Off the Mark by Mark Parisi for July 15, 2024

My girlfriend used the same ploy, but it was not my enormous plumage that gave me away . . . .

LOL!

He probably didn’t want to win

just hold a book in front of it ʷᶦⁿᵏ

Cue Carly Simon:

Well colouring is wrong. Peafowl females is green not blue. Males is blue.

Is that a fan you’re holding or are you just happy to see me?

N – B – C

(Youngsters can give me the “OK Boomer” now, I don’t mind).

P-fowl are nasty. They:

Sit on your roof (yes, they fly, but not great) and squawk like somebody is getting killed, especially in the middle of the night.

They will see their reflection in your car, think it’s another P-fowl, and completely destroy your car.

They are agressive, and will chase you down and start pecking you.

Poop everywhere.

Sit in the middle of the road, deliberately blocking traffic.

P-foul are everywhere in S. Fla, and are a protected species.

The only good thing about the birds is that they are pretty to look at (from a distance), and they eat iguanas.

His ego will give him away every time.

Schwinggg!

Ha! Playing hard to get is much much harder for a male!

Peacockboo, I see you.

Nice one, Mark!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Flattery will get you everywhere. LOL
