4. that feels terrible, I know
I hit a pigeon- a diseased, filthy pigeon- with my car about two months ago. I felt so bad. My daughter kept taunting me... "Bird killer!".

5. Rest assured there was probably something wrong with the bird....
There was probably something not quite right about it. Birds don't usually get hit by cars. At least this is what my husband tells me when stuff like this happens.

7. Was it white, and carrying an olive branch?
Cheney will be pissed; he was using it for target practice.

10. i'm sorry. i know it always feels horrible to hit something.

11. I hit a pigeon one time. It kept flying for a few seconds even though it had no head.
Poor bird.

16. You must be really strong.
But isn't using an automobile to hit a bird with kind of overkill? Why not just use a bat or a tennis racket?

Picking up an entire car to whack a bird with just seems like too much effort.

Unless we're talking Matchbox cars.

Then I would say "good shot".

19. You may want to hire an attorney for that.
Leaving the scene of an accident with injuries? Tsk, tsk.
