Do you know any paranoid people?

[Karen09]

My husband just told me a story that a person he knows won't eat carrots anymore cause they come from the ground and they are dirty from the dirt and that can't be good for you. My step-mom was from the city and she thought that milk came from the store and once she saw us milk a cow, she wouldn't drink the milk cause it had germs in it from the cow. She also thought chickens had 4 legs cause that is how they are packaged. Some peoples paranoia comes from not knowing the truth. When we use antibacteria soap, it also kills the good bacteria we need to stay healthy.

Our family is the EXACT opposite... whenever I don't feel good, what do i do? i go get one of my ducks, and bring inside and watch TV with it.

OH OH OH! I forced my mom to hold a guinnea keet today and as she was holding it she said "Now watch, I am going to end up with some wierd disease!". My husband then said "just so you know, this one has BIRD AIDS."

Nothing beats kicking back with some ducks for making you feel better. And sometimes I dont even wash my hands straight after touching them. I am more likely to get sick using a pubic washroom than anything I do with my ducks. But I will admit I do get asked some weird questions about them from the uneducated and paranoid from time to time.




Edited for spelling. I typed beaks instead of beats.

Kind of fitting mistake for a poultry forum.

Absolutely right about the public washroom. No duck pen could be worse than that...

I was at a wedding reception last night and was telling someone about my ducks and he said "It's a shame that you can't eat their eggs though". I said "you certainly can eat their eggs". He goes "But don't duck eggs make you sick?".

There is a theory that humans simply evolved as a support system for bacterial colonies. Ok, it's just my DH's theory.
