Missing posters

I saw this on Victoria Road the other day.
It's a missing poster for someones lost pet. Nothing to strange about that until you realise it's asking for help to find a missing bird!
Im no Doctor Dolittle or anything but surely if your pet bird flies away, thats it! You're never gonna see it again?
Unlike dogs or cats, which by their very nature are land bound animals and therefore somewhat easier to find, a bird is not the sort of creature that someone is going to see hanging about nevermind try and catch!
The more I thought about it, the more ridiculous this poster seemed.
It got me thinking, if there was a more ridiculous missing poster.

Well there is now.

Jade............ Davie............. Angie

Apollo.......
.. Colin............... Fluff

I've left their contact details on there too in the hope that they have a good sense of humour and you never know, after a few calls they may see the funny side and might even allow themselves to smile again thus lift them from the pain suffered by the loss of their cockateil.

Outfuckingstanding! Nae cunt in the blog world can even compete with this stuff.

I love how towards the end they just became more and more stupid, I hope you left them up.

Yip. There still there.
Hopefully someone will get a wee laugh at them and make their day, then my work is done.

Its a tad optimistic to wish for someone to call the number but we can always dream.

Mr Eyeliner's cat went missing then last week, almost 2 years to the day she turned up in our garden! She basically said hello then stuck the vicky up and swaggered away! Gen up!

Gosh - Im working tomorrow!
And for the next 4 days.
Then I might go and positive grafitti a great spot Ive noticed down by the Quay.

Eyeliner - nice to have you back.
Was it a proper Tom Hanks Cast away moment?
Like, had you dealt with your loss and moved on only to be plunged into a whole new world of feelings upon its return from the dead?

Cas are shite anyway. No loss.
