We've previously discussed that I work for a mobile phone company. We've also discussed that the Todd-Folk in Portland are kind of scary. They'll cut you and then NOT take your wallet. They'll cut you for the love of cutting.
I just received this email.

Apologies to those who hate such things but this lolsquirrel (http://icanhascheezburger.com/2008/03/26/funny-pictures-come-over-here-and-say-that/) just seems too relevant not to link to.

Not to get further off topic, but that squirrel's right thumb looks like a nipple ring.
(I am so sorry, smick)
-
I dont get it. Is the proposed joke that the cables are damaging the squirrels?
-
No, the joke is that the squirrels are messing with the cables on account of being crap dudes.
