I was thinking about getting a barn owl, then I learned that they won't kill squirrels as squirrels aren't nocturnal. Shitballs. Back to the drawing board in my game of neighborhood warfare.
Lady three houses down feeds fucking squirrels and I have the trees they live in...for now. I'm in a pretty good alliance with the resident fascist, and I don't want to piss her off by discharging firearms, which would be my normal method to deal with these tree rats.
I used to be a deadshot with a slingshot, took out squirrels at an apartment I use to live in with one. Maybe it's time to practice again, marbles are cheap.
I don't even want to talk about that fucking chipmunk.
Chipmunks are a colony critter... so if you see one, there's probably a bunch more. Chipmunks don't bother me much, since they're burrowers. Unless you try to lay down some outdoor tile/patio type stuff, in which case they're pure horror: they'll burrow underneath and upset your carefully leveled tile. Fucking squirrels will try to move into your eaves and have a tendency to munch on wires. Maybe you should take up taxidermy, then hold meetings with your stuffed squirrels.  You could always start feeding feral cats, who would then displace the squirrels. Of course then, you would have a feral cat problem... which means you have to attract foxes or coyotes, to take care of the feral cats.... Hmm. Yep, before you know it you're wondering how to deal with the out-of-control redneck problem who are eating the squirrels, chipmunks, feral cats, foxes and tiles. Also, I got the janitor/squirrel reference. Nicely played. Obviously, to deal with the redneck problem the only solution is to invite in the Old Ones: ...is the Lord of the Wood, even to... and the gifts of the men of Leng.... so from the wells of night to the gulfs of space, and from the gulfs of space to the wells of night, ever the praises of Great Cthulhu, of Tsathoggua, and of Him Who is not to be Named. Ever Their Praises, and abundance to the Black Goat of the Woods. Ia! Shub-Niggurath! The Goat with a Thousand Young! Yes....

If you're happy using firearms to deal with the squirrel problem why not get a decently powerful BB rifle? Kills squirrels with a lot less bang.

I hate this thread now.  Can't we have a separate death to cute furry critter and baby farm animal section? Like we did with politics?

Cute? Squirrels are rats with bushy tails. Don't worry, I'm only after the squirrels and chipmunk. The bunnies and deer are cool by me. Until I get my garden set up....
And yeah, I keep forgetting about the pellet gun option.

Yes, I read it. Draegan must be the drunk one.
Squirrels are cute. Rats are cute. Foxes are cute. Bunnies are cute. They're all pains in the arses when it comes to gardens, rubbish bins and the walls of your home. I am simply wishing you'd murder them silently, away from my eyes! I'm not saying you HAVE to, I'm just WISHING it!

They do now, yes. Since they can't get net neutrality axed they decided insane caps are the best way to make an extra few hundred off you a year.

Fucking universities are fucking useless. Fuckers.
I was just looking up my unofficial transcript for some job applications I'm doing and I found out that I'd actually been offered a scholarship this year... When, I don't know because they didn't fucking provide me with any indication that I was successful. This is after a history of uni fucking me about with various things and I'm not amused. I hope it's not too late or some crap because that would seriously piss me off and I could really use the money. (I'm fucking flying to New York in a week for a wedding and don't have enough money to pay off my CC atm, let alone have enough to properly enjoy the trip...)
Gah gah gah.

Which is more ridiculous?
a) "Sir Mick Jagger" b) "You ate my shepherd's pie, didn't you?" c) "God told me to circumcise myself."

Hey, if someone wants to believe that a voice in their head is telling them to perform a circumcision on themselves I think they should listen to that voice.

So.... GoDaddy used to outsource their customer support to 1996? I'm not sure that's the most efficient use for a time machine, but hey... you would only have to pay '96 wages!
