This is an idea I got after reading one of those math problems, where you're supposed to figure out the distribution of animals based on how many legs there are... Blugh, word problems.
Fortunately for Bobskunk, it's a fairly easy problem, but for some reason the teacher doesn't like that answer.
Hahaha! I love the two Bobheads making out in the back there. I expect the murring and purring is enough to register on the Richter scale.
Something is wrong with me. I just immediately wanted to figure out what the "right" answer was.
(it's 27 birds and 16 skunks by the way)
...I like your answer better.
The fun factor on this is a 9.5. Makes me laugh! At that moment, someone calls from the living room to me saying: "What are you laughing at? Sounds like there's three of you giggling in there!" NOW this is even more funny! :D
Haha, awesome. :D My fave Bobhead is the one just gazing wistfully/dreamily upward. :}
Also, about the person who commented that 'birds don't count as animals', if they ARE serious (could be a joke, as you suspected), it might be this weird thing I've run into with a few people where they mentally class only mammals as being 'animals', or something, and then thinking of birds and fish and bugs as other realms onto their own.
It's related to thinking of "meat" as just meat from mammals (which are the only true animals, in their head, I guess?), and thinking of eating meat from a fish as just 'eating fish' and not meat even though it's the flesh of an animal and therefore meat, right? But they class fish as their own thing so fish meat isn't real meat, to them. :P
Same thing with eating turkey or chicken and not thinking of that as MEAT, either. I discovered this when an older guy I worked with talked about wanting to eat meat but not being able to.. or rather advised against it by his doctor, and I think we talked about alternatives, like fish or poultry and I was like.. "well that's meat too" and he said they weren't and... I learned of this odd mental landscape for classification some people have.
