"You should see the gaggle of teenage geese in my office pond."
"I saw some teenage swans at Central."
"I hate swans."
"You don't hate swans..."
"I do. I would totally punch baby swans if I could, that's how much I hate them."
Jim, is that about how it went?

Swan HATER!!! Kidding...there are two living in the pond by my house...you can come over and punch them if you want.
Oh and if it matters at all, I want to punch EVERYTHING today. So much for YOUR hate, huh?? (smiling)
I agree with the swan hater! I don't like them - or peacocks, really anything that has a long slender neck and a pointy beak - every since I've been bit by one as a kid. It's rough going to the Detroit Zoo on some days.~Jen
That would be a little like an adorable baby kitten, just opening her eyes, and trying to punch a baby swan. So cute, that you couldn't possibly inflict any damage. You would end up stumbling over your feet and end up gazing heavenward and saying: "mew" with your cute little voice.
Thats how cute you are, baby swan hater!
LOL Peacocks are Jen's faaaaaaaaaaavorite animal. Hehe.. ~B
Dear anonymous, No. I am tough. I would totally take out a whole coven of swans. I know that's not the scientifically correct term, but swans are bitchy witches. Mew, indeed.
Jenny, a peacock bit you?! Wow. Too bad your parents aren't the suing type - you could own part of the zoo, I bet.
Emily, I'm coming over. I'm pretty sure swans are protected, and this may be a federal offense, so I won't park in your driveway and incriminate you.
Wow.... and all we were doing was having a nice family outing to get mom out of the house with four little kids !!! We had a picnic in the park that happened to have a body of water ...that happened to have some swans swimming in it. Like all good parents you take the kids to the waters end to see nature at its best. Little did we know that it was a momma swan protecting her unseen babies. Talk about a lifelong scarring. And such hatred still exuding...:) !!! I am a failure as a parent...
I bet YOUR wingspan would be wider than hers and your hissing would be deafening and your running would be at break neck olympic speed if someone was threatening a certain little strawberry brown haired, hazel gray eyed, little sweetheart :):):)
Mom, you would only be a failure if the swan was coming after you and you threw your eldest in it's path to protect yourself.
Wait, you didn't, did you?
At least I like vegetables - success there, right?
No I was bit by a Swan as a kid. It kindof sounds like your story. It was on a camping trip, but I didn't feed it quick enough, so it bit my toes which were exposed in cute kid saddles. jen
