Do you fight around your birds?

lol good thread! :D When my mum gets angry and yells at me (not often!) Ash puffs up, pins her eyes and growls and screams, bobbing slowly up and down in a threatening manner, and flicks her wings. Last time, mum couldn't get a word in from all the birdy calls... Usually makes me laugh, which of course escalates the situation- oops! But I'm so grateful of Ash, and it shows how protective even the little birdies can be. If my sister were to yell at me, heaven help her! Ash has lunged at her to bite, and even flown at her before... But then again, she just hates my sister.

When my boyfriend and I argue, with raised voices, Caesar just starts yelling too, I think he enjoys it to be honest....

since I live alone, this is not an issue. If I started arguing with someone in the house, they'd have to haul me off to crazy camp. LOL

We have been told by people that they spoke like sailors, not one cusses or says anything naughty. They hear the Min Pin's tags on collars and say "who wants a cookie, time to go out." I have heard Angel say "oh, what the hell" Charlie has heard dont you bite Momma, be nice, and I get "Good Morning Sunshine" believe me I have never called him sunshine- but sh-t head! Funny how they dont repeat even after 20 some years. My husband and I dont fight we talk and its always when we are laying in bed, kids can say no fighting or name calling we always sit and talk and work out what's rubbing someone the wrong way. I was in a very abusive relationship physically and mentally/emotional Never will live or put up with that ever again!

I've never had a fight with anyone in front of Luen, but my little brother is quick to temper and often has screaming matches WITH Luen. Which I think is incredibly annoying, but Luen seems to enjoy the opportunity to scream his head off at someone with them responding. I don't think my brother realises he's effectively rewarding Luen with attention for doing something 'wrong', and my brother doesn't listen when I try to tell him that
I'd like to point out that yes, I say 'little brother' but he is eighteen
If I ever thought my brother was scaring Luen I'd do something about it, don't worry.

my husband and I do not fight. we try not to swear, and because we have greys, sometimes spell words....

[GlendaNS]

Stella can cut loose with such language..... WHEW!!!! She means it too!!!! She cusses Maxie out sometimes for hollering. She absolutely did not learn that here!!! We never holler bad things to any of the birds.

Be careful Lisa, they do learn to spell!!!! LOL

When hubby and I hollar at each other, which isnt often, Lizzy starts hollering and it sounds like she is just right in the argument but you just cannot make out the words but she is real adamant about what she has to say about it all. Then she will yell "JACK! KNOCK IT OFF! GETout-of-ear!git git git git git!!!wad-r-yoo-doooing!!!!JACK! HONCHO! SICKO!" (ponch & cisco, all of our dogs,lol)
It makes us stop and laugh - and then she laughs and says "DANCE DANCE DANCE LIZZIEEEEEEE!"
And we laugh some more and forget what we were arguing about. I think its even funnier when he is POd and I make him laugh by saying "Dance Dance Lizzzieeeee" and holding my arms out like wings.
are we just a bunch of weirdos???? great thread!!!
