🖤 The story of why you don't menace crows. Even if the people you're doing it to try to mess with are extremely annoying and lovey-dovey. Or, if you're single and looking, here's why you should definitely throw some rocks at some crows. It might just lead to you meeting the love of your life... sixteen years later, after several trips through an active war zone. This is the unlikely love story of Pang Noo and Uhn Hah.
