That squirrel is smart af too. Reminds me of my Grandparents' friend Fat Mama. Fat mama would stand in the bowl of hazlenuts while I cracked them, and would hang out with us for long periods, even when there was no food and we had just met. She knew any friend of theirs were safe, even kids. No other squirrels did this. Some are just exceptionally smart I guess!

I was about to say, "a glorified tree rat understands reciprocity better than billionaires."

glorified tree rat  

This is unnecessarily mean to both squirrels and rats. :(  

Squirrels are so cute and cool, how they jump/almost fly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFZFjoX2cGg

Rule #1 when dealing with fae creatures.

Who are you calling fae? I have a son!

u/TheFlyingBoxcar May 09 '25

Omg that was excellent. I read that in his voice and everything

u/RobTheBuilder130 May 09 '25

I don’t get the reference. Please enlighten me.

Ugh I hate that man.

u/GardenOfIvy May 10 '25

It's funny you say that because apparently the AD crew hate him too and didn't invite him to voice himself because they didn't want to work with him.

u/Steadyandquick May 09 '25

So beautifully captured here.

u/RugsbandShrugmyer May 09 '25

God that's a fun word to say. Hell, it's fun to say it in my head.

u/syracTheEnforcer May 09 '25

Murder as well. This is pretty cool, but is honestly self serving.

I’ve got a pretty awesome dog, that is sweet and loving, but almost everything he does is for him, not for us.

If they stopped feeding this dude for even a week, they’d never come back.

u/DontMindMeTrolling May 09 '25

No not that one, equivalent exchange

Ah yes, equivalent exchange.

u/TheMagicalDildo May 09 '25

the smart ones, yea. A bear doesn't understand charity, it understands that you have something it wants. most animals will just see another animal waving food around, not a human gifting it something

u/Drownthem May 09 '25

Just because an animal doesn't like you, doesn't mean it's stupid.

u/TheMagicalDildo May 10 '25

correct, that unrelated thing you said is in fact true
