What's up with the owls?

Post by The Telepathic Kid »

I've noticed a few people having owls as avatars.
What's up?
I mean, I know owls are cool and all, but why?

From Wiki:

'Owls are an order of birds of prey. Most are solitary, and nocturnal, with some exceptions... though owls are typically solitary, the literary collective noun for a group of owls is a parliament'.

this board is becoming a parliament, hmm unsettling as fuck...

my first guess was that it was one or two people acting independently at first and then a few others decided to owl-out too just to start something neat and cryptic and shake things up. i was going to do it myself, in fact, but i didn't want to find out too late that it represented some shitty movie or book series that's coming out. so i guess i'll just confess ignorance and wait stupidly to hear what's going on.

That's cause you rodents are treading on our turf. The sky belongs to the owls, food!
