Pretty sure humans have already been eating before the TV was invented.
Birds ARE animals, just like us, and the history of life is that much of the time, feeding is done opportunistically, with “intelligence” not necessarily playing much of a role.
I have not watched a television intentionally since 2003. You should try it sometime.
Why did you insert that word “intentionally” in your statement ???
Well, because sometimes you get stuck in a space that has one on, and they can be super hard to ignore in those situations.
So… species which haven’t invented television (all others) are by this definition “smarter” than that which did (us), because they don’t suffer a downside of the technology?
Reminds me of a drunken conversation with a pubby about how he thought birds and fish were “smarter” than us, because they had to navigate in 3D instead of on a plane. At least that guy had half a point…
Don’t tell him about pilots!
If TV ads were targeted at birds, they would surely bite
Are you implying that birds are not animals?
Clearly they’re gouvernment surveillance drones
No I decide my food after looking in my fridge and choosing something from there.
If other animals had cash to spend we’d figure out ways of marketing to them too.
So, food has to come from the market ???
Ah yes, intelligent enough to eat the first thing you come across that you know you can eat (last part optional if you’re hungry).
