ducks

You thought Tinder was about having a clever pick-up line or being rich, handsome or tall? Okay, those might help but also all you need is a good imagination and the ability to write a quick story about a duck. Hopefully this doesn't end in unsolicited duck pics.

This Redditor, ColonelDredd, rescued a baby duckling from the icy grip of certain death this summer when he found it all alone.

If this were a Disney movie we'd expect the two of them to be bonded for life in an eternal love affair. They'd have a misunderstanding and part ways. But then in the third act the duckling would come and save ColonelDredd's family from a mustache-twirling villain.

Alas, that's not how life goes. Instead, as you can see, ColonelDredd was brutally attacked by this ungrateful little a**hole upon their reunion. 

Hey, still a better love story than Twilight.


The resulting thread lead to some extremely absurd stories about people's own experience with water fowl.  

In fact, one might be sitting near you on your next flight! fingers crossed

Kasey has her very own pack of misfits. There's the dogs: Roxy, Edith, Rose, and Jake. The cat: Mia. And even a couple of ducks that hang out from time to time. The whole family loves to go on hikes together and wear matching outfits. And yes, they're all rescues!
