Birds, except when broiled and in the society of a cold bottle, bored him stiff.
In P.G. Wodehouse's book "My Man Jeeves," the narrator expresses a rather unenthusiastic view of birds. He finds them rather dull and uninteresting, except in the context of being served as food, particularly when enjoyed with a cold drink. This reflects a humorous take on his character's priorities and preferences.
This quote highlights a whimsical disdain for nature's creatures, suggesting that the only time he finds them appealing is when they serve a practical purpose in his dining experience. It cleverly underlines his personality, revealing a fondness for leisure and indulgence over the natural world.
