1. I'm torn between the birds and the movie, so I didn't vote.
But I always chuckle when I see the word 'Flamingo,' because it remains me of the wedding gift once my sister got from her landlord, who wasn't the brightest to walk the Earth. Certain words were just not really familiar with him.

So he gave my sister and her (now ex) husband a set of really nice Murano Champagne glasses, mouth-blown. On the stem, they had a pink flamingo. I think she still has them.

But, he called them 'Flimbingo.' And he was serious. ;)

2. Birds.
I'm a bird person and am fascinated by the fact that the famous pink color comes from their diet of shellfish. If they can't get that specific diet at a zoo, the feathers are sometimes dyed pink...But I'll also say this..They are NOISY SOB's....

3. I gotta go birds.
Living in South Florida, I'm more opposed to the lawn ornaments than most. And John Waters is to film what Florence Foster Jenkins is to singing.

4. Bird
I like the birds. Most birds.

Canada Geese, maybe not as much.

The infamous 1979 Bascom Hall Prank orchestrated by The Pail & Shovel Party.

Fast Fact: Jim Mallon, the Leader of the Pail and Shovel party would later go on to co-create MST3K.
