It just wouldn’t be a proper Tuesday if The Nest didn’t share its world with you. Not that you asked in the first place… but we’re just that nice. As usual, we’ll use Melanie’s questions she posed for this week because…. well, it is her feature after all. It would be rude to use someone else’s questions and call it Share Your World. It’s probably also rude to pose children’s toys in awkward scenes and give them highly suggestive dialogue, but that’s neither here nor there…
Social media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat) a good thing, a bad thing or a mixture of both?
I can think of absolutely no good that comes from platforms that allow and practically encourage people to put their entire lives out in the public eye. I am obviously in the minority…
Are you camera shy or do you pose for the camera with confidence?
I hate having my picture taken. I’ve been dragged unwillingly into every photo that includes me going back to whatever time when I was a kid that I stopped getting a kick out of having my picture taken. Thank goodness I’m not famous…
Is there anything you’ve kept from younger years for sentimental reasons alone?
I have so many trinkets from my past, I can’t even remember all of the stories behind them. I don’t know if more of my shit will be going to Goodwill or the landfill when I die and some unfortunate soul has to clean up my disaster…
Do you like to decorate for different holidays?
I don’t decorate for any silly occasion. My token contribution to holiday gaudiness is the pumpkin I carve each Halloween and place out on the porch that evening. My squirrel o’lanterns are quite….. interesting. Dog willing, there will be another carving creation in a few weeks…
Do you feel you’re a strong person character-wise? Also, if you do have a gratitude thought or picture you’d like to share, please feel free! The world can always use more positive vibes!
Mr. Fox is a great source of positive vibes! Just look into his eyes. Keep looking. Feel the positive vibes yet? Do you feel yourself drawn into his happy zone?
As usual we’ve kind of taken social media to an extreme. If only people would implement moderation. Now there’s a concept!
There’s no place for moderation when there’s selfies to be posted!
Instagram would confirm that!
Instagram would definitely confirm statement!
Everything in moderation – particularly moderation.
I sure hope that wasn’t Shadow in the donation bin, I’d be upset if it was….and Mr. Fox, what can I say? He’s the ultimate smooth talker, lol.
Ha! You even recognize Shadow from his…. um, back end! That’s from an old episode where Shadow was being annoying… heck, the critters all think he’s annoying! At least he has a #1 Fan now to cheer him on!
Mr. Fox’s eyes could rule the world…. if he so desired, of course. Only a few gullible people have actually sent him their credit card numbers so far…
WooHoo Shadow’s #1 fan here!!!
So selfies is not your favorites, it is so funny everywhere seeing people their heads together smiling taking selfies.
Mr.Fox, tell me your email and I will send you all the information to get my six euros.
Selfies…. ugh. Hard to believe the song “You’re So Vain” was written 40 years before the selfie became popular…
Mr. Fox says .”……….,” which I think means the euros are in the mail.
BWAHAHAHAHHA!!! Wait!! Where are my credit cards and social security… Oh crap. 😐 Tell Fuzzywig if he tries using those to buy “medical” marijuana, he’s in for a session with Lady Withdrawals, because I’m flat broke (was going to say “busted” but then all sorts of innuendo would have ensued and we don’t have time for all that)… Sorry Hypno-Fox. Thanks ES for Sharing Your Incredibly Unique World each week. It’s the highlight of my Tuesday…
I don’t know if Fuzzywig’s “pharmacist” takes credit cards anyway, so I wouldn’t worry about that. Mitzi’s plastic surgeon might, but he won’t accept “busted.” Though the girl has alternate methods of paying for her body work.
The critters are always happy to entertain. Feel free to throw tips, spitwads, rotten eggs, hand grenades their way to show your appreciation….
Ha, I see you have no problem dragging poor unwilling squirrels in front of your camera lens, though…
Well, it’s not like squirrels have rights or anything. Crap, did I really just say that?
My credit card number is 1234 5678 9012 3456 – and the security code on the backside is 789.
Someone, somewhere is the world, is now going to be buying my new sports car with that information…
Good luck with that …
My goodness, you were expected to assess your own strength of character? What squirrel knows the answer to that? These questions are getting deep. Take care or you’ll become profound…
My blog often wades in the deep end… and that deepness is usually what people talk about when they say “it’s getting pretty deep in here”….
Good for you taking on these questions every week…..not an easy task when one is trying to hang on to every last shred of sanity they may (or may not) possess. I don’t “get” the selfie craze but then that is like an admission on my part that I’m too darn old to want my photo taken!! OK – I confess – that’s exactly why I hate selfies. So there. Love the squirrel photo – looks like he’s saying “Who??? Meeeee????”.

Poor squirrel… I ruined his day by taking his picture! He’ll never leave the nest again…
Good call not letting Uncle Snuggie help with your Squirrel O’ Lantern. He would either carve you up or create a pedo pumpkin that would get you arrested!
Ha! Now I’m thinking of Uncle Snuggie’s Halloween candy bowl from my very first episode of Shelf Critter Theatre! He rounded up every sharp object and poisonous thing he could find to put in there. I’ll have to keep him locked up on the 31st!
