March 17Mar 17 every year about this time, a pair of mallards splash down in my pool. It's been going on for 4 or 5 years now; I assume it's the same pair but I'm not sure. How long do ducks live anyway? I chase them off, and they come back. The showed up late yesterday, and I chased them off. I'm enjoying a beautiful afternoon on the patio, and "splash", they are back. I chased them off again, but I expect them to be back tonight or tomorrow. We've had a fair bit of rain lately, and there are plenty of ponds and lakes in SoCal, and the local river, the San Luis Rey, has plenty of water now. But those mofos really love to shit in my pool.
March 17Mar 17 Same, and the occasional Canada Goose (don't tell Trump). Not sure if it's the same ones, but we sure seem to be on their flight path.

March 17Mar 17 If I had a pool, I'm not sure I would want the ducks gone. They don't add to the enjoyment?

March 17Mar 17 I had this problem. Borrowed my daughter's yappy dog. They left and didn't even come back the next year like they had before.

March 17Mar 17 If they ask if you got any grapes just give them some fucking grapes or they’ll keep coming back in a very repetitive manner.

I've found that when the dogs are annoying, 100% of the time it's the dog crying for help: "Save me from life with these insufferable dickheads!"

I’ve posted multiple times about this in the “Animals you have an irrational fear of” thread. Except my fear and loathing of geese is not irrational.
