2) Does not own a library card/history book.

Okay so when I moved into this house I intended to befriend the local crows. I have given the crows everything, and they do not give a fuck and don't wanna be friends.

The black vultures, however, have now formed a colony which hangs around my house and they keep bringing friends.
