i like saying squirrel. like...i squirreled some money away...
or ...he's acting real squirrely lately. or he's a squirrely guy. for whatever reason, saying 'squirrel' makes me smile.

the squirrel is an interesting animal. i'm a big fan. they are unique in that when people see them, they think...aww..how cute. but if confronted with the opportunity to pet the squirrel...i think almost everyone would pass it up. if a squirrel were loose in your house..you would probably freak out...

its also quite hard to spell. i had to google it to make sure i didnt make a thread about squirrel´s and spell squirrel wrong....lol

    A squirrel got in through the ceiling at my last job and made a nest in the tissue box :) Of course no one wanted to touch the squirrel, so animal control had to come and take him out (sound asleep in his little nest). Another squirrel got into the attic at work and must have died behind the wall :eek: We could tell by the smell. Not nice at all. And my former supervisor once called out of work because 2 squirrels had gotten into her house and she was afraid they would attack her cats :eek: There was a whole squirrel theme going on at that job.

    What I don't like is how Americans can't actually say "Squirrel", opting instead for "Squirl".

    Squirrel's are the devil's spawn and should be eliminated from earth. I hate squirrel's as I'm sure you can tell.

    I use it far too often. Normally to describe put-downs.

    i once saw the black squirrels (like someone mentioned...yes they exist) when on a golf course in virginia. you could feed some of them too...
    it was like i was on another planet for a second...

    I often watch the family of squirrels playing, scurrying, eating and quarreling outside my house. There is a bird feeder they like to raid.

    ive always thought the word HOOF was fun, more a breathing technique than a word.

    I have a big yard with lots of trees so there are plenty of squirrels. There are also all kinds of birds and I like to watch them. Squirrels get on the bird feeder and I have to shoo them off or they eat up all the seed. By now my dog knows the the words "stupid squirrel" and runs outside with me when I see one on the feeder. He has learned to look out the door and watch for squirrels. I don't think he could ever run as fast as they do. :)

    i genuinely cant say BURGLARY .. just cant do it.
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
