That MINI is so dirty, it's hard to tell it's blue!

I love animals, but I'd kill that bird if that were my car. I wonder what color they'll repaint it?

Before I got my MINI I worked at an agricultural research station that was overrun with damned peacocks. Those things would attack any car that they could see their reflection in. They managed to leave some scratches on my car and really messed up a coworker's black car . We wanted to eliminate the things, but some people that worked there thought they were too "cute". We could have done it legally, because they are non-native birds and their population was exploding.

It really pi**ed me off to see one of those glorified turkeys wreaking its havoc on a MINI!
