China accused of using fake groundhogs to hack Google accounts in Springfield – Weird China News
www.english.freiescientologen.de — Groundhogs sold to several gullible city council members in the town of Springfield started to behave strangely when asked to come out and see their shadows. One witness says that the alleged groundhogs, which looked much more like squirrels, jumped out of the holes, and started stealing cellphones which they then hacked for personal information. More than one witness reported hearing chatter which sounded "like something Asian." The FBI agents who promptly arrived on scene cleared things up at a press conference, later in the day, when they said that the squirrels were actually trained Chinese spies looking for the email addresses of Chinese human rights activists.
This just in: Shaun Rein, columnist at Forbes, and a man who only identified himself as #CBD, both said that the FBI was, in fact, wrong and that the squirrels were, in fact, groundhogs.
Please, Hao Hao reporters, if you hear of anything in the coming hours, help us fill in the blanks.
You crack me up. Squirrels with an agenda crack me up too.
Whatever happened to the Chinasphere's favorite three letter twitter hashtag?
nstanoshack, apparently likes voting down funny things...even when it makes no sense to...c'mon nstanoshack, you know you want to add to the squirrel spy report!
No, Damjan. It's a Baptist (Deacons) vs. the Squirrels thing. http://othersiderainbow.blogspot.com/2010/01/squirrels-vs-church.html
Wdbox, this is truly excellent. An inspired bit of throwback comedy. Goes to show you - if you want someone to leave, don't fire them, just give them extra responsibility. I could see a cute squirrel meme rising up to challenge the cute cat meme one day; if only someone could figure out how to domesticate a squirrel species or two.
Dude, squirrels bite. Hard!
I've heard this, too. But I feel like there's a way to domesticate the squirrel so that they're safe to keep around toddlers. Then the world would be one step closer to a Golden Compass reality....sigh...only if that were really possible.
