This is a brilliant use of WD-40, is there anything it can't do? I think not! I use the stuff for just about everything and now it looks like I'll be using it as a squirrel deterrent. I have a well documented deep psychotic hatred for squirrels.
Squirrels seem like they'd make awesome pets. They're cute, they're energetic and, sometimes, they do something hilarious, like what this squirrel attempts in this video.
Sure, baby squirrels are a little weird looking, but so's our cousin Jon, and we don't go around pepper spraying him anytime he approaches a bunch of middle schoolers. (Wait, that sounds weird. You get what we mean....)
These animals know what's up. They know your secret. They know you're in on the joke. They know how to close their eyes one at a time. They know how to be adorable. They know how to wink.
To be fair, we can't say schadenfreude, but that doesn't mean we aren't having a good chuckle at these Germans struggling with the word "squirrel."
