Two of my coworkers got carried away and kept bringing in more and more ducks, creating “The Great Rubber Duck War”

In my city, we have strict parking designated zones and you have to take a photo. If it’s left on the sidewalk or road, it won’t let you end the trip, implies it will fine you, plus they’ll send someone to move it.
