Thanks. It just doesn't make very much sense to me. I figured it would be more demeaning to call them "#####"… then again they'd probably like that.

a dumb, ugly, bobble-headed, scum-diving, bottom-feeding, larvae-eating, tadpole-tasting, nasty imposter who thinks he's a fast, high-flying duck. He's not even edible because the meat stinks like a dead fish. All they're good for is shooting practice, but are usually considered a waste of a good shotgun shell - unless you need to clear the water to make room for decent and attractive birds.
