Jumpah 0 #1 June 21, 2008 I gave my friend a new nickname a couple weeks ago, and its starting to stick. He's the kind of guy who knows one doesn't pick their own nickname, so he's not saying we shouldn't use it, but its not one that he'd prefer (which makes it even better for us). So a few days after the naming I wake up to the sound of a squirrel running on my camper's roof right above my bed at 5:15am. I bang on the ceiling, it runs off and comes right back. Can't sleep so I get coffee and go on with my day. Next few days it happens each morning, right around 5 or so. I finally decide to go and look 'cause now I'm thinking they are nesting in the AC. I'm on the deck, on a chair, looking at the ceiling...there are empty seeds everywhere. I see a squirrel there eating and looking at me. He's got a bunch of plastic baggies with stuff in them. "He's got f***ing BAGS of food...what the f***?". I say to myself...its early. Well, my friend put a half dozen bags full of sunflower seeds on my roof that past weekend and just waited. He figured I'd have all sorts of critters. My friend...that was evil and well played... The seeds have been put on another camper. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sfflesley 0 #4 June 21, 2008 I'm his neighbor - and two weeks later, I'm still laughing my ass off at the squirrels on his roof. It's not a good idea to mess with Mr. Wonderful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riddler 0 #6 June 21, 2008 The best camping jokes are the ones that take a few days to setup. One thing we used to do it tell each other scary stories at night - a little unrealistic, but not too much. During the day, we plant evidence that lends credibility to the story. If you do it over several days, you can make a pretty convincing case. Then they made a movie out of it called "The Blair Witch project", and now no one falls for it anymore. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I was about 10 years old and in boy scouts I had a circular blue canteen. I was bored and put a flashlight in it so it lit up bright blue, and then I walked from the tent to somewhere for who knows what reason. Anyway, I get back to the campfire, and people are freaking out, I'm like "WTF?" Turns out there was a ghost story about the plateau we were camping on, and the ghost or whatever was supposed to maifest itself as a ball of blue light!Everyone had heard this story before except me... I was laughing my ass off!"Some people follow their dreams, others hunt them down and beat them mercilessly into submission." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
