I'm curious, what did your friend consider "parrot" and what was considered "other birds"? :)

ive had arguments with so many people about the fact that parakeets and cockatoos/tiels are parrots

one of the worst reasons ive ever been given for believing they arent is because parrots are green...i was like wtf?

She thought Peppers, my RLA was my only parrot....

The BE2s and sun conure are just birds I suppose.

The store I worked at once acquired a "Yellow Crested Conure" turned out to be an amazon.

Did the Amazon have a crest? Funky! LOL

LMAO Too funny!

I bet these are the same people that think we are nuts for pampering our fids, taking them on outings, cooking for them, constantly cleaning up after them... and then they ask how we can consider them kids... LOL

Oh and Geek........ loooooooooooooove the new sig!! I've seen it change twice today though... waiting to see if there is another new one on the horizon LOL.

Geek, that reminds me...

How the heck do you get the size down enough to be able to fit under the size rules for sigs, or do you add it each post manually?

[guest1717171]

i host the image on one of my websites
so it doesnt impose the size limit

if anyone wants me to host an image let me know...

and yea i made a crazy bird lady one earlier but it was too busy with the other signature
so i redid it lol
i have too much time!!

I hosted mine, but it still imposed the limit! GRRR!
