Your references to creatures bovine made me crack up.....
Oh ... sounds to me like you have not yet basked in our 'jibes' at each other! Bhains of a feather were lately seen flogging each other!! We've had some side-splittingly funny 'sonnets' on this subject on the KB forum (and as soon as those 2 bhains get a wind of what I've just said ... here ... be ready for projectiles of manure whizzing past ... a new use for cow patties ... 😆)
you know in India, you often find cows loitering around on the roads, swatting flies with their tails and chewing cud
I know! I grew up there! OK ... maybe I did not grow up ... 😆
'Gaay hamari mata hai' with such a serious look that I cracked up.....I don't think he's ever completely forgiven me for it.....
Are you serious?!!!
Now ... as a 'born-again biologist', I cannot say that having a cow for a mother would be an insult ... because life cannot be represented as a pyramid with homo (not so)-sapiens at the apex ... we're just a leaf in a 'tree' with each life form largely adpated into its own unique ecological niche (until we muck it up for them of course) ... in any event, we're not only not in the same Genus as cows, but not even the same Family or Order!!! So, no way could Homo Sapiens and Bos Primigenius ever mate!!! It's comparing apples to oranges ...
But ... even if cows were our mamas, no way we all haven't been in frequent shouting matches with the latter ... so honking horns are completely innocuous in comparison! 😆
I'm sure they'll grow on you.
I'll be happy if I can just sit thru them w/ a dead-pan expression ... when I start on 'Sheez' ... and 'Gimmeabreak' ... and "ya'sure" ... and 'Eeeuuu' ... I draw the line ... however, if it goes over the deep-end a la KB, then we're back to having a 'stimulating' time ... 😃
Oh ... on the epi. I saw last night, I did like when the beauty-queen takes it into her own hand to pound that petty hoodlum with her monstrous bag! But her potential beau's response was predictable (As soon as the 'scoundrel' started pawing her, I was saying "I know he ain't going to budge ... the pusillanimous, bombastic, stunted wretch!")
