This week’s Share Your World answers promise to be just as exciting as watching a Soviet pop concert…
It’s that time each week The Nest tackles Melanie’s weekly Share Your World questions. While I try to inject my “special” sense of humor into this post every week for your personal amusement… none of the questions this week seemed to lend themselves to any Shelf critter shenanigans or other assorted tomfoolery. Let’s see what happens when I attempt to play SYW straight…. and don’t blame me if it rips open the space-time continuum.
May as well go with the old, boring logo.
Do you have a favorite kind of tree?
Trees are trees to me. Even now, after taking so many pictures of squirrel in trees, I rarely pay attention to their different characteristics. If anything, about all I can differentiate trees by is whatever type of annoying tree sperm it pollutes the air and ground with…
Who really wants to walk in the afterglow of tree sex?
What bridges are you happy you burned?
Burning bridges kinda lends itself to meaning you’ve not only cut ties with someone/something, but have eliminated any hope that you might be able to renew that previous relationship. I don’t think I’ve ever done that.
Well, there was that one time I was playing with matches…. but it was an accident. And it didn’t make me happy.
Would you sacrifice yourself (die) for a stranger?
I wouldn’t sacrifice myself for a loved one. My life is my most valued possession. I’m really THAT type of person…
Sorry, dude. You’re on your own!
How have your priorities changed since the C-19 virus took over?
Not one damned bit. I’m just trying to cope in a world that is obsessed with something I don’t give a shit about…
What do you mean they said I can’t eat at this restaurant because of a virus? Who are THEY?
Please feel free to share your gratitude!
After my garbage disposal quit working Sunday, I figured I’d get to spend my four day “weekend” this week trying to figure out how to get and install a new one since there was no way I was going to go through a debacle with “professional” plumbers again anytime soon. A quit look at Professor Google Monday morning, however, turned up a YouTube video of how to fix a disposal that was acting just like mine did. A few minutes of sticking a plunger handle down there did the trick and had me back in business! Sometimes, this 21st Century technology actually is a good thing…
I guess I won’t be getting plumbers to dig me another hole to bury a body…

oh great that you fixed it with dr. google! I failed with cleaning my carpet the google way, but maybe I asked at the wrong day?
I was really surprised it worked! I’m not handy at all, and my Dad was a walking DIY disaster, so I was at the sole hope of that video!
I burn bridges and let the flames light my way forward. I’m a hard-hearted Hannah in some situations. Boundaries are good.
A little arson can be good for the soul…
Thanks E.S. for Sharing Your World!! If the space/time continuum rips wide open, I’ll take sole responsibility for that, but I will ‘borrow permanently” Buster to stuff in the crack. It (apparently) won’t hurt him, he’ll just be back tomorrow…. 😆 I actually enjoyed the glimpse (fleeting and a one time only I realize) of the sober Squirrel. Now you can let us know which state of being is preferable? Heh. I’ll try to come up with questions more suited to unique senses of humor next week though! 😀
Don’t go out of your way on my part, I enjoy the challenge of all kinds of questions. Even trying to go straight, I still brought up tree semen. And that’s not a very rational and sober thought…
The Google thing CAN be super helpful – I love asking questions that are weird – I get amazing answers some of which are actually useful! Congrats on fixing your disposal – I can remember my Dad shoving a broom handle down ours many years ago – probably same idea as the plunger handle remedy. Glad you didn’t have to call the grave digging crew back into your poor weary kitchen.

Yeah, I didn’t have another $12,000 lying around for them to come out and tear anything else up so that they had a giant hole to stick their broom handle in. I think half of plumbing college is figuring out ways to charge for all those “extras”…
I don’t listen to anybody where I should eat. I get hungry and the world knows about it…even the tree sperm knows…I eats where I please…thank you very much.

I wish I could be the same way, but I’m not a cat. Or even a squirrel (don’t tell anybody). They make me follow regulations. There’s that nebulous THEY again…
Awk…more kitchen drama? Man you have had it come in spades, haven’t you? ♠️ ♠️ ♠️
Five spades make a flush, and there’s a plumbing pun for you…
Looking after number one. Yeah!
Exactly! Me first, and everyone else last…
Do you understand how great is that shadow photo of two squirrels? It is perfect!

I put that photo in my countdown I did a couple years ago…. but only at #140. I do really like it, though… and it’s a photo I can no longer get since the lower branches on that tree are gone now.
