    I love how is humor is often some pun, references something and sometimes is outright absurd.

    And everytime I wonder which one it is.

    Can you imagine how terrifying the other side of that door would sound until you actually confirmed that though it is unlikely yes there are 100 live ducks crammed behind that door?

    I don’t think your brain could make the abstract leap before you open the door that those are sounds from a jumble of ducks, it would likely sound to someone not trained as a homicide detective like some kind of demon hellspawn with a million skittering legs, like a monsterous radioactive millipede ready to bust down the door and eat you alive.

    Being a detective on the farside of the law ain’t easy.

      Oh wow, can you imagine… entering an apartment and in a closet there’s a 100 ducks rummaging about. I’d probably be a lovely blend of concerned and curious.

      But of course, I’m no homicide detective.

        Me neither I would not be able to put that many ducks in a row without getting totally mixed up, maybe 5 or 10 but not that many.
