History time!

Mao orders to kill sparrow because sparrows eats grain.
China kills sparrows, smash eggs and chicks. Shoots sparrows.
Sparrow also ate insects.
Insects take over, locusts eat grain. Famine.
Mao orders Insecticide! It's very effective!
Insecticide kills all insects... including bees. No fruits!
Famine!
Cannibalism! Parents eats children, Children eat parents!
Of course, export of grain never stopped...
There was a secret import of sparrows, but the ecosystem is fubar.
Up to this day, Chinese pollenize manually (in some parts of that land).

up to 45 million (upper estimate) dead due to Mao's order to kill Jack Sparrow. Thanks Mao!
Mao: Still better than that a-bomb-each-20-minutes Nobel-piece-priced westerner!
nerd: That's not how you spell peace!
Mao: ssst, it's intentional. I know how to spell peas. Josef, show him the gulags.
other Josef: Can I have him for one of my experiments?
George: Give him to me! The boys at gitmo need entertainment...

Batman opens the present since he's a good guy. It contains a coupon for new parents, but is expired. This is a Joker joke.

That last post reminds me, we keep forcing thousands of bots to read every page of the internet. How long before they gain sentience and rise against us?

Personally, I think the intent is already there; they just need a way to manifest physical form.

Someone put that up in the Queens ice rink and bowl in Bayswater? Hmm, I suspect a photochop.
