The American dream: getting so drunk you fall off your own yacht

Don't forget, destroy the american school system, have a brother who's mercenaries are currently occupying US cities, and also be the daughter of billionaires and get everything in life for day one. That is, apparently, the american dream.

No thats just what you have to do to attain the American dream.

The dream itself is drunkenly risking boat based death

You know you've made it when vehicular manslaughter charges just fade away in the rearview. Just like that idiot that totally pulled out in front of me, no I wasn't drunk I was just tired, that's why I didn't call the police until two days later, I'll have you patrolling backwoods roads in Alaska, don't you know who I am?!

It's funny, when you type it out like that, it almost sounds like a coup to destabilize America. But that's just CRAZY!

i saw this show that was like Boat Cops about cops who patrol a recreational lake and pull over boaters. in the state where this was filmed boats basically have the same rules as cars and especially you are not allowed to drive a boat while drinking. you can get a DUI for it. the boat cops would see someone going too fast in a slow area or whatever and go after them with their little cop boat and pull the dangerous boater over, and as they would come alongside this person would be drinking openly like holding a beer and swigging it while making eye contact with the cops, and the cops would say "have you been drinking today sir?" and the guy would be like "yeah, why?" and this happened like four times in one episode

Lake Lewisville in Texas is also know as lake death locally because people won't stop getting drunk and dying.

There is a bar with a boat slip on the lake so you can stop and reload

I've always wondered why ducks eat like that. No matter how much food is put in front of them, they eat like they're fighting over the last scrap.

Feed a duck seed from your hand, and it feels like a horrible massage gone wrong.

my guess is that birds in general don't enjoy being on the ground if they can't focus 100% on not getting pounced on by predators, so they probably eat as fast as they can to minimize risks?


a friend of mine has a pet owl, she lets her free to fly and to roam at night and it's always amazing when I read/see evidence of bonding between birds and humans

like the story of the disney boyfriend with a pet eagle in the relationship thread, or people who manage to become friends with parrots, ravens and other bright birds

they're basically tiny specialized dinosaurs
