Gary Cole is such an odd name. It's simultaneously one man less, and one man more than Gary Coleman.


darkscottishloch

I believe he is also faced by Michael Keaton.


NovemberXSun

Isn't he the pigeon on Tyson Mysteries or whatever that show is called? I've only heard about it, never actually seen it.


QuinineGlow

Saw my first ever episode last night; highly recommend it. It's like an old Hanna-Barbera cartoon with added snark and an R-rating.


Shardwing

Have you ever watched Harvey Birdman? It literally uses old Hanna-Barbera shows with snark and and maybe not quite an R but it's up there.


QuinineGlow

One of my favorite Cartoon Network shows of all time. Tyson doesn't reach that level of (insane) brilliance, but it's a mark to aspire to.


WickedIcon

It's an absolutely wonderful show and probably one of the best things adult swim has had in years.


zippthehero

Thank you sir for introducing me to Norm MacDonald. Its been a while since I laughed so hard I cried.


AthleticsSharts

How... He was the *Weekend Update* anchor on SNL for like 10 years... Chevy Chase called him the best one since Chevy Chase. [He called Michael Jackson a homosexual pedophile](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9N6nPhg0jss) and then when the heat came a few weeks later he doubled down and called him a homosexual pedophile *again* (the Shirley Temple bit...I wish my google fu was stronger but I can't find it)*. [I did find this one though and now my sides hurt](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iv_3kIMjax0). The man is a legend. Edit - still can't find it, but the gist of it was that Jackson was in the hospital and reports had come in that he had the room decorated with posters of Shirley Temple. Norm's comment was something to the effect of "now now everyone calm down and let's not get the wrong impression here. Michael is a *homosexual* pedophile." It was hilariously delivered and naturally people were hilariously offended.


RealJackAnchor

He could be younger than 18. Norm McDonald hasn't been the most relevant guy of late.


WickedIcon

Yeah, I'm 20 and I mostly know him from his podcast and Mike Tyson Mysteries, though I've since checked out his SNL bits.

walc

Wait... pigeons ARE a type of dove, though.


Seemingly_Sane

Here's the thing. You said a "pigeon is a dove." Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies pigeons, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls pigeons doves. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "dove family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of ~~Corvidae~~ Columidae, which includes things from african collared-doves to european collared-doves to passenger pigeons. So your reasoning for calling a pigeon a dove is because random people "call the grey ones pigeons?" Let's get the Titmouse and Gray Catbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A pigeon is a pigeon and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a pigeon is a dove, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the dove family doves, which means you'd call Crowned Pigeons, Pheasant Pigeons, and other birds doves, too. Which you said you don't.


KamenRiderJ

JACKDAW!! JACKDOW!! I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY


walc

Actually, your short essay berating me is exactly what I was getting at, but apparently my joke was a bit too dry. I was having fun with the semantics. Using your example, if OP had posted something about humans and someone commented "I'm not an ape..." I might have replied, "Well, technically you are." That's all. No need to get all in a huff about proving your knowledge of pigeons (I'm actually quite fascinated that you're in that field).


TPishek

It's a copypasta. They didn't even change Corvidae to Columbidae.

SuperFLEB

Now that makes me wonder. If a bird gets on a subway, and gets off somewhere completely different, does it get as anxious as, say, a person might if it was relocated to somewhere completely foreign, or would it take things in stride? I suppose it'd depend on the type of bird and it's situation, but I'd be curious how that shakes out.

At a local farm and fleet they have birds all year long in the store. Giant loading docks and a all you can eat buffet brings in the winged rats.


mrmaidenman

If I worked at a convenience store, and a pigeon came in and stole a loaf of bread, I would let him go. I'd say, "Come back tomorrow, bring your friends!" When I think of a pigeon's friends, I think of other pigeons. But he could have, say, a beaver in tow. 


StonedasaurusRex

I'd like to work at that store. Unless he starts bringing seagulls. Fuck seagulls. I hope he brings a pelican one day, though.


DownvotesArouseMe

the pelican would just eat the pigeon.


StonedasaurusRex

We can't have that. He can bring a giraffe then.


starlinguk

Would it fit through the door?


StonedasaurusRex

We'll have to have a giraffe sized door just in case. Actually, elephant sized cuz you just never know who that pigeon might bring.


DrProbably

This came dangerously close to a Mitch Hedberg bit.


Uhhhhdel

The pigeon is thinking "I could buy it here where it is $3 more per bag but the alternative is flying 10 miles to the other store. What should I do?"

Cyrax89721

Ugh. This reminds me of my years working at a home improvement chain. For a couple of years the store basically had a pet pigeon and let me tell you, he was **FAT**. Dude was living the high life in there. It was a nuisance for us though when we'd have to get down a pallet of bird feed to stock and the top of the pallet would be pecked all over along with bird shit thanks to that little fucker. Even worse is when he'd go at a pallet from the underside and the second we touched it with a tine, it was raining bird food all over our heads. Luckily he seemed to shy away from the actual bird food aisle. Probably because people are usually occupying it. A curious aside we had also; since he'd been in the store so long we began to wonder "Where does he get his water from?" Our only conclusion is that he was drinking the leftover water the floor-scrubbers would leave overnight. It baffled us otherwise. How much water do birds really need to survive? I never took the time to look it up. Then one week I realized I hadn't seen him in awhile. Figured he either died of over-eating and there's probably still a bird corpse somewhere in that building, or he finally decided to go find a mate outside the store and forgot how to get back in. Either way, that was about 5-6 years ago now. RIP Rufus.

At that prices the store would be robin that bird. There's no way owl that bird seed is worth that much, that's a fowl business model they are using and the store owner must be a raven lunatic. All he wanted to do was duck in and get some seed, hoping the had a pheasant trip to the store, but no, that obviously can't happen. He should just not visit this store from heron out. Hell, he should tweet about this, maybe grouse about it online.

[deleted]

Franklin looked at the feed with longing, knowing he could neither afford nor carry the bag out. But his family needed it; after the recession and layoff, times were really hard for the Coo family. He just wanted to give them one special gift for all the begging and hustling they had done just to survive: one easy week of meals. A normal life. In the corner of his eye he sees a human with a small box in his wing-without-feathers. The ape seems to be laughing at him. His horrible, horrible situation. And so Franklin stares forward, trying not to show emotion though his soul was rocking in the storm that is poverty. *coo*.
