLIONS of birds live in that tree. Its an old oak and it looms over most of the Parking spaces near the Crap spot, But only that one spot gets Crapped on...
Since my antenna is now retractible again, I may park there and post a pic... THEN DRIVE THROUGH CARWASH!! I've never done it in my car!!
