[insert nuts pun here]

Today is Squirrel Appreciation Day. Can you believe this shit?


It's an annual holiday started in 2001 by a "wildlife rehabilitator" in North Carolina named Christy Hargrove. Eight years later, and a reported 87 million Americans celebrate the day by stuffing their cheeks full of peanuts and running around on rooftops. Or something.

I don't know. The whole thing is ridiculous. Squirrels are among the vilest creatures nature ever created. They are bloodthirsty, and they are cute, and they are among us. If I appreciate anything about squirrels, it is their ability to kill humans.

Fucking squirrels.

Christy Hargrove and the rest of you are DOOMED, and there you are, celebrating your destroyers.

Hotcha! Hank
