So anyway, since these three ducks hung out together, and were like, twice the size of REGULAR ducks, had clipped wings, AND were.... kinda friendly towards people? Or at least happily approached for food and such and mainly stayed on the banks, we figured they were farm ducks, who had just wandered by one day and just decided to keep coming back for free snacks...

Sadly, didn't seem to be the case.

About a week or two ago, we noticed some NEW arrivals to said pond. ALSO ducks, just... really friggin big. One white apart from their orange beak, one slightly larger, and black, with irridescence on their wings (guessing male due to said irridescence), and one which we assumed was the child because it was like... tawny/black and white? I think? Looked like a cross between the two anyway.

@monorail aren't they that solo musician who wrote that fun song about fireflies or something

Sooooo

There's a pond nearby where I live. and I do mean nearby. like... a 2 minute walk if that. Literally across the road, a little way down a little driveway to its carpark, and boom. Pond. a big one, for fishing apparently. And also ducks. There are ducks there. Lots of them. Just chilling out. They mostly steer clear of people though, as they're wild ducks.

No, really this isn't a leadup to a rickroll or its predecessor, duckroll, whatever the FUCK that was about. goodness.

No this is actual ducks we have now.

Who wants to see pictures of them?

Oh hey that reminds me

who wants to see our ducks?

Is it REALLY a Rickroll if you know it's coming?

and you open twenty tabs of it in rapid succession because you like the cacophany it produces?

@brownpau @finn ...

....okay that's the first time I've legit been rickrolled without expecting it holy shit.

I ... I have no counter to this.

@alahmnat@snouts.online ...shit that's clever.

@katherine Somehow this meme keeps going, after literally a decade.

It's been going for so long that the meme itself has become self aware.

@lyliawisteria@whomst.dog

i want you to know this toot physically hurts to read.

congratulations

you have invented Pain over IP.

@alahmnat@snouts.online It loads the augmented reality for your pets, though support is a little spotty at the moment, owing to the lack of noticeble feedback from its users...

what with very few pets using UNIX systems... or having fingers that can type on a keyboard.
