    Hmmm… Climbing a tree to escape a bear. I don’t see any flaws with that plan. 😉

    But if you’re ever being chased by a wild boar, THEN you should def climb a tree. Cause pigs can’t look up.

    And there’s a random fact for the day. Enjoy. (:

      I almost want to say he should change it so people don’t get the idea that climbing a tree is a feasible way to escape a bear.

      Then I realize that anyone making life-or-death decisions based on something they read in a comic on the internet probably isn’t doing the gene pool a lot of good anyway. :p

      From what I understand, black bears are the only ones that climb trees well/commonly.

      Course, a mad grizzly would just tear the tree down and bring you with it…

    What, adults can’t climb trees for fun ?

    Seriously is there a rule book I need to read or something ? I was in a mulberry tree earlier today eating berries and I thought that was acceptable behavior…

        I just watched Hannibal recently, so a cut chick here gave me more horrible implication.

    Any time you can work a trebuchet into the joke, I think it’s a good thing. And having it fling something absurd—yeah, corpses work, or maybe donkeys with parachutes, though that joke, unfortunately, is already sort of taken—is just a bonus.

    Or, you’re playing Fable 3 and you spawned in a tree. Then got stuck. Forever.

    Suppose the tree is a bug eating tree? A spoof of the kite eating tree from Peanuts.

    Any joke is funnier with a trebuchet. But now I wonder where they were trying to fling the corpse… especially since they’re described as “friends”….

    John Muir climbed a really tall tree in California and stayed up there while it swayed all over the place during a big storm. For him it was a religious experience.

    I would love to have my friends use my corpse in their trebuchet. All I need is some friends. Oh, and a trebuchet.

    Last time I climbed a tree was because of my good friend Jose Cuervo. Needless to say I was told the next day I fell out of it…my body testified to that fact! 😀

      AMooseInAHummer how about a week of drugs?
      why would you want to stay on drugs for a week? maybe take a weeks worth of drugs everyday for a week and I am sure you will see all kinds of bugs while on those drugs.

    #4: you’re a Lumberjack. A singing lumberjack (aren’t they all?), because you hadn’t wanted to be a barber, cut cut cut cutting cutting cutting your hair. You’d leap fom tree to tree, with your best girl your side, and sing…sing…

    Ooh! New funerary idea. Have my corpse packed with water-reactive chemicals, then launch it into the ocean from a trebuchet on a seaside cliff.

    Fling!

    Whooooooooossshhh…..

    BOOM!
