Justified. I was in Edinburgh with my family and we had a lovely outdoor table.
I went to the bathroom and our dinner came out while I was in the bathroom and a seagull STOLE MY GODDAMN £30 STEAK. Just hopped up on the table next to my brother-in-law and yoinked my medium-rare ribeye.
Fuck those sky-rats.
Your fault for sitting outside in Edinburgh tbf.
Aye who the fuck leaves a steak unattended in Edinburgh? I’m amazed the seagull got it before a junkie scarfed it
As a seagull, I’d have done the same
As if you wouldn’t steal a £30 pound steak if it had zero consequences and no morals attached, besides that I don’t think anything deserves to be abused before getting killed and especially not in public with children watching.
So you’re saying he should had been more effective in killing the seagull in front of the kids
I don’t see where it says he abused the bird before killing it.
I do not understand why people are so upset about this. People kill vermin all the time in far more brutal ways.
Decorum.
The only correct answer. Idgaf about some sky rat, but I’d be a little shocked if someone snatched a seagull out of the sky near me and slammed it into a wall until it died.
I’d also not give a shit five minutes later and would probably regale my friends with the story of the seagull slammer.
Right, this is animal cruelty. There are people who find humane ways to deal with “pests” or “vermin”, so the fact that we have extermination practices for some population of animals doesn’t make this okay.
Whats cruel about it? The instant death? Or maybe the hyperbole?
everyone has thought about at some time, just never been old and cranky enough to do it….
Compare this seagull bludgeoned to death with the average rat dying from poison. The rat is NOT getting the more “humane” treatment.
I agree!
Sweet. :) I now understand your post. Thank you.
And those people aren’t any more right… Seagulls are actually pretty interesting, long-living, and intelligent creatures. They simply can’t compete with humans, that’s all.
Humans should be above this sort of thing.
Then the gulls should be intelligent enough to piss off until we drop our food or throw it in trash cans.
They’re a pain in the hole
Humans?
shouldn’t 'av*
This man did nothing wrong
Even if we ignore the animal cruelty, he was bri’ish to begin with. There’s no absolving that.

Oh man wait till those children hear about what chicken wings are made of
Da kids was crying cos dat bird pinched is chip.
Shud of giv im a medal. Proper geezer.
Bad luck to kill a sea bird, Winslow.
and what? the kids are traumatized for life or some shit?
Shouldn’t of?
Literacy that matches the opinion
As if the username and account age didn’t give away your redditorness enough
That is what the guy would “of” said, yeah.
“Shouldn’t of” is a way of saying “I’m a basic dickhead who doesn’t care for your woke opinions, up to and including grammar”
Huh, TIL
It’s also regularly confused with a way of saying “I went to a school with ‘progressive’ (read: stupid) ideas about spelling, where the ‘teachers’ would say dumb shit like ‘how would you spell it at home?’”
Fortunately I missed all that nonsense and regularly had classes on the correct use of and distinction between they’re, their and there; two, too and to; bear and bare; should have vs should of; i.e. vs e.g., etc.
language changes grandpa, get with the times
KAhfkoa azflyhy kkjsdi osit?
Language changes, granpa. Get with the times.
Language changes but they should still make sense right? “Shouldn’t of” makes no sense.
Especially when the opportunity for a cool ass double abbreviation is right there. Shouldn’t’ve missed the chance.
Seagulls are filth. The more domesticated ones will basically attack you at the beach if there’s any food.
Hopefully we get seagull slaying more mainstream.
It’s gonna end up like pigeons where they used to blot out the sky
Then we will fight in the shade.
Do British people go on vacation and just eat the same bullshit as at home
This thread makes me wish i was an alien, not part the same species as this lot.
I’d rather be Fr*nch than a seagull too! Wait, nah, other way around
Gulls before Gauls.
I’d say the comments section is gross and cynical, but then I remembered this is a British community.
true, he should have acted the american way, shooting it
Whoah fuck you buddy we also use fizzy pills to killem like normal upstanding psychos
