I identify very closely with Sarah in this comic.
My rules for the Angelic Tweeting Bird that I have just now decided on:
1 - Unless there’s a joke to be had (like
rushing in to cover Grace), use as a last resort, and try other covering methods first.
2 - If the scene is at all serious in tone, do not use the bird.
3 - Tip 20% of the total bill. No more, no less. They are very particular about this for some reason.
4 - If the bird is on vacation, or otherwise not available, consider their close friend and ally, the Prude Puffin.
