Personality question, not like you think

The question is:

Why is a bird better than a tiger?

My first reaction is why would anyone even ask a question like that which has no real answer? Why would a bird be better than a tiger or vice versa? What is better supposed to mean?

I'll read on and see how I fare . . .

Come on, DC, it has to be a rhetorical question. Like "what is the sound of one hand clapping" or "if a tree falls in the forest and smashes both the bird and the tiger, and no one saw it, did it make a sound?" Answer these questions, and you have achieved enlightenment.

To answer the OP's question, I need more info. What type of bird can I be? I want to be the bird with impeccable timing. You know the one, wash the car and not a minute later, he swings by to leave his mark.

You cannot get away with it unless you are bird, I found out.
 
The question is to reach to the innermost part of your thought process and the 'condition' in which your soul is now (okay, that's a bit deep).

Here is how my hubby answered: The bird is better because it has freedom to travel.

Here is how I answered the question: The bird is NOT better, the bird is prey for other creatures in the wild and the tiger is not. While the bird has the freedom of flight and travel, it does not have the freedom to just live without worry of being eaten, the tiger does. The tiger worries on what to eat.

My point of view was the freedom of living without worries, without thought as to my hubby sought the freedom to go anywhere. Two different point of views, both valid, but it shows you the personality of the individual. How we define things. How we define freedom.

Jack - you kill me.

Anhar - you really kill me.
 
This is very open ended, but my first thought about the tiger was how it is relentlessly hunted by poachers and most species are on the endangered list. I'd rather be hunted by other animals then humans!

Good response though!

My first instinct was to say because it can fly. I've always wanted the ability to fly ever since I was a kid. And not in the pilot kind of way, more like the superman kind of way. :) lol.

This was my answer to. The other birds always make fun of me because their wings are good for more than just slapping other Penguins with. :(
 
The bird has freedom to travel the world and can find food anywhere, whereas a tiger is limited to living wherever he can find animals to kill.
 
That would be one sore momma bird after the mating ritual:Drogar-Dum(DBG):

I would be a Tiger with a pilolt's license and a passport.

That's what is best. And an iphone.

I would text tiger posts on dvxuser like Grrrrrrrr and Grrrrrrrr

This is pretty deep because I am dealing with freedom issues right now and sure enough first thought was basic: "Because a bird can fly." And when the thought came to mind it was almost like it was an objective answer even though it's quite subjective. I didn't even think about the strength of the Tiger nor the odds of either being eaten. Simply a bird could fly and that made all the difference.

Nat - it's all in how you 'perceive' a thing, no right or wrong answers.

Terry - you really, really, really kill me.

I know. I was just musing on the idea of freedom = flight and that I got the most basic answer from the question without even really thinking.

Interesting stuff.

I thought there was going to be a chart of answers that basically defines your personality based on that chart. Seems it is even more open-ended than I imagined. :)
