That kea description is wrong. They are not an anti hero, they're just a menace. Imagine the destruction of a genius toddler with wings and a knife. That's basically a kea.

I wanted to be a Kea at first but now I really want to be a Kea.

I already chose kea, you don’t have to keep trying to convince me.

Kea:

  • Actually a genius
  • Will fuck with your shit
  • Will watch from a distance as you discover your broken shit, will enjoy watching you #WinningAtLife

Kereru:

  • Big, bold and loud
  • If I don't like you, I will shit on you, head to toe coverage
  • Why is this branch touching the ground

I'm a mix of Kiwi and Kākāpō.

Just according to kakapo. I mean kereru. I mean keikaku.

(Translator's note: keikaku means plan)

I'll take Swamp Dinosaur roaming the steaming wetlands of Didjabringabeeralong. Hot damn that sounds fun!

I'd love to meet a Kakapo! I know that is probably not advisable for either of us, and I wouldn't, but I feel like it would be cool

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

It could turn into an interesting meeting for sure!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Had doubts about the Kākāpō, but then I reached the "mostly foliage" part and knew I'd found the match.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Well, I can only be Kakapo.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago
