6 Foot Invisible Rabbit Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Today I was waklking home from work and a brown squirrel ran up to me, about 10 feet away, and stood on its hind legs in what looked like a martial art stance. I thought what the hell and I felt a bit whimsical so I got into a similar stance. The beast then ran straight at me and I ran towards it and then it suddenly swerved to on coming traffic. Now in most cases that would make Squirrel Road Pizza but not in this case. A woman driving a jeep swerved to miss the squirrel, hit th curb and pretty much launched the jeep right at me. Obviously the Jeep didn't hit me or I wouldn't be typing this right now and I would want to see more trees planted by the road side. While the woman was distraught over her single car accident I looked for the squirrel. The squirrel was on the oppoite side of the street, on its hind legs again, and giving me what looked like the squirrel equivelent of the bird. It then scampered off into the bushes of a nearby house. I laughed and continued walking home. Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosbjerg Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 the wierdest moment was when a pigeon landed on my hand and wouldn't leave .. I tried smacking it but it just kept sitting there, and I was waving my hand quite violently at the end .. bloody bird! Fortune favors the bald.

6 Foot Invisible Rabbit Posted April 7, 2005 Author Share Posted April 7, 2005 A few years ago I was walking through campus to where I worked at the time. From the commons building to the publications building, which is a good mile apart, a single raven followed me. Went from light pole to light pole, looking at me and following me. It almost freaked me out. Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosbjerg Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 well if you believe in old Norse mythology that was either Hugin or Munin that followed you .. seems Odin (or Wooden in English) has a personal interest in you! but then Ravens are actually quite intelligent birds .. perhaps it was simply bored!

6 Foot Invisible Rabbit Posted April 7, 2005 Author Share Posted April 7, 2005 Well, since then the raven population sky rocketed into astronomical numbers. If you walk through campus you better bring an umbrella and its not for the rain. Harvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosbjerg Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 definitely bored then .. would explain the population boom! Fortune favors the bald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveThaiBinh Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 I was attacked by a squadron of ****roaches. Well, by squadron I mean four, but simultanously from four different directions. It sure as hell looked co-ordinated. I hate ****roaches. Every other small animal runs AWAY from you if you approach, but they run straight AT you. And they FLY! They keep it pretty quiet, until suddenly one day something lands on your FACE! EDIT: And the absurd censor wins again. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

draakh_kimera Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 When I was a little kid, like 5 or so, I was in a zoo in Thailand. The monkey cages there didn't have roofs, and all of a sudden a friggin' gibbon monkey lands on my shoulder while I walk by, I fall over, and the monkey runs away. That was kinda weird.

OrganisedChaos Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Animals are way smarter than you think, and they take the piss out of you. I noticed a wasp flying around the windows. So I pulled thge blinds down to trap it. and to make sure the wasp knew this i said "you wont be getting put of that will you?" The thing then crawled under the blind and flew right in my face, as if to say "i proved you wrong didnt I?". Then the bloody thing turned around and flew back under the blind! That was freaky. like it understood what I was saying and was taking the piss out of me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Phantom Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 Oh, that happens all the time to me... I've just starting talking to animals as though they can understand me, because it is a proven fact that most animals can get the basic gist of what you're saying by the tone you say it in. However, the longer they've been around humans, the more they'll understand it... No, I don't live in a basement! Stop laughing at me! I'm not paranoid!

C-ockroaches can survive just about anything, from radiation, to raid, to the sole of your foot. Plus, they're friggin fast! Now, picture the huge 2-5 inch THINGS they have in Brazil... Can you imagine waking up every morning to those things??? Holy cow, that's like a horror movie!

mkreku Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 One morning, my father woke up real early to go to work, and he tried to heat up water to make tea. Just as he was about to put the tea bag into the boiling water, he accidently dropped the bag on the floor. Immediately, one of our dogs ran up to it and swallowed it, and my father started cursing for like.. ten minutes straight. That was a very weird moment.

Kaftan Barlast Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I was at my parents place and went out to take Leo the dog for a walk. The neighbours were out in their garden. Leo sniffs their low hedge and the woman starts to chat with me about cats and whatever. Then her face turns sour. And as I look down Leo is in the process of laying a huge turd, practicly by her feet. Then comes one of those moments of horrendously awkward silence.
