can we not conflate cleverness and coincidence please?
killjoy…
Look, there are good rodents on both sides of Squirrel on Chipmunk violence.
Build it and they will come.
Seriously.
(heads off to Amazon to buy some slinkies…)
I, for one, welcome our new Sciuridaen overlords.
you mean Fine Rodents.
Even so, that was a very good aim and launch.
“Coincident squirrel uses slinky o shoot chipmunk away from its food”
staged - fake news!
Conscripted into service and certain of their doom, the untrained Distillery Brothers charge into battle fueled by fermented acorn courage.
Or possibly the squirrel was trying to drag it’s food away from the annoying chipmunk but dropped it.
Squirrels are smart, but that does not appear to be the case here.
Only 1st stage of escalation, comrade. Chipmunk to next rain Jarts down upon squirrel in retaliation.
In my universe – the fun one – it was absolutely intentional.
In my universe, Shoemaker–Levy 9’s encounter with Jupiter was followed by a booming voice intoning, “One hundred and ay-tee!”
I’d say intention was involved - by whoever set this up.
