Budgie Bastards
I learnt how callous and petty people can be from a very early age.

My grandad was a nice if strange man. He was fond of budgies, and always had one, and would give them all the same name, that being "Peter".

He had a small house but a spare room that he let out to lodgers. One couple seemed nice at the outset, but soon turned out to utter cunts. They kept stealing his food and he couldn't leave money lying about. I was about eight when this occurred. The final straw came when they decided, for a reason I never discovered, to chop up my grandad's kitchen table. He told them he was going to the pub for an hour, and when he returned they wanted him gone.

He arrived back to find they were still there, waiting for him, all packed, to tell him the terrible news: His budgie had died whilst he was at the pub. To spare him the grief, they had buried it for him.

Even at eight I wasn't that dumb. Yes - after treating someone like shit, as a parting shot they had slaughtered his pet budgie. So chuffing petty and vindictive it's almost funny.

What a pair of cunts.
I hope that 8 year old you pissed in their coffee.

I'm actually leaning towards
having a budgie peck out their eyes and shit in their ears.
