I’m a DUCT and I used to find it offensive too. My family The DUCTS campaigned for years to change it. Our children were teased being called things like sticky knickers we are glad it’s the ducks problem now hee hee

This is all for the common greater good. Ducks are evil and plotting TOTAL WORLD DOMINATION, and should therefor be “duck taped”. If you see a duck, tape it. You’ll be saving the world.

Viva la Resistance!!!

Well, that’s the problem to begin with. Ducks drink too much. Save the ducks, duck tape them!

Ducktales theme song

Life is like a hurricane
Here in Duckburg
Race cars, lasers, aeroplanes
It’s a duck-blur
Might solve a mystery
Or rewrite history

CHORUS:
DuckTales (oooh ooooh)
Every day they’re out there making
DuckTales (oooh ooooh)
Tales of daring do bad and good
LuckTales (oooh ooooh)

When it seems they’re heading for the
Final curtain
Cool deduction never fails
That’s for certain
The worst of messes
Become successes

CHORUS

D-D-D-Danger! Watch behind you
There’s a stranger out to find you
What to do? Just grab on to some DuckTales

CHORUS

D-D-D-Danger! Watch behind you
There’s a stranger out to find you
What to do? Just grab on to some …

CHORUS (Twice)

Not pony tales or cotton tales, no
DuckTales (ooh ooooh)

I still say ducks should be taped.

This about the most notorious ducks in history.

The villainous inhabitants of Sydney-Town were popularly called Sydney Ducks or Sydney Coves, but more often the former. It was a common saying in early San Francisco, whenever a particularly atrocious crime was committed, that “the Sydney Ducks are cackling in the pond.” Unquestionably, these foreign felons gave San Francisco’s underworld its initial flavor; they were pioneers in the viciousness and depravity for which the Barbary Coast became famous, and the echo of their unholy cackling was not stilled for more than half a century. By the time they began swarming into the city in force, many of the tents and shanties of the Chilenos had been replaced by flimsy wooden and brick buildings, wherein the more commercial spirits among the Sydney Ducks opened lodging-houses, dance-halls, groggeries, and taverns. Their public houses bore such fanciful and typically English and Scotch names as the Magpie, the Bobby Burns, the Tam O’Shanter, the Noggin of Ale, the Hilo Johnny, the Bird-in-Hand, the Bay of Biscay, and the Jolly Waterman, but all were described by a contemporary journalist as “hives of dronish criminals, shabby little dens with rough, hangdog fellows hanging about the doorways.” Drunkenness, robbery, and all manner of strife and lewdness went on in these places.
