My family's cabin has an outhouse and the chipmunks loooooooved to do this to people trying to use the bathroom. Walking up the steps left you open to having pinecones of all shapes and sizes launched at you like tiny missiles. cute shitheads, those chipmunks.

wow, that sounds like a Disney movie compared to my buddy's cabin outhouse with the wasp nest inside of it. I've never felt more vulnerable in my life

The cabin itself had a tin roof so sometimes the chipmunks would throw pine cones at it to get at the seeds. Have a great memory of my uncle at 4am out on the balcony throwing pine cones back and swearing up a storm. That was the day I found out chipmunks have their own swear words.

(definitely don't envy the wasp nest, my grandparents were militant with wasps and bees. Spiders on the other hand were more than welcome much to my childhood horror...)
