The Highly Angry Bird



Ok, I will come clean - I had come across a video of a dad who built an angry bird cake for his son and I was quite intrigued by the whole game and breaking stuff - something like Zenga but only that rather than being on edge and afraid to lose, you don't mind losing in this and love it when blocks fall :D.  As time went by, I saw bags, stuffed toys and the rest online and wondered what exactly is the story behind it - nonetheless, never had the time to go all detective on it.  I always wondered how can people love such destructive angry faced birds who go around breaking
stuff and today I got the answer- I saw this Chrome link for Angry Birds and I clicked on it - being a chrome user, it took me no time to install and use the app - I said how bad can it be - so it was a game - and it started with a few concerned birds with an empty nest in front of them, and then the screen starts to move right to 1 blue with a puzzled look and yellow with a # expression on top on him (I think you all know this means yellow has a temper), and then to the actual culprits.

One would just think oh what is this - just a slingshot - you can't even see where this is aiming what's the use - but as you keep playing u realize 1/2 an hour is gone doing this slingshot deal and breaking bricks, glass, knocking over stone and keep going on with it.  I dunno what is more funny - the way they fly or the way they speak - it is highly cute - with different birds and differing abilities, where 1 is so small you wonder what to do with it (has a small voice and you are half worried whether it is even safe to send it to the battlefield), the other has a speed boost which says in a deep voice "let it rip", and a red regular 1 - all say the same thing.  What is funny is that these birdies burst after their turn, and when you win the game, you have to wonder if these birds are cheering for winning or for the 1 who burst lol.  Also that the green 1s (enemy side) die almost suddenly while you have to see your birds get the worst of torture with each of the bricks etc falling on them, or when they hit wall and fall on the ground, for each instance going "OW, OW, OWWW!!!"  lol - it half breaks my heart n half you just have to go aww with the cuteness of it, yet a small prayer to let the torture end. 

It is another thing though, that it is a huge stress reliever and makes you feel good breaking stuff - coming from a peaceful person who is too civil to break anything in real life, THIS IS AWSUMMMM!!!!  Alright, I'm out, back to throwing birds.
