It's good advice.

Be sober when you're paying for hooters.

The great thing about this headline is I have no idea which of four options is on drugs.

Ya, cops will say things like that while on drugs

Who's on drugs, the police, the buyer, the stranger or the owl?

Buying a goat while drunk and high is probably not even illegal in many places. This advice really comes down to owls being wise but not streetwise. Telling someone to cut down on their drugs is good wise advice but telling them while they are off their rocks will just ruin their vibes, better to wait until they are coming down and feel like crap. I advice buying a parrot while tripping balls, now that's fun.

For no particular reason I had thought the owl would be more expensive than that.

Just say no to hooters.

You can't tell me what to do.

You may however make polite recommendations.

Selling a bird for less than a few thousand is definitely not worth it. You don't want to fuck with wild birds in the US. The Migratory Bird Treaty Act is one of the oldest federal conservation laws in the US and it's pretty brutal. Just picking up a feather off the ground can lead to fines. They probably won't go after you unless it's something especially egregious like a bald eagle feather. But selling an owl caught in the US without a permit is definitely enough to get the attention of the Feds.

Wonder wise someone even considered this? When you're high you don't give a hoot what you do.

This headline is fantastic.

That seems like a good way to end up really scratched up from owl talons

Truth is, owls make terrible pets. They apparently get SO attached to their owner that whenever they're left alone, they'll start destroying shit, plucking out their own feathers, etc. So yeah, they're cute as all day, but do an owl a favor...

This is a very important and highly overlooked issue for everyone in the State of Arizona. Especially those in the SCA.

Looks like a great origin story, I'm in. Do you send them owls by mail?

They also need a LOT of room to fly around, and can't really be housebroken. I'd totally keep an owl box in my yard if I had one, but that's about as close a relationship as I would want. Not everything "cute" has to be a pet!

I’ve never heard of anything good coming from a drug induced owl purchase.

That’s very specific (and good) advice.

I genuinely wish police would make these posts more often. They deal with crazy shit all the time. Let us in on some of this fun.

Ok good, so the good old tradition of buying owls from people known to you while on drugs can be kept alive.
