    So, this bird walks into a store....

    This was forwarded to my email I do not know how valid it is, I just thought it was funny, so I thought I would post it, if you can confirm this please do.

    So, this bird walks into a store....


    A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop.

    The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.

    Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.

    The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland, and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.

    Customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of chips because they think it's so funny.

    That's hilarious! Guess he needed something to go with the fish.
    If the early bird gets the worm. . .

    Next thing you know, he drops out of school and sneaks cigarettes behind the dumpster.

    The whole story

    Here's a video from BBC news that shows the whole process including breaking the bag open and sharing it

    That's a bit harsh, Mcmurde didn't know he was repeat poster. I say we forgive him and move on.

    Har,

    I Duluth he would have been arrested or shipped out of town by the locals before he taught any of the other malcontent sea birds his evil ways.
