Together they can make the combined-arms-gulls.
If seagulls fly over the sea, then what flies over the bay?
Bagels.
Captain Planet Gull: “Give me those chips and I’ll poop on you!”
You: “… don’t you mean ‘or’ you will poop on me, not ‘and’?”
Captain Planet Gull: …
You: …
I think a “landgull” would just be a pigeon
Nah, that’s an airgull. A landgull would be a chicken.
Nah, that’s a farmgull. A landfill would be an ostrich
No that’s where garbage goes, landgull would be a peacock
No, that’d be a fancygull. A landgull would be a rat.
No that would be a politigul. A landgull would be a gopher.
No, that’s a dirtgull. A landgull would be a kangaroo.
I never knew that. I thought it went from beagle to seagull and then on to eagle…
Wrong.
Seagulls imply the existence of Rivergulls, Lakegulls, Mountiangulls, Desertgulls, Forestgulls, Plaingulls, Valleygulls, Hillgulls, etc.
No no no, you’re all wrong. It goes Agles, Beagles, Seagulls, Deegles, Eagles, etc. We’ve proven the existence of 3 of these species already, but the search continues for these other mysterious creatures the certainly must exist. In this TED Talk, I will…
Archipelagulls
In light of the above, then, I hereby propose that squirrels get renamed to “treegulls.”
I’ve seen many seagulls in my life.
But I’ve never seen any of the others.
And that’s terrifying. Stay vigilant.
Don’t forget heartgulls. Everyone always forgets heart.
It’s all fun and games until the firegull nation attacks.
My brother and I discovered the new Gulliver…
If there are armadillos, where are the legadillos?
Given how much cuter a goldfish is than a silverfish, whatever a bronzefish is must be a absolutely disgusting.
And what about the Dillos who don’t want to be armed?
unarmadillos?
Stands to reason, yes. Maybe also navyadillos and airforcadillos.
also, spacegulls

Attention Bajoran workers…
thank you.
Bay-gull. Bagel.
Bay-hull; loves explosions.
Reminds me of a John Hodgman bit - we have ice hockey, field hockey, and air hockey, implying the existence of fire hockey.
I used to study animal management and there was a lecturer who wrote his uni thesis on “seagulls” and any time he heard someone call them seagulls he’d shout down the hallway “They’re herring gulls!”
Seagulls are not just herring gulls though. The term is used for any gulls people see near the sea. In the UK that’s herring, great black backed & and lesser black backed, black headed, common, and kittiwakes.
A birdwatching friend of mine has decided that if he ever discovers a new species, he’s naming it “seagull” regardless of where he finds it or what it looks like just to piss off all the ornithologists.
