Things I've Learned Playing Angry Birds

I recently started playing Angry Birds.  That's right, just "Angry Birds".  Not Angry Birds Space or Angry Birds Star Wars, or Angry Birds Battle of the Somme.  The game is now so big Microsoft is using it in their ads in a desperate bid to seem cool, but I'm just starting.  So I'm probably one of the few people left who can make some fresh observations about it.  Here's what I've learned:

• Birds don't have wings
• Things probably turned out fine for those first two of the Three Little Pigs after the wolf blew their house down, since pigs have a great ability to survive building materials falling on them.
• Eggs are potentially explosive.
• If you drop an object from something flying at high speed, it will just fall straight down.
• Cardinals aren't dangerous, but canaries can penetrate several layers of wood.
• Bluebirds can reproduce astonishingly quickly.  Just stay the hell away from starlings.
• There's really not a lot to do in Finland, other than designing hundreds of Angry Birds levels.  That and taking whatever drug made them think that flinging flightless birds at legless pigs would make a good game.
• Getting hit in the head will give you black eyes.
• The biggest challenge for Artificial Intelligence is not understanding natural language or binocular vision.  It’s figuring out when a stack of broken boards has finished collapsing and it should just go ahead and end the level.
