They do seem like the most evil of birds, don’t they?
They’re often considered creatures of ill omen, aren’t they? In Shakespeare they’re often used as a symbol.
Yeah, but that’s because you’re just seeing them with Carmina Burana playing.
Do you think I should get something else on my iPod?
Tijuana Taxi by Herb Alpert. [Hums the song.] You see, that’s a nice crow. Put a sombrero on it, take the edge off it.
Yeah, but even if you had Carmina Burana and you were looking at a robin, you wouldn’t think the robin was evil, would you?
I would.
Would you?
Yeah, dirty bastard robin.
