You are still you, you can speak human language that you already know, and you know how to speak duck.

You have to learn how to be a duck. This means you gotta learn how to fly, hunt food, etc.

I’d walk to a lemonade stand to see if they had any grapes.

[–] spicytuna62@lemmy.world 36 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Then (and I cannot emphasize this enough) I'd waddle away.

Till the very next day?

[–] Therealmglitch@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

It's been 84 years...

[–] BustinJiber@lemmy.world 51 points 2 years ago

Put on a blue cap, blue nautical shirt; but, and I can't stress this enough, NO PANTS.

FLY!

Damn, 3 hour old post and no one said FLY!? Ya’all need to be ducks more often…

Autocorrect has its moment of glory!

Open a wine bottle, maybe? Put the corkscrew to use.

[–] Therealmglitch@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"Bro, you see that duck over there? It stole my wine bottle"

[–] Susaga@ttrpg.network 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"Do you want it back? It's already open now." "You know what? I think I'll pass."

Came here to quack, was not disappointed

[–] loopy@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Depends, am I a horse-sized duck? I might have some people to fight

Peace was never an option.

Head downtown & act cute until a college girl adopts me as her pet. Duck-nuzzle some boobies.

Check if my quack has an echo

[–] souperk@reddthat.com 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would learn to fly and then fly to one of those parks where secret service agents meet. Become a spy and sell the intelligence I gather.

I find someone with a corkscrew fetish.

[–] livus@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago
  • explain the whole thing to my partner and ask them to protect me.

Failing that:

  • carefully waddle to where I know people feed ducks

  • practice flying and copy other ducks

  • ask other ducks for tips

Pretty sure I'd drop my phone.

[–] CrimeDad@lemmy.crimedad.work 7 points 2 years ago

Betray my country.

[–] ExLisper@linux.community 7 points 2 years ago

Cover my feathers in wax like substance from my ass glands. Once I'm all waxed up I go for a swim.

[–] SuiXi3D@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago

I’d float around in the water as my body would now resemble a boat.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

Fly into the sunset.

Sunset

[–] Wes_Dev@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

I would have an exploding corkscrew penis. I'll find ways to entertain myself.

[–] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably contacting some media outlets to try and monetize my talking-duck status, and wondering if if my life expectancy is on par with duck or human.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Do you want to end up being dissected in a government lab? Because that's how you get dissected in a government lab.

[–] Damaskox@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Probably make a poo on the floor.
Either mine or in the hallway (if I know how to open the door).

I start wondering if I'm ugly.

[–] Candelestine@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Probably open up my phone and pull up youtube to watch some duck documentaries. I don't even know what I'm supposed to be eating or what things out there are usually wanting to eat me.

Immediately make a joke about quacking up.
