We’ve invented another Would You Rather. Watch and comment!
Be sure to visit the Kommunity Forum and post your own WYR question (and place it in the “Would You Rather?” category)! We’ll try to pick some creative and fun ones to discuss in future vlogs.
Comment: Would you rather: announce “I’m squirrelly” when entering every venue of any size?…OR…Carry a leashed squirrel with you at all times?




I think I would yell, “I’m squirrelly!!” when entering a room. Having to deal with life tethered to a squirrel would just be too wearisome. And let’s face it, after a while with the squirrel-on-the-leash you would REALLY go squirrelly before too long! With making the announcement you get it out of the way right off the bat and then you are done, you don’t have to worry about after that. Carrying a live squirrel with you would be a 24/7 job, you would have health codes to deal with, you’d risk law suits if the squirrel went “nuts” and attacked someone, not to mention doctor bills for yourself and the insurance rate hike you’d sure to entail. Soon your family and friends would begin to avoid you altogether and you’d eventually find yourself alone…just you and the squirrel.
Im Squirrely!! So get away from meh!!
Lol, i would rather have both cuz squirels are awsome. i wish i was an albino squirel.
I would rather announce Im squirelly beacause who would want a rabid squirell chasing them
I would rather do option A, because well I am kind of squirrelly.
OMG Your Band Rap video is now featured on Choralnet.org — it’s a website that features tons and tons of resources for choir people. WOW!!!!! This is uber exciting!! XD

I would totally rather do the annoucement. Everyone knows that when you say “I’m squirlley” you mean “I’m awesome – yet humble.” Tell me, who wouldn’t want to get in on that action!!!
Was this really a “would you rather” or more of Rhett calling out Link for being a squirrel? Either way, I liked it.
Interestingly enough, today’s PBS hunting show was on shooting squirrels. Huh?
Since I can’t imagine showering, using the restroom, or being romantic with an untrained squirrel that could bite, I will choose to announce my squirrely-ness. Unless the squirrel may have an unfortunate accident in the first week….then I choose the accident-prone squirrel.
Gotta go with the squirrel on a leash. That just inconveniences me. I couldn’t be that a-hole if I got to something late and had to interrupt just for my squirrelly-ness!
There are few of us leashers here. I feel both would draw attention, but at least there are measure I could take to lessen the squirrels impact on my day-to-day life (as opposed to always yelling in public.)
Squirrel mittens and booties, for starters; you’ve got to do what you have to to eliminate the flesh wounds. And I liked the comment about “Attack, Sparticus!!”… there will often be useful times for that (“With all respect, sir, you should probably give me this job, or else…”. But what if I don’t want to scare people? That’s what the costumes are for; little pirate Captain Jack Squirrel, for example. Nothing says “life of the party” like having a swashbuckling squirrel.
And, over time, I’d either train it, or learn it’s personality and work around that.
Besides, I’ve always thought it be cool to have a pet squirrel.
Does the leashed squirrel have to be attached to you during bedtime and potty breaks? Because I’m not sure if I could “go” with that thing watching me. It would be fun to have a squirrel around, but I’m probably going to go with announcing “I’m squirrelly.”
I do stuff like that anyway.
I already do the announcement, I am in my third year with yelling that.
Hilarious video. I always watch these vlogs at night after everyone’s in bed, and I’m sitting here with my earbuds in fits of silent laughter. If anyone came out and saw me, they’d wonder what on earth I was doing, LOL.
At first I thought for sure that I’d take the leashed squirrel, because I don’t really like to draw huge amounts of attention to myself, which is what yelling “I’m squirrelly!” would be doing. However, having an untrainable leashed squirrel with me constantly would also draw lots of attention. On one hand, if I had to yell “I’m squirrelly!” everytime I entered a place, I could just never leave my house…..but somehow I still have an easier time picturing myself with a leashed squirrel than doing the yelling thing, so I guess I’d go with the leashed squirrel.
Would you rather questions are hilarious, I’ll try to come up with some to post in the forum!
Maybe I am truly squirrelly already, but I think it would be pretty sweet to have a harness squirrel with me.
If i want an extra seat beside me I would just scream: Attack Spartacus (the squirrel) and I’m sure ppl will clear the way. As for it being an inconvenience, the squirrel has to sleep some time and at least only the ppl nearby will be the only ones to notice the squirrel; yelling all the time will get everyone’s attention and I might be charged with causing a public disturbance/ nuisance.
Can you imagine how hard it would be for the “I’m squirrelly” announcer to attend a loved one’s funeral?
I’d rather announce that I’m squirrelly.
I would rather anounce that “I’m squirrelly”.
I showed my friend this video. After we watched it, later on the fire alarm went off in my residence hall. While we were standing outside waiting to go back in, I turned to my friend and told him “You should shout out ‘I’m Squirrelly!’”. And he did! lol!! It was hilarious.
I would totally pick bringing a leashed squirrel everywhere. I think they are amazing! Plus, the way you describe the squirrel reminds me of my little sister anyway. Totally used to that.
I would rather be attached to the crazy squirrel. I hate being in front of people, and I REALLY hate public speaking. Definitely going to take my chances with the squirrel.
Me too, I’d rather announce “I’m squirrley” everywhere I go. Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve admitted that I’m squirrely either.
)
First option for me!
i would definitely rather announce im squirrelly. if i had to walk around everywhere with an untrainable squirrel, well, im very afraid of the things i might do to it.
haha I agree with Samantha. This place is FULL of squirrel hunters! XD
But If I truly had to choose, I guess I would have to yell “I’m squirrely!!”
I think I would rather have Link’s problem. I think announcing that you’re squirrelly might have some interesting results. You never know- you could make a ton of interesting friends that way…
oh golly. i hate squirrels. i would hate to own a crazed one and i would hate to be associated with one.
my answer to this is: no. just.. no.
one ran under my car, and i didn’t feel bad for very long. call me heartless. my friends and i even invented characters that fought against giant squirrels that were taking over the world.
I would go with announcing I’m squirrelly! Would everyone say that?? Cuz if they did, it would be less awkward…
I would take the squirrel, because in the South it would be shot almost immediately and I wouldn’t have to deal with it for very long.
I think I would rather announce that I’m squirrelly! I would like to be a band teacher someday and I think announcing I’m squirrelly would at least get the kids to laugh and not be afraid of me like a untamed squirrel on a 4 foot leash would.
Is the squirrel immortal? If yes, I’m taking the announcement every time I enter a room. There are a number of occasions in which I can imagine the squirrel being a far more heinous inconvenience.
