True story. Just bought a bag of birdseed. The cashier chastised me by saying “you know you are keeping birds from flying south and are killing them”.

Besides replying back “will you be able to sleep tonight knowing you are an accomplice?” what would your response have been?

I’d have asked her to furnish her academic credentials in ornithology.

Otherwise STFU.

Pffft...beats me. I’ll ask my assistant that does my shopping what she’d have done in that situation.

Be careful he is probably well versed in bird law.

Stone faced:

"That was my plan all along...and it's only the beginning."

Turn, and walk out.

I'd just say the birds you are feeding did fly south for the winter.

Maybe the guy with the screen name, "NorthTiger"...might not be in the South.

Since I can never think of great comebacks in the moment, my response would have probably been "Well, maybe you need to fly south."

Later in the car: "My daughter wants to eat like a bird, so by God, she is going to eat like a bird"

She needs to think outside the box. You was going to set a new record by laying each seed end to end ALL the way to the south.

Unfortunately, this is an open and shut case of 3rd degree birdslaughter, it seems.
