At Least it Missed my Hair.......

[dnyed]

Happy Fathers Day all!


To celebrate, we took the train downtown, and had lunch. To counter all the calories we took in, we decided to walk to a distant train station (across the river). We took in Saturday Market, and window shopped on the way to the bridge. As I was looking in to the window at the closed Outdoor Store, I felt something hit my chest. I thought someone threw something at me. I looked down, and discovered that I had been poop-bombed by a dang pigeon! Oh My God! The first thing I wanted to know was "DID IT HIT MY HAIR?????" I was assured by my laughing family that my hair was spared. We had no napkins, nothing, I didn't have my purse. I think I said "What the hell did that thing eat??" I used my drivers license (thankfully brought with me in case I was hit by a bus)to scrape off what I could, and luckily just zipped up my vest (my favorite VW vest, the inside was hit) all the way up, and I was set.


We continued our walk, but I couldn't wait to get home, I felt so icky. Sorry no pictures. I ripped the stuff off and threw them in the wash before anyone could grab a camera...

I Hate Pigeons!


Feel free to laugh. At least, it missed my hair!

[Breez]

I can just picture it!

Thats one the family will be talking about years from now!

[belle]

LOLOL!! At least it missed your hair! I have been poop-bombed before too... but i was driving topless in my nbc and drove underneath a tree with like a million birds... and BAM... hit me on the shoulder! It was disgusting!

[Breez]

I got poop bombed once in 2nd grade at recess... the kids teased me for months after that! I just remember the teacher taking me to the bathroom and soaking my head in the sink and telling me how nasty bird germs are... as if I did it on purpose and set up my place, just for the bird to hit me. argh. The teacher called my mom... and I remember that the teacher tried to make it sound like it was my fault. My mom thought it was funny and she came and picked me up so I wouldnt have to take the bus home... my momma told me it happens to everyone at somepoint. lol

It was a rough day for my 7 year old self. rough.

I got seagull bombed on bare skin at the beach. not too good. yuck. had to wash up in the ocean. hehe.

[dnyed]

Bare skin? Near a water source? No problem. (relatively speaking, anyway...). Clothing and hair? A problem.


It's comforting to know that I am not the only one to have had this happen. Thanks for sharing, and not laughing too hard.

[kcfoxie]

ugh that happened to me once out at saturday market too (but in 2003!)

[DannyRandomState]

Bummer about the experience. I was bombed by a sparrow at work last week.

I should have known better than to sit at the table under the tree. Luckily it was just my arm. Little bastards. And the people at work just encourage them by feeding them while they eat.

Glad your inner child was not wounded by the experience.

[Breez]

LOL, I think it happens to everyone at least once. So we can laugh with you... (not at you!)

[spacebratt]

LOL
Yep been a victim myself

[dnyed]

It's so very comforting. Thank you all.

Welcome to the club!

I just saw a bumper sticker the other day that said "get revenge s*** on a pigeon" now I know why they made that sticker.

[weldtech]

Haha. That's funny because it didn't happen to me.

[JuggBug]

OMG! I've been pooped on twice (while by birds anyway ) and both times were at DISNEYLAND!!!!

Both times, they got me right smack dab in the middle of my head!

Pigeons are the !!!!!!! LOL

Sorry you got pooh'd on....

[AmyJane]

LOL Deb! Bird poop is nasty!
I've never been pooped on but when I was in Cozumel a few years ago I was having my pics taken with 2 parrots. I set my purse down and when I was done I picked it up and slung it over my shoulder. There was parrot poop ALL over it and it got smushed on my WHITE t-shirtand my hand! Good thing we were headed back to the ship!
