People are fucking birds.

You can interpret that sentence however you see fit.

Why would you insult birds like that? Birds are awesome and wonderful. Also, if you think birds don't have good memories and aren't intelligent look at corvids(such as crows) and parrots.

Would not recommend having a staring contest with any one of them, even if it started it. If one looks at you, for the love of all that is self-preservation, look away. They don't seem to like eye contact, and they hold grudges... for a very, very long time.
