I'm honestly surprised that I couldn't find a blog devoted to animals bumping into glass.
Related story: Growing up, my mom and her two sisters lived in two rooms linked by a walk-in closet, with a sheet hung in between to divide up the space. One Christmas a bunch of us kids were playing up there. There was this half-grown cat up there with us, and she was just doing laps, sprinting down the hall and then up through the closet as fast as she could. Being much younger and crueler then, my cousin decided it would be funny to put a large brass lamp on the our side of the curtain in the middle of the floor.
On the next lap, we heard the thunder of approaching paws and then the oddly bell-like sound of a cat crashing full tilt into a hollow brass lamp. She staggered around for a few minutes, but seemed to recover quickly enough.
I feel bad now, but at the time I nearly ruptured myself laughing. That's still one of the funniest series of sound effects I've ever heard.
once my father was driving me to school in the winter and up here the sun rises fairly late during the winter, so it was still very dark out
we're driving through a residential area near my school and this dude's out jogging with his black lab that suddenly decides to dash out in front of our Volvo
my dad braked but couldn't stop in time, beaned him right in the head with the fender and the dog collapsed like a sack of rice
the owner drags him off the road as we pull over, the dog's still alive thankfully and the owner asks us to watch the dog while he goes to get his truck nearby so he can take him to the vet hospital
so we're watching over the dog trying to comfort him but not really able to do anything useful and the dog starts to come around and he's trying to move so we're trying to hold him still
dude pulls up with his truck and suddenly the dog hops up on all fours and jumps into the bed of the truck wagging his tail excitedly because he gets to go on a trip! so funny

Mom & I are driving along out in the countryside in Oklahoma back i nthe mid-nineties. Middle of the day. Radio is on, not talking about anything, just cruising down a long highway.
*WHUMP*
An owl collides with our windshield and leaves a huge scuffmark on the glass from all the oils or whatever in his feathers as he slids up and over the car.
I caused a minor traffic jam on a two lane RI road a while back when a seagull decided to fly in front of my Jeep.
Poor thing smacked right into my headlight and suddenly I was driving through a cloud of white feathers, like a down comforter had exploded in midair. Both hilarious and sad at the same time.
What is it that's so hilarious about animals bonking into glass walls
and I'm not saying this in a "Shame on you, it may have hurt itself!" way
it's just damn funny
because animals are dumb and us humans laugh at those less fortunate than ourselves. the thumbs up is really th biggest insult to the animal kingdom ever.
One time my cat ran into the screen door
just BONK and a sharp bounce back
I think part of it is that most of the time, it doesn't even seem to phase them at all. If they made a yelp in pain or whatever, it woudln't really be funny. But when they're all just *bonk* and then seem to have just kind of a "huh" look, then it's funny.
Man, you're not allowed to be afraid of blue whales.
Man they are like fucking mini malls that swim around. No that shit is terrifying. Not looking to eat me specifically, but if I get caught up in it oh well.
I have recurring nightmares that I am treading water and a blue whale swims under me and I wake up in a cold sweat.
Spiders are excellent, when I was visiting my parents a few weeks ago, a tarantula got stranded on our front doorstep because of the rain, he hung around until the next morning then buggered off to do whatever it is that tarantulas do.
when I was a kid there was a big ol hairy spider living behind the toilet. one day I took my plastic sword and shield from Halloween and chased the nasty spider away.

and spiders, but nobody wants to see that
most people would love to dive with a blue whale
but I think I'd be tempted to touch its giant two storey penis

Goddamn so scary.
Its not gay if you don't touch its enourmous raiders of the lost arc sized balls.
you still have much to learn
I gave you every opportunity to turn back before it was too late.
seriously, I am OK looking at pictures just as long as they aren't crawling on me ohgodewwww
I looked up the coordinated for this on Google maps and was just a little disappointed that I couldn't see anything out of the ordinary
