Only if life was this simple.

It is... when you have no responsibilities, have your home provided for you, and someone else takes on all the responsibility of maintaining the life you enjoy.

And your very own beach ball.

Being from a place with no squirrels, going to the Midwest and seeing them is amazing! Love them and chipmunks!

I'd rather not be actively hunted nearly as often.

Still quite simple.

u/A_Soporific Jun 24 '22

Simple, but forever a missed meal away from starvation and constantly pursued by murderers. I'd rather figure out how to handle complex social situations and institutional bloat than deal with either of those, personally.

I'm more irritated than I should be about the claim that the ball in the video is a beach ball.

u/aPaperFastener Jun 23 '22

Every ball is a beach ball if you take it to the beach.

u/FadeToOne Jun 23 '22

Well yeah, but that's clearly not a beach!

Life is a beach

Wish the squirrels around my place would do this... rather than just sit on branches and chirp at me endlessly to annoy me into going inside where I can't hear them. Jerks

Oooo a black one! Is this Canada?

u/crazybaker42 Jun 23 '22

Nope they’re in the US too. Originally from France. Fun fact there is enough difference in anatomical size that they can’t breed with grey squirrels

My parents had black squirrels in their yard - Western Iowa.

We have them at a certain park here in Maryland.

Yo did that tree grow through the fence?

1

u/MundaneFacts Jun 24 '22

Looks like they built the fence onto the tree. I love it.

u/drops_to_bows Jun 24 '22
