@Theo: Yo dawg, we heard you liked squirrelbombs, so we put a squirrelbomb in your squirrelbomb so you can squirrelbomb while you squirrelbomb.

7 Theo 08.19.09 at 12:53 pm

Speaking of photobombs, it appears that the server hosting this service has already exploded. I can’t get it to respond anymore, can anyone else?

11 Theresa 08.19.09 at 1:25 pm

Hee, I’m sending Skwerlio on a tour of Italy. Skwerls are the New Gnomes!!!

12 Theresa 08.19.09 at 1:27 pm

Oh noes! We borked the Squirrelizer!

13 christopher 08.19.09 at 1:29 pm

way to go people…you blew up the squirrelizer

[Good grief, you're saying we Slashdotted it?? Oh, there's irony here. :? - Ed.]

14 Argyle Donkeypants 08.19.09 at 1:40 pm

@Theo: I suppose you’ll also expect us to believe that your hovercraft is full of eels.

[No, but my hovertext is full of win! :cool: - Ed.]

15 Leslie (NTA) 08.19.09 at 1:48 pm

Poor Theo — he’s so overworked !!

[Yes, poor poor pitiful meeee... - Ed.]

…..The site is going well….they’ve dropped skwerls in front of the cameras. The back motors of the website are holding…just enough to keep it from— It’s burst into flames! It burst into flames, and it’s falling, it’s crashing! Watch it! Watch it! Get out of the way! Skwerls everywhere! It’s fire—and it’s crashing! It’s crashing terrible! Oh, my! Get out of the way, please! Make way for the skwerls to run away! And all the folks agree that this is terrible; this is the one of the worst catastrophes in the world. [indecipherable] its flames… Crashing, oh! It’s a terrific crash, ladies and gentlemen. It’s smoke, and it’s in flames now; and the site is crashing to the ground, not quite by the mooring-mast. Oh, the skwerl-ity!
All the prarie dawgs and hammies are yelling for help. I told you; it—I can’t even talk to any mammals now. Their friends are out there! Ah! It’s—it—it’s a—ah! I—I can’t talk, ladies and gentlemen. Honest: it’s just laying there, mass of smoking wreckage. Ah! And everybody can hardly breathe and talk and the screaming. Listen, folks; I—I’m gonna have to stop for a minute because I’ve lost my voice. This is the worst thing I’ve ever witnessed, even worse than when my stereo broke and I could no longer listen to the song stylings of Mr. Hairy Como, the be-sweatered king of music..who can forget his hit “Skwerl Loves Mambo”? Yes, ladies, and gentlemen, it is worse than that.

25 kittyadventures 08.19.09 at 2:59 pm

P.S. that Means Thanks

[ :D means You're Welcome - Ed.]

26 rpennefe 08.19.09 at 3:01 pm

@ Saffron – you totally made me think:

As god is my witness, I thought squirrels could fly!

27 Patito Gigante 08.19.09 at 3:25 pm

You can also replace the word “girl” with the word “squirrel” (skwurl) in any popular song.

28 Patito Gigante 08.19.09 at 3:35 pm

Though if I’d been paying attention I would have noticed that Saffron already kicked the whole world’s butt at that game.

29 Leslie (NTA) 08.19.09 at 3:36 pm

Theo — was that a ref to Linda Ronstadt’s song, or to the one from Hee-Haw (“Gloom, despay-uhr, excessive misereeeeeee….”)???

Or — on a really bad day, you could play them BOTH !!!

Signed,
I tried to connect a link & found webpp about hh & that gave a bit about the song but none directly just to that song alone….So much for my komputer (non)Kleverness….

30 Theo 08.19.09 at 3:40 pm

NOT the Hee Haw version. Yikes.
It’s by Warren Zevon, actually; Linda Ronstadt and some chick named Terri Clark did covers.

(If it weren’t for bay-ad luck, I’d have no luck a’tall…)

31 Saffron 08.19.09 at 3:47 pm

:) :) @ rpennefe WKRP was one of the best shows……

…and thanks a LOT, Patito Gigante. It’s bad enough I cannot get Lord of the Pants out of my head (sub “pants” for all nouns as in “Gondor has no Pants. Gondor needs no Pants). Now I am forever stuck with subbing skwerl for all girl songs now.
Great.
Thanks.

*hums* I wish they all could be California Skwe……oh, d*mmit!!!

32 marthava 08.19.09 at 3:52 pm

lol @ Theo. I snorked (exhale as opposed to an inhaled snorf) at the triple-header. lolol

33 Patito Gigante 08.19.09 at 4:12 pm

This is the squirrel-bomb that’s been haunting me for years.

Wish I knew how to do this! My friend had a squirrel stuff a nut up her car underside & caused $1,200 in alternator damage. I luv to send her squirrel pics every so often

43 Leslie (NTA) 08.19.09 at 8:26 pm

Hey folks!
I just came from watching HLN’s Showbiz program for today & they had a Jeannie Moos segment, about the Squirrel taking over the Universe ….AND the segment had a quick flash of the CO masthead AND included a brief shot of the Dramatic Chipmunk (WITH the ominous musical tones: duh duh DUH) AND THEN in a totally different segment (but within the same S’biz program) had one of the Piano-playing felines !!!!! (But just one kitty; not NTMTOM’s mix o’ kitties….)

I love it!!!

52 Rachael 08.20.09 at 7:57 am

It’s only a matter of time before Mr. Squirrelio hires an agent and signs on for his own reality show. Needless to say, I’ll be right there in front of my tv, watching to see where the little fellow shows up next. :)

53 Stacie 08.20.09 at 10:07 am

I wuvs it…is now my wallpaper!

54 Matthew 08.20.09 at 12:08 pm

Madness? This. Is. SQUIRRELIZAAAAAA!

55 pitu 08.20.09 at 12:32 pm

@Claudia,

Can we has an Obamasqwerl? YES WE CAN!! :D

@Get your cute on,

Did you make sure whatever you were trying to sqwerlise was a jpeg?

[Have you clicked on the photo right up there in the post? - Ed.]

57 ss 08.20.09 at 3:47 pm

WARNING:

DO NOT CLICK ON THE RANDOM LINK AT WORK.

It’s random and people can put anything they want there. I clicked it ONLY once and I got a nice picture of a fully naked woman [you know, we don't actually need the graphic detail, thanks much - Ed.] with the squirrel photobomber in front.

Yep, I’m at work. Sigh, I hope I don’t get in trouble. :(

58 Lucas 08.20.09 at 4:25 pm

haha, oh this is so awesome! Although, it lacks the beautiful banff scenery!

59 Nikole Hahn 08.20.09 at 6:41 pm

The dog is saying, “I thought my master shot him.” The dog just spent the day working hard, digging at a problem, guarding his projects, and now he has to come home to a squirrel. The squirrel, on the other hand, has just returned from Starbucks. This explains his quirkiness and his hyper activity. He had a triple espresso cafe mocha in a venti size and now he’s practically tearing the house apart while the dog is too tired to eat him.

60 ana 08.20.09 at 6:57 pm

funny! =)

61 Kristina Noir 08.20.09 at 7:16 pm

Um, that’s a Prarie Dog.

[No, it's Joaquin Phoenix. I read it on the internet. - Ed.]

62 gerbilize 08.20.09 at 8:24 pm

we just squirrelized a photo and are encouraging others to email us their own shots for us to feature on our blog. please check it out: http://gerbilize.wordpress.com/2009/08/20/gerbilize-wants-you-to-squirrelize/

64 Tink 08.21.09 at 8:31 am

have been trying to squirrelize something – ANYthing – but can’t get it to work… is the site down or am i doing something wrong?! :o (

65 gerbilize 08.21.09 at 9:06 am

hey tink – make sure you’re using a .jpg file. i had that problem too at first. pictures that are hosted on facebook, flickr etc. might not work. good luck! :)

66 Ms. Scarlet 08.21.09 at 1:05 pm

I hate to point it out, but adorable as that creature is, it is not in fact a squirrel. It appears to be a prairie dog.

67 pitu 08.21.09 at 1:59 pm

So basically the Squirrelizer is *SO POWERFUL* even prairie dogs are getting sqwerlised into sqwerls?

Ow my head hurts.

68 The Shazinator 08.21.09 at 5:23 pm

As has been said many times before, it’s a Columbian ground squirrel, not a prairie dog. He’s in Banff, not the prairie!

And here is my winter version of the original photo, as posted before in the other thread: http://www.flickr.com/photos/46871163@N00/3835690988/ I’m a view whore. :)

[Yeah? Well I'll see your Banff and raise. All in! - Ed.]

69 Theo 08.21.09 at 5:34 pm

PS: hehehe :D

70 The Shazinator 08.22.09 at 4:26 am

Found two sites that let you add a squirrel to any photo. The second one lets you add it to t-shirts & other stuff.

Hey, had to ask, just by curiosity: who’s that guy on the squirrelized icon on the beach in the top 4??
That guy had his pic chosen to illustrate the squirrelizer post after all, so there must be something.
