Acorn tree.

I upvoted for the false friend explanation. Thank you for tickling my language nerd gland in such a pleasing way.

When a tree sneezes!

Canadian here. Yea bud you triggered me there eh. That's fer sure a maple. I just helped my buddy tap a few maple trees couple weeks back.

Anyone else's OCD marveling in the almost squareness of the drop whilst also trying to figure the floor vrs the drop?

I, too, always have difficulties calling these thingies flowers! Blossom is actually the prefered term for trees I believe? Some of them just don't look flowery at all.

What caused the rapid fall? Wind?

Growing up we called them helicopters because of the way they'd spin while falling. As an adult I'm more likely to think "welp, the tree shit all over the driveway again." Lol

Do you have a neighbor named Aureliano? If so, check on his family

Morning after pill should always be an option. What if one of those had turned into another tree? Think about it! This tree is just being responsible by not bringing another tree into the world whe they are not ready for the commitment.

Me: Acorn tree? So an oak tree? Zooms in those aren't oak leaves.

OP: okay so I just found out how wrong I was.

Those are, pardon my french: kittens.

EDIT: they are german kittens auch! Unglaublich (^_^)

Trees are great!
