A duck is a wholly wonderful creature. They also say "quack"

What the iPhone autocorrects "fuck" to, when never do you ever actually mean to type "duck".

Leaving early or hiding, sometimes in order to avoid a certain person or a group of people.

To not let things get to you, and allow yourself not to be bothered or annoyed by actions or the current situation you may be in or by what other are doing to manipulate you into bitterness. When everything is building up. i.e. The saying when it rains it pours seems to make sense in describing life at times and acting like a duck is better, because ducks do not run and hide when it rains, they do not try to cover themselves up and avoid it, they do not attack the rain or try fighting it off they simply endure it with pride and dignity like it was not even there in fact they seem to enjoy it while it lasts, and above all do not seem to be bothered by the rain. Hence acting like a duck or to act like a duck is better than retaliating and making the situation worse or make everyone think its better to attack and fight rather than be dignified and work it out.

A duck which lives in the center of the earth that will one day bring about the apocalypse unless mankind either keeps feeding him bread or uses water to cool down the earth's core.

The act of ignoring or hiding, particularly from a person or place.

What floats on water and weighs the same as a witch.
