[Opinions] Re: Hummingbird
in reply to a message by Bear
The only Birdie I ever knew was massively, morbidly obese. It seemed incongruous, given that birds are generally perceived as small, delicate creatures. Then again, perhaps not so incongruous, given that we've all probably heard that the phrase "eats like a bird" is inaccurate since birds actually eat a massive amount compared to their body weight.
Well, Birdie was a nickname and her name was actually Thessalonia. I quite like Thessalonia, much more than Birdie. It seems to fit a morbidly obese person better, also.

Poor Birdie. Perhaps her soul / personality was / is bird-like. Thessalonia as a name rocks, for anyone.
