Little prick sings and flies around and puts a shoe in the face of the class president by accident.

...because I've been to those class reunions and the pompous assholes from 12th grade are still the pompous assholes in 2015.



I can't help if if everybody hates me because I look like I'm 40, apart from body.

I assume she is a barred rock? I have them and 3 other breeds and I LOVE the free range chicken commercial. I hate that Peter Pan ad so much that no matter where I am in the house I run to mute it. What happened to the cute Aussie lizard? Flo for progressive gets on my nerves big time too, but I'll take her anyday over this little bastard.

I have considered writing to Geico and telling them I will never take out their insurance just because of this horrid ad.

We call them Ninjas lol. Also have two Americaunas and two Rhode Island Reds.

They're completely free range, but spend the day watching to see what we're up to - usually they hang around the house waiting for the door to open so they can hop on in and cluck around a while.

Had a barred rock rooster once, named Henry. He was a beauty:

Of course, if you are considering switching, and you find out that Geico would cost you more, you don't switch.

So, sure, people switch their insurance if they can find a better deal, but the same thing could be said of people who switch to ANY insurance company.

Who says, "Well, Geico will cost me more, but I'll switch anyway"? Nobody.

. . . you think he's a dick here, watch Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. His bullying cock character on that series makes his Peter Pan look positively angelic.
