#3 Two Kinds of Pigeons
July 7, 2016
Transcript
These are “pigeons”. There are two known types: the stupid kind and the fire-burping kind.
Notes: Head → Bops back and forth. Accumulated brain damage? Neck → Can only turn about 90 degrees Stomach → Can withstand lava? HOW?
Narration: Fire-burping pigeons live around the nearby active volcano. We think they are driven insane by lack of statues to sit on. This causes them to go about whacking the ground with their beaks all day long.
Fire-burping pigeons live around the nearby active volcano. We think they are driven insane by lack of statues to sit on. This causes them to go about whacking the ground with their beaks all day long.
They also suffer from chronic belching due to not realizing that they probably shouldn’t be eating the lava they find. Maybe these pigeons are stupid as well.
Gheralf says:
The fire-burping pigeons are theoretically not aggressive. However, they tend to panic easily and go into a hazardous frenzy. Not to mention that they like being in a flock, and when one starts panicking, so do the others... This should come as no surprise, considering all the fire that's flying around.
There are tales of adventurers who had to eat their boots while hiding in a cave for days before the pigeons calmed down.
Vayandil says:
In the middle picture you can see a brand new statue that was just recently revealed to the public. Of course, the pigeons took it over as soon as the concealing blanket was pulled off. For some reason they have zero interest on covered statues and it is always an event when a flock of stupid birds simultaneously realize a new perching potential. Someone might think maybe the pigeons are attracted by the straws sticking out of the statue, but the same happens regardless of the material. It just needs to be a statue.
We will talk about our sophisticated arts and crafts later in our comics, so I will not tell any more details here. Only that it takes tremendous skill to sculpt a statue seen in this comic and also make it stay intact.
