The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsShe's A Cuckoo Bird, Right?
Right?
I mean it's the only explanation for why a Chinese woman is living in a cage with 300 other birds.
The woman was chosen out of 70 volunteers to cage herself in the middle of a park, suspended 12 feet above ground, for 7 days.
The cage is equipped with a bed and a computer with internet, and she is to
"increase her awareness of conservation by experiencing the pain of a caged bird".Ya, I don't know how many times I've looked at my 300 pet birds in their cage and thought, those poor birds, if only I had 299 birds instead. This is so cruel of me. If only I could learn what it means to be a caged bird with 300 others.
Seriously, how, praytell, does living with 300 birds bring one a greater awareness of being a caged bird? Is it typical for a bird owner to keep 300 birds in one cage?
I mean, other than me and my 300 birds that is.
Plus, it may just be me, but I don't think birds get the privilege of internet use while living in a cage.
Of course, we're not stupid, we all know this is merely a publicity stunt for some animal rights nutjob brigade, and the computer is just for communication on the "oh whoa is me" stories this woman (or is that womyn) will spew.
I don't know about you, but it's not everyday that I see 300 birds caged up. I'd rather see them frying up, wrapped in a little bread batter, and then eaten by me.

"this woman (or is that womyn) will spew."
Did you feel the empowerment while typing that Sam?

Nature has a way of taking care of idiots. And as far as respiratory diseases like Bird Flu go, China always comes in at number one.
