This meme is incorrect. A botatist would have names like:

"Little bastard who ate my Alyssum maritimum"

"Fucker who at the flower buds on my Forsythia europea"

"Little shithead who dug up my Lathyrus odoratus"

Correct. Also,

"Poops seeds of..."

"Nests in..."

I feel like even a botanist would know a seagull because their assholery is so epic. The seagull's assholery, not the botanists', that is.

Yeah, but don't give them the credit. I'll never forgive them for shitting on me that one time (botanists that is...)

False. Those are all drones.

I call them pretty birds, unless I'm calling them a little fucker, and that's because it's a chickadee that won't hold still for 2 goddamn seconds so I can get a photo
