Squirrels love sperm, hate America:

I posted this on twitter and got only two responses (one of which was simply ”Huh?”) so I thought I’d post it over here to increase the number of people who think I’m not funny.

Comment of the day: “Huh? ” ~ Jane

UPDATED:  Apparently the squirrels are working for Obama in order to destroy all the old American flags to make way for the new ones.  Awesome.

I’ve heard that you have to touch the ground if a squirrel burns the flag.

Or something like that.

Oh, those squirrels, you really want to watch them. They gather in special squirrel bars in the forests to decide whose handbag to snatch next. And they ride mobylettes (which is the French for small girly scooters).

My French man has been telling me to watch out for them for fifteen years. It does not surprise me at all to hear they are burning your flag now. They are insatiable.

Perhaps they’re recreating the flag in their little sperm den.

Just like a typical jingoistic squirrel. Always wrapping himself in the flag when he’s really going for your nuts.

If it’s any consolation, when I saw you post this on twitter I said, “Heh.”

I now see my error, but keep your eye on Nebraska, because sometimes my conspiracy theories are psychic.

You are clearly racist against squirrels. I don’t know what your beef is but I’ve known some very nice squirrels and I can personally vouch that they’re not all terrorists.

Just last week I was trapped in a dungeon while my stepmother and two stepsisters went to a ball, and if it wasn’t for my little squirrel friends who helped break me out and also sewed a lovely ball gown for me, who knows where I’d be right now.

It’s just not right. I think you owe them a big apology.

When I was in college in St. Paul, Minn., there was a black squirrel who lived on campus. He was the only black squirrel I’d ever seen, but evidently they are more common down south. He was the talk of campus in those days.

Somehow that random story seemed relevant to this post.
