removes feathers
And now it's a man!
Adds fedora
Perry the Man?!?
Now I really want an avatar style platypus bird. Imagine how cute a flying platypus would be!
Actually thinking about it, I feel like that would be the perfect representation of all four elements (venom has to count for fire, no?).
Aren't they venomous?
That’s why they’re also fire! They swim, look like badger moles, and (if they had wings) they fly!
I have a feeling that if avatar had a platypus it would just be a platypus.

Flawless deduction.
All you people mocking OP-- careful now, that's a slippery slope and before you know it you'll be believing that dogs are mammals.
But then why Pluto is a pet dog and Goofy is a human dog? Checkmate scientists.
Easy explanation: slavery.
Chickens are birds, aren't they? Just like how penguins are birds, and unlike penguins they can actually fly short distances.
Yes, chickens and penguins are birds
Source?
Eggs, beaks, feathers, warm blooded.
We can probably just use process of elimination... They don't have live babies or nurse their young, so not mammals... They're warm blooded so not reptiles, amphibians, or fish... I think it's self evident that they aren't slime, mold, bacteria, or a virus... So, we're left with birds
The ability to fly does not make a bird. Birds are actually a pretty easy group to identify. Does it look like a bird? Great! It's a bird!

Reminds me of some 20 questions-like tv trivia where someone asked "is it an animal" and the other went "well, not exactly an animal". It was a bird. 😳
That reminds me of this clip. I showed this to a few people who also agreed that fish are not animals, at which point it turns into an argument about about Domain - Kingdom - Phylum - Class etc and I feel like I am losing my mind. Getting gaslit by stupid people is a frustrating experience.

Damn. And here I was, being a fool, calling chickens dinosaurs...
Nah, but dinosaurs were all chickens. One little asteroid and they all just died, like cowards.

No they're dinosaurs
Birds 👏 aren't 👏 real 👏
I love the meme but it goes so far sometimes I worry how many genuine believers there might be. Flat Earth 2.0
Last time I mentioned that birds are legitimately being turned into drones I received tons of negative votes. Be careful, the government WILL try to silence you
holding a chicken to the crowd BEHOLD! A BIRD!
Anyway, both chicienband ducks are dinosaurs. That's what I tell my child. Birds are just a subcategory of dinosaurs.

Some folks fully deserve the bird
I have an answer but no one would want to know it.
Wait until he figures out Ducks, Chickens, and Alligators are all Archosaurs.
Are we asking normal humans, or Noem?
Wait until user IsEenYourShine gets to the part about dinosaurs.
Or if you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson, all birds are chickens.
