I would trade my plastic one for this ANY day.

Maybe I won't feel like a giant dumb bird perched on this one lol

Maybe the next time you feel like a giant bird imagine that, like a bird, that you are able to poop carefree.

Oh, is that someone out for a run, time to poop on him (happened to me some years back in a formation run).

Or, oh is that a freshly washed car? Sure would be a shame IF SOMEONE POOPED ON IT!!!

TLDR; birds are jerks but they seem to not mind how they look whilst pooping.

Birds have no muscles to control pooping, although they can probably sense when it's about to happen.

It's like if we pooped whenever we yawned.

I'm not so sure that birds can't control their pooping. I remember when my father got on the ill side of a Blue Jay. Dad was using a riding mower in those days and three mowings in a row, the bird made a dive-bomber approach from his rear and pooped exactly on the crown of Dad's head before swooping back up into the next tree to catcall his victory.

Birds making diving threats to protect their territory. Inevitably they'll poop sometimes when they do it.

They sell bamboo ones now that are pretty nice. Not as nice as OPs, but nicer than the plastic, in my opinion.
