Crow paradox

amewarashi[livejournal.com profile] rainmage

Yes, renamed. Let the initial confusion and spam begin! I also changed my layout, but people who read my Inksome might already know that one. I renamed my [livejournal.com profile] atomicdaydream's username as well.





Speaking of the crow paradox -that is, crows can recognize human faces, but humans can't tell crows apart for our lives. Not even people who breed/raise crows can recognize their birds, I read today. Then I imagined these folks putting color ribbons on crows and shit. Or even better, bowties. For some unholy reason, I thought that mental image was extremely cute and surreal at the same time, regardless of the fact crows aren't what one would call cute.

... video unavailable in my country, aaagh. *is used to it*

Crows in bowties ARE cute. Absolutely. At least my mental image of them is. XD

Loving the rename! I think it has a nice ring to it :D (But I can't stop associating it with Raine, now xD)

Two thumbs up! ^^

Did somebody say, "Crows with bowties?"

I think crows are adorable even without bows and ribbons, but I started getting sick of them after they appeared in hordes (murders?) on my campus. (It's kind of strange how they seem to replace the entirely white seagulls for most of the year.)

At first I thought you wrote "Clow Paradox," and I immediately thought "What in the world has CLAMP done now?!"

Also, I like both of the new names! "Rainmage" really does have a nice ring to it.

That's adorable ♥

I see what you mean. I've never met a crow or a raven in real life, but my city is infested with seagulls, being a port and all. They're pretty to see, but it might get tiresome and even creepy when it's every day. There's also a lack of pigeons except for punctual places; I wonder if the 'gulls kill them?
