Breaking Gay Duck News

Gay_ducks

For the third year in a row, a pair of male ducks (not necessarily the ones pictured above) have returned to a park in Sweden, and from all appearances, look like partners for life: "Far from the torments of bird flu and temptations of the opposite sex, the two common shelducks appear only to have eyes for each other -- in a sort of ducky gay marriage."

As soon as this was discovered, the International Duck Council immediately introduced legislation to define duck marriage as between a male and a female.

A conversative student of psychiatry had this to say: "They're quackers."

Well, if they walk like ducks, look like ducks, and quack like ducks, then it should follow that they're both "patos."

Now everyone knows my partners name.

Penguins, flamingos, now these two. It`s a bird world of love.

They`ll be calling bird flu avian AIDS next to try and stop this new movement of same-sex love.

Early homophobic response was clear. Your parents, warning of impending danger, always yelled " DUCK ".

Now, we know what they meant......

Is the use of the word "ducky" in this context meant homophobically?

How clever many of us are as wordsmiths. LOL

Mine wasn't clever. It was wicked weak.

But to the rest, Bravo!
