Not nearly enough blue imo

You probably already know this but for the others, different species of Bowerbirds have different color preferences! There is some speculation these preferences might relate to their own coloring. Also some speculation this might be due to regional traditions.
The Satin Bowerbird prefers blue, both the male and female have blue eyes and the male has that metallic black (almost blue-looking) feathers that some ravens have.

I don’t see a dog OR a hot dog, i don’t see what he brings to the relationship

The Barrowbird’s Barrow is not a nest or a home, think more like a box from which a potential mate will watch him do a little one man show. It’s a temporary display.

Yeah, let’s keep that red pill shit the fuck off this instance, my bro, what the fuck my guy why even say that?

Totally off base for the meme anyway since the Barrowbird’s Barrow is not the equivalent of a house/nest and is much more akin to a little opera box from which the potential mate will watch him perform a little dance.

Are the straights alright? Why not just plan a date together?

Hey now, we have an unfair disadvantage, all the nutters are lumped in with us and bringing the side down.

My “Hi!” comes after the planning phase, but I’ve been accused of not being spontaneous.

Not fair! Last time I exhibited the bleached bones of my slain enemies in my lair, I got arrested.

Seriously, what is that Film called? I have seen so many excerpts from it, but still dont know the name.

You haven’t seen Montey Python and the Holy Grail?
Relax. We’ve only ever seen it in clips. Though it is obligatory to insult you in a terrible accent: You’re mother was a Hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!
(Seriously though, it was one of those movies that almost no one has watched, but has seen most of anyway.)

If you take the German title “Ritter der Kokosnuss” and translate it back to english it is Knights of the the coconut.
Well because they use coconuts instead of horses…
