There they sit
at the foot of the mountain
Taking hits
of the sacred smoke
Fire rips at their lungs
Holy mountain take us away

Where the gently caress did the "birb" thing come from? And why do people keep doing it? I've gotta be missing something, or I'm just becoming an "old." It looks like my 4 year old niece is spelling when I see it, but I know it's like a 30 year old dude in IT.

Sometimes words are altered to express something that is difficult to convey with text-only communication. In this case, the feeling of cuteness-overload is loaded into a purposeful misspelling of 'bird' to give the impression that the writer has regressed into a child-like state.

I'm with you, man, but I'll get my own malt, tyvm. No offense. I don't share malts with other men.

My daughter says "birb" IRL which is excusable because she's a teenager. Well, I don't mind it because I'm biased.
