  • A nine-year-old British boy has won a European championship with his uncanny impression of a seagull.
    The EC Gull Screeching competition is held every year in an attempt to change the image of seagulls, which some people see as a nuisance.
    Cooper, from Chesterfield in Derbyshire, travelled to the Belgian coastal town of De Panne to compete.

    Okay STORY TIME!
    I just remembered that I used to make this really loud seagull noise at school in like grade 7-8 (20+ years ago). I haven't thought about it in over a decade.
    But the messed up thing is that almost immediately after having that memory return to me, I turned the TV on and Cobert was doing a bit where this kid, dressed as a seagull, made the news in a town across the pond for making the exact same seagull noise.
    I've never seen anyone else do it, ever, I didn't even know anyone else could do it. Then this?!
    I'm telling you right now.. I second guessed finishing the joint I was smoking at the time. (I did anyways)
