I have a bird feeder. It's a very successful squirrel feeder.

    Ever try spicy birdseed? Worked for me: squirrels won't touch it, birds don't notice.

    we've just been filling ours with the black sunflower seeds instead of the mixed stuff. Instead of raking out everything to get to the sunflower seeds, they just hang out and eat. Plus, me and the dogs have a lot of fun running them off. It's turned in to quite a game. Some of the smarter squirrels notice me spotting them through the windows and haul ass before I can make it to the door. Sometimes they'll have a lookout posted while them buggers are hitting all three feeders at once. Unfortunately, we haven't been seeing nearly as many here lately tho. We just went through hurricane Isaias and I'm afraid it hurt our squirrel population. We've got trees down everywhere :(

    I’d be a GIGANTIC… invisible bird I’d spend all day flying at top speed… into sliding glass doors. People would hear a big THUMP… and they’d say: 'Ohh!! A BIRD… must have hit the sliding… glass door!' Then, they would… run off and look, and… what?! No bird!

    I was walking down the street the other day and a mother with a little boy holding her hand came in the opposite direction. The little boy pointed at me and said to his mother "look mommy, it's an old man!" I'm fucking 59, I'm not Christopher Walken.

    Gosh, I wish I had this! Or at least a yard of some sort. Or at least a home of any kind...

    Can I skip to staring at the bird feeder? That sounds nice.

    I think the crypt keeper Christopher Walken gets a pass

    Yes, except I'll never be as cool as Christopher Walken.

    You gonna just fly over this bird-feeder, for which I have procured premium seeds in a gently, hand mixes quantity?

    Man starts gyrating at the hips.

    Laurence Fishbourne and colleagues shout and celebrate rather enthusiastically.
