This is BS.

I went out to check on my garden. I have a couple strawberry plants, and I keep them covered with netting to keep the birds out. The netting was pulled back, and I assumed my kid had been hunting for berries and forgot to cover the plants. So I reached in to pull the netting out from under all the foliage, and I came up with a motherfucking dead chipmunk that had strangled himself in the netting while trying to pillage my garden.

WHY ME?!!?

Awww, I love chipmunks. Poor guy. That sucks about your strawberries though.

[nomad100]

Sorry about that.

I can send you one of the dozen or so that are filling my yard with holes and taunting my dog by running faster than she can.

I am sorry about the chipmunk and your hand. I would have screamed and then screamed some more.

I have a strawberry plant and never have any strawberries. You might think it is the birds that get them but you would be wrong it is the 65lb monster dog that lives with me that gets them all.

He was probably cute when he was alive, but the deadness negates the cute.

I just stepped on a flattened, dead (very dead, like has been baking in the sun for weeks and crispy) giant fucking RAT in my apartment parking lot like an hour ago. Samesies?

That is truly gross.

So.
I went out and lifted all the netting out and prepared to drop it in the nice brown bag I had prepared for him... and his little legs started flailing. Turns out, he's not dead. He's too tangled to try to cut out of there. Now what?

Lol, our lab is our worst offender, too!

[BlackCanary]

Sorry about your strawberries.

And, poor little chipmunk.

[stephm0188]

He's freeeeee! I cut around him and managed to use a small tiny pair of scissors to free him. He ran off and hid in a pile of rocks, so hopefully he makes it.

[sawyerthedestroyer]

Hopefully he learned his lesson and will tell all the other chipmunks to stay the fuck away from your berries.

[snickers]

Oh that sucks so bad
