Humm. Think I would be more at risk of disease from San Francisco lifestyle practices than from Kissing chickens.

No, I don’t practice either. (I did kiss a few “chicks” growing up however!)

CDC comes out with another chickensh-t advisory .... now you see why no one has ever accused the CDC of being smart or scientific.

When I see government advise not to kiss or hug a chicken or put gas in a plastic bag, i chuckle. Then I realize that they issue that warning because people are doing it. What happened to common sense?

Reminded me of the chicken kissing scene in SMILE”(1975) with Bruce Dern.

Never saw it but I'm not quite sure I should. Thanks, though.

Many eons ago when I was just a pup, we used to hang a bleach bottle full of gas on our lawnmower handle a go around the neighborhood mowing lawns.

The old bleach bottles were quite heavy duty and made a good one gal. gas can.

And while you’re at it, try not to stick your goods into a garbage disposal while it’s running.

But I can kiss my iguana and let the kids play with fruit bats, right?

I saw that gal.. she would have behaved differently if that was a barnyard bird.

That chicken looked like it was on something, so docile.

Oh vell, to each their own. She probably had chicken legs as a kid.

To be really safe, also avoid kissing salmon.

I looked up "chick" with the (slang) meaning of "girl" or "young woman" in the Oxford English Dictionary. The earliest example they have is the 1927 novel Elmer Gantry by Sinclair Lewis. Next example after that was from 1957.

Ok. I won’t kiss chickens.

But is it still ok to lick toads?

“Chick”—surfer and racing movies and stuff.

Yah, stuff from the 50s and 60s. (I date myself, but not in the 2020s sense....)
