OK. Let's personify the lonely seabird, Nigel, shall we? In fact, let's say the bird died next to its concrete decoy just like in the story. The ranger found the dead bird combing the concrete feathers of its female love interest? Hmm.
Why can't we say that the gannet finds a concrete block resembling a bird more interesting than the trash reporters who make up nonsensical stories? Perhaps, that is the reason that Nigel found his way to the Island of Mana. Why is it that trash reporters think they are justified by then taking those nonsensical stories to try and target a person with some BS narrative contained in some BS story, use the human qualities within that narrative that are given to the "lonely seabird" and then try to influence a person to do something that the person wouldn't ordinarily do?
I am really over the fact that people with an IQ of less than a grain of sand use the internet and daddy's inheritance to spew toxic venom at people. And then gloat. They are sick, spoiled and petulant children.
