I bought a duck today.

That is all.

oh fine I’m posting this because of this thread here http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=4571910

A duck? Where? When? Why? You can’t just make enigmatic statements out of the blue!

When is dinner?

It isn’t a dinner duck. It’s a bathtime duck.

<whisper> Get the marinade and meet me out back at the grill <whisper>

I ducked a buy yesterday! I might regret it later, but I think I made the right call.

Have you taken it to a cave and made it quack yet?

Well? What were the results? We’re all dying to know!

I bought a duck today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real

I showered with a duck this morning. It was in the tub when I jumped in. I felt no need to remove it. It’s just a little duck.

Aflac!

Duck me.

You must be expecting a lot of down time…

If you think buying a rubber duck from a major retailer is cheap…just wait til you see the bill! No— best to purchase from a local school or charity when they have their annual drake sale.

dutchboy, do you have any cats? I have cats, and I have ducks, and one of my cats likes to take the ducks and distribute them all around the house. Every day I put the ducks back on the tub, every night I come home to ducks all over the place. I think he thinks they are a good substitute for gifts of live prey. I suppose I should consider myself lucky.

Based on the lack of details in the OP, I suspect we’re all being goosed.

I thought I felt something…

sniff Ive always wanted a duck. sniff :frowning:

All right, this is my third useless post in this useless thread, but I wanted to share the fact that I have the title running in my head to the tune of “A Day in the Life.”

I bought a duck today, oh boy
I am a ducky man who made the grade…

And now, so do you. Muuaahahahaa.

Be careful, I’ve seen this sort of thng before–it may escalate. I mean, first you buy and duck,

then you buy another duck,

and then you buy a goose.
Really, you’re just running in circles.
