Every being has preferences.

For instance, when you have no feathers, you might prefer a computer keyboard that is free from cockatiel poop.

And if you have feathers, you might prefer never to encounter a Q-tip.

Q-tips are what your mom uses to swab your left wing when you’ve banged it up again (she coats it with this awful yellow powder that tastes as bad as it looks).

Q-tips are clearly cowards – when not in use, they hide in plastic bags instead of coming out to fight like men.

This, of course, is why you must quickly destroy their little colonies whenever you find one.

My keen "anti Q-tip" senses are picking up a telltale vibe.

I'd better go check the rest of their lair now to be sure I got them all.
