I like them. Hanging out at the hotel parking lot 6:00 a.m. in the morning and they are everywhere here. I don't mind them at all.
Except.
30 or 40 years ago I was working on the boardwalk. The seagulls picked up large objects and dropped them wherever I was. They were trying to smash clams as far as default behavior is concerned. But they would pick up bottles and then drop them next to me and they would explode.
One day a bottle exploded next to me and I thought the parking lot guy threw a bottle at me. I raged. I went after this guy and I was going to kill him for throwing a bottle at me. He explained it was seagulls. Those f****** will drop bottles to open stuff up and eat it and we then painted pictures of seagulls everywhere so the seagulls flying above did not think they could drop a bottle there, there would be a seagull there to steal their food from them.
