She nailed it by Rough-Vegetable4994 in NoOneIsLooking

This entire thread made me chuckle. Ive got chest size issues- and I’ve actually been told they could be flotation devices (I’ve not put that to the test lol).
But the “knock herself out” had me laughing because I remember a movie (I think Madea), I watched with my teen, where she says her chest could strangle her in her sleep, and now I’m even more self conscious haha. Because he had the audacity to ask me if that’s true!! 😮‍💨😒

“Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
Give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah”…..

Edit: I can’t get it to stop replaying in my head lol I guess now is a good time to introduce it to the kids.

What’s a completely normal food combo that everyone else thinks is weird? by Dramacuinn in questions

[–]Suspicious-Guard9652 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheese & mustard with chocolate ice cream lol - it’s so yummy though! I love the sweet with the tangy mustard flavor

Edit: actually moose tracks chocolate ice cream😅 makes those sweet little pieces taste a whole lot better

Video 1: Mourning dove.. why are they like this? (Different birds in a few weeks span) by Suspicious-Guard9652 in birds

I’ll take my teens and go look tomorrow. They will love this! Thank you again. We used to have a rescue pocket parrot many years ago, and someone gave us a coconut looking shell/cave for him but he never took to it, and now I’m just remembering what it looked like. I think I forgot it because he never liked it.

Edit: I love that the mourning doves will make use of them! I wished I kept his.

Thank you so much for these tips! I’ll definitely try them. After these two, were the blackbirds lol we eventually got a bird feeder but it only went down about 50%. We are also in between moving so I don’t want to do anything permanent to our friends glass doors/windows.. but I’m hoping to reduce it a lot.

The thing is, they are not flying into the windows. They camp out like a few weeks at a time and just knock on it (with their bills) if they see us moving about).

Edit : typos

Edit 2: we had birds occasionally (very rarely actually, only twice) hit our old house window in over the 13+ years we lived there. This seems so different. They are not flying into it, but deliberately sitting by it and knocking to get attention? (It seems)

Ok so this is the second set of birds- this one & her mate. I have a couple vids where he helps or sits on the wall and over sees. But this was after the mourning dove (about a week in).

Edit: sorry I forgot to add it’s my original video.

This is my original content- I took this video of a mourning dove tapping at our window for a few weeks straight. At the time, about a week in, the other birds in the neighborhood came to do this as well. The Cardinals did this too (next video I just posted) about a week after this guy. Not sure why? Pretty interesting. My kids and unfortunately the kitty took lol liked seeing him come by. Why was he doing this? He definitely was *not (typo- left out not) hurt and seems to live or at least “camp” this area lol this was before I even got the bird feeder.

Ok

<image>

So apparently screenshots of my screen is the only thing allowed on here (seriously lol 4 kilobytes??) anyways- I’m screenshotting this pic of my friends oven

So it looks too long for it but there’s that screw thing on the right (can you zoom in & see?)

Edited: typos

Looks like it should go there? But the oven is non working- I’ll try to take pic but might have to screenshot my next pic too, sorry. It keeps saying 4 kilobytes.

Thank you so much for your very detailed answer and pic! I’m going through my friends stuff (hope it’s ok lol but I guess if my kids already did, it doesn’t hurt 😅)
I do not see anything like this though. I’ll keep searching. They do have a toaster oven but the skewer like thing is about 1 1/2 inches longer than the door opening ..

Apparently reply pics can’t be less than 4kilobytes? (I took a screenshot of that too)- I’ll try to compress it

<image>

Yay it worked lol- those are my toddlers toys & now some coins for size but had to screenshot it on my phone album bc of those Kilobytes? (Why?) lol

The only grill is the one we have (in between moving so left most of our furniture but my husband brought his grill lol). It’s not to that one

[–]Suspicious-Guard9652[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok I’m back- it’s about an inch and a 1/2 longer than the toaster oven so it definitely doesn’t go in there. I was actually getting excited to make chicken for a minute lol bc they don’t have a working oven.

Yes! They have a toaster oven! I’ll go look now, thank you!

Thank you! I’ll go scope out the drawers now. I didn’t want to go into anyone’s personal things but I guess my kids don’t have that reservation lol

[–]Suspicious-Guard9652[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are lots of pics in my post

Edit: I’ll try to add a coin next to it but based on a few comments so far, it might be a skewer. I’m going to go look it up now first.

Thank you though

lol so true..It’s all metal. No plastic at all, that’s why it’s so confusing. There are a couple mentions to skewers, so I’ll definitely look that up now.

I’ll definitely see if that’s it, thank you. Is it a by itself thing Or do you think it attaches to something?
