So the other day my girlfriend visited me, and decided we were going to visit the Museum of Sex in Manhattan. So we did, because when your girlfriend wants you to take her to a building filled with porn, you make it happen.
We get there just in time for a lecture being held in the middle of the first gallery, an exhibit of the sex lives of animals. We have no idea what the topic of the lecture is, but we sit down anyway. We have all afternoon to see the porn.
The speaker was the curator of a natural history museum in Amsterdam. his museum had a large wing that had glass walls, which proved fatal to many a bird. According to the curator, this was great for the museum, as he got plenty of bird corpses to put in his exhibits. You didn't think people just donated that stuff, did you? Anyway, one day the curator was just chillin' out, maxin', and curatin' all cool when suddenly he heard an especially loud bang against the glass and got excited. He ran to look outside and found the body of a large duck that had died upon impact with the glass.
Suddenly, another duck flew down and immediately began to copulate frantically with the corpse of the dead duck. The curator was amazed, and ran to get his camera and notebook. When he returned, the duck was still going at it. Imagine the curator's surprise when upon closer inspection, both ducks were male.
That's right folks. That duck was engaging in homosexual necrophilia.
(Humorously, my girlfriend later mistakenly referred to it as homophobic narcolepsy, which conjures an image of someone so afraid of gay people that they immediately fall asleep upon encountering them.)
The curator published an article on his observations some time later and caused quite a stir in the academic world. He speculated that the first duck had crashed into the glass trying to escape an in-flight rape by the second duck, which as it turns out it surprisingly common.
In conclusion, ducks are weird. Here's today's cblogs.
Yes, I made a political statement against single-sentence cblogs tonight. They do have their place, but if you're going to make them, put at least a little effort in. A silly shoop or something.

Best story ever.
And best blog header ever as well. I fucking lol'd at Sonic.
LIES! I dont do quality write-ups!
Homosexual Necrophilia?
...COUNT ME IN!!!
Fantastic recap, as always.
Somehow, at the very first mention of birds flying into windows, I knew that was the story that would follow..
Goodness me, that's an awesome story Mecha, I don't know if it was the way you told it, but it had me in stiches.
and, of course, great recapping!
Hey, cool! You liked both my blogs! Thanks man.
Thanks for the pick! :D
Fear, Hatred, its all the same to me.
Also homophobic narcolepsy is the greatest thing ever.
For anyone curious, the blog header is taken from Episode 14 of Sonic X. It's about 12 minutes into the episode.
Yes that's right, I voluntarily searched for an episode of Sonic X and watched it until I found what I was looking for.
I support your support.
Taking a stand on the one-sentence blogs. I salute your tenacity.
And yeah, best blog header ever.
hilarious
