I was biking today to work when I saw two birds tumble out of the air right past me. At first I thought I'd scared them (there are a pair of quail-like birds that act like pheasants--meaning that they scare me half to death each time) and then I realized that they were fighting. A robin and a pigeon--and the pigeon must have been eight, nine times bigger than the other bird. And yet the robin kept flying up to a tree, then diving down to strafe the pigeon. Repeatedly. And in the end, the pigeon gave up and flew to another tree, some ways away, while the robin taunted it. Strange: I expected it to be the other way around.


Not going to elaborate on my other thing--the casual use of the term "Nazi". I would like to say, right now, that anyone using it is one of the following: a) horrendously ignorant, b) flippant. Horrifically so. Let me tell you, that despite the intervening seventy and eighty years (or more; it depends on the dates you use), the term "Nazi" is still incredibly loaded. It carries heavy, heavy negative connotations, and it calls up inexpressibly twisted actions. Do not use the word "Feminazi".
