TechDif talk about the Boobrie...bird.
Article of Conversation: Boobrie
.
Tropes:
- Facepalm: Gary is quite annoyed at the lack of creativity of Scotlands' sailors when he gets told what a Waterbull is.
- Imagined Innuendo: Inverted, as Tom had clearly chosen the article due to the birds' name sounding funny and so everyone can riff on it with innuendo. Matt, however, knew it was a bird, so all of that intended banter was lost.Gary: ...and as the bullet of Mirth headed for the tit-shaped gag-fest...
- Lame Pun Reaction: When Tom asks what Boobries normally prey on, Gary says "small little cushions". Cue annoyed laugh by Tom and Matt.
- Mood Whiplash: While Chris and Gary joke about the Auke, Tom, with some shock in his face, notices that the last pair of Auks were killed, their killers were named, and that they were strangled to death, and the last Auke egg was smashed.
- Pun: Matt mentioning Selkies having "Selkie sticks".
- Selkies and Wereseals: Chris mentions the former and got additional points as it was related to the shapeshifting of the Boobrie.
