Wait, are you saying that’s a bird, insect, or mammal beginning with “c”?

Wow! (Is it OK to gloat?) What a come-back; I was nearly _last_-place in the last two Feuds.

Funny thing is I almost got perfect score. I had “whale” typed in; I knew all Dopers knew whales _ **have breasts** _ (indeed can hardly look at anything else. 😃 ) and knew that all other Dopers knew that, and likewise knew, but figured some would reconsider and suspect some Dopers might suspect … that some other Dopers were suspicious…

Holy cow, number 42. I do not rock at this.

The funny part was how miserably I bombed on the question about birds beginning with the letter C. 1) Crows are _always_ outside of my window, cawing and shitting on everything. I wrote an MPSIMS thread whining about them. 2) Chicken is obvious, considering I eat them about once a week. 3) Chickadee isn’t a better answer than the one I gave, but I’m surprised it didn’t come to me considering how much I love chickadees, and that my big sis used to call me then when I was a little kid.
