You know that scene about thirty seconds in to the Drunk Squirrel clip, where it is holding on to the tree for dear life because the world is spinning too fast?
That squirrel and I are going to have something in common tonight.

After some of the other contentious posts this afternoon, I happily nominate this as best find of the day.

Laugh all you want at that drunk squirrel, but it takes gumption to react to the spins by spinning around in the opposite direction. Chances are that, in his position, I'd have simply held my head until I puked.

I kind of want Pope Squirrel to tell me how I should live my life!
Metroid Baby and I came up with a concept known as TIME SQUIRREL. As far as I know, he travels through time, flashes before your eyes, and sometimes kills you...with time. It is also customary to exchange Time Squirrels on the day before Valentine's Day.

See, climbing in a spiral is what squirrels do when they're freaked out. I suspect he's just trying to get someplace safe — you know, like we are when we burrow our heads in between the sofa cushions and groan.

Squirrels are just rats with good PR.
As a side note, squirrelled is credited as the longest one syllable word in British English. If we had Ceceo English, we could have the longer word Thquirrelled. Sorry, I'm in a bit of an absurdist mood.

I love the description of Twirl a Squirrel:
"Effective and fun to watch!"

I saw an interview with notorious Russian porn star. Her name was Nakita something or other but she looked like Natasha from Rocky and Bullwinkle and she was bemused about people always wanting her to say "moose and squirrel".

Maudlin, when I first heard that story a couple years ago I had to pull over my car because I was laughing so hard.

Frasermoo, apparently there was a competing chant at the other end of the stadium.
I guess people have to do something to stay amused during soccer games.
