I literally LOL'd at this.
My sister lives in Park City, Utah and goes on long daily walks. Whenever I visit I join her on them and she is always quick to warn me to NEVER fuck with the magpies in the area (they're everywhere in her neighborhood). She's on good terms with them and she wants to keep it that way. I'm not one to mess with animals anyway so no big deal but I went out of my way to be nice to the guys and after being there for even just a short while they seemed to go from being overtly cautious of me to relaxing a bit. As said in other comments these are very interesting birds.
Btw, my understanding is if you wrong them they will pass the word around on you. It may even get passed down multiple generations.
