.035 - it's strange facts time with Cap'n Kirk

[captain_jtkirk]

Did you know, that a group of unicorns is called a blessing? And that a group of ravens is called a murder?

Comments

[19centconstable]

Yes, I did.

[Doesn't everyone? Know that? And frequently talk about groups of unicorns? No? George may be on the wrong boat...]

[captain_jtkirk]

And that a group of toads is a knot?

[19centconstable]

That I didn't know. I can't say I'd think a group of toads would be very pleasant.

[captain_jtkirk]

I can't say I'd be fond of a group of ravens either.

[19centconstable]

They are a bit spooky.

[captain_jtkirk]

Indeed.

I'm Jim Kirk, by the way.

[19centconstable]

Owls are spooky too, with how their heads can just pop around.

George Crabtree. Pleasure.

[captain_jtkirk]

I don't trust anything that can bend in ways that I can't, as a general rule.

Where do you hail from George Crabtree?

[19centconstable]

I don't know: I've met several contortionists, and they've all been lovely people.

Toronto. Which is Canada. Oh, and: 1897.

[captain_jtkirk]

I've met several beings that were like that too, and they weren't really that nice.

I know what Canada is. And 1897.

[19centconstable]

I've met mainly circus performers. And the magician Harry Houdini.

Do you? From a personal experience?

[captain_jtkirk]

No shit?

Yeah, I've seen it. From a great distance. [Read: space]

[19centconstable]

No, I...haven't met any...sh-...sorry?

[captain_jtkirk]

It's an expression, sorry.

So Canada. You have moose right?

[19centconstable]

Oh, I see. [No George doesn't.]

Yes, certainly, but not in the city. Where are you from?

[captain_jtkirk]

Iowa. It's in America.
