When Turkeys Attack!
-
I go to take Cosmo out to do his business and I see that a bunch of turkeys have surrounded our brand new 2021 Subaru Crosstrek. Seeing themselves in the reflection of the paint, they were pecking at the doors leaving dings and scratches over the surface. Some of the dings are very small but do distort the surface. You really have to look across the surface to see most of them. The scratches are noticable from a distance.
Impossible to photograph due to the reflectivity of the surface.
Called insurance. $100 deductible on comprehensive.
Haven't even made the first payment on it.
Fucking turkeys. Cost me $100 and a lot of inconvenience. I might have to take a few of them out and have them for Thanksgiving dinner, just to try and compensate me for my time and trouble.
The Subaru just displaced the 2005 S-500 in the main garage. The 16 year old paint on the S hasn't been waxed in years. lol The doors have a bunch a dings in them anyway and the car has 200k miles on the odometer. So, it's our "junker" now. lol

Wild turkeys are assholes.
We get a ton of them here, and they're assholes.

Mark, I'm so sorry for your troubles, but is it okay that I'm laughing at the image of you seeing this attack on your vehicle? I'm trying hard not to laugh, but it's not working ... at all.
Yeah...
Know what? Just park the Sub outside for another few days. I think we'd all enjoy a video.

George, you forgot to ask him to pretend he's seeing it for the first time with his dog needing to wee. It's Mark's reaction that makes it ... so sorry, I had to stop typing while I laughed some more.

It was rather comical. I was debating on weather to let them continue while I ran to get my phone in the other room, or keep putting on Cosmo's harness and let him scare them away. Which I did. lol. I could have stopped them a couple of seconds sooner but Cosmo, had to go!

Wild Turkey's made me a bit of an asshole more than once.
Donโt worry, I caught it at least.
