Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

I am right there with you, I do not want to experience that. The parrot that guy I know has got hold of some guys bottom lip a month or two ago and just split it right in two, I think he needed stitches

Yeah, that'll fuck you up.

Another one is a Macaw. Google 'Macaw beak' and look for a high resolution closeup. Positively fucking prehistoric.

Birds are descended from dinosaurs and a Macaw beak is positively fucking prehistoric.

That looks like the beak on that guys bird. I steer well clear

I did a search and just learned that a macaw is a parrot.

See? We're learning important things!

I thought it looked quite a bit like that guys parrot

It's a 'new world' (Americas, considered just one continent/entity in EU instruction) parrot, from what Google told me.

And, yeah...

AMAZINGLY HIGH ON MY LIST OF SHIT NOT TO HAVE HAPPEN, like AMAZINGLY HIGH, is 'being bitten by a parrot.

It could trivially take a finger off.

In my life I can recall at least a dozen times someone has asked me if I want to touch or hold their parrot. Some of those times have been while I was fucked up. So far, I have not touched one. So far, I haven't even let one on my finger.

Which is kinda odd as I've handled a few raptors - including an eagle. But, in those instances I had a thick leather glove that covered me up to my elbow. They don't use those when handling parrots!

I think I'd use tongs to handle a parrot, which is probably why I do not actually have one.
