Pre-Recession Time Capsule Unearthed Deep Within MS Office

Cast your minds back to a time before The Recession. If you're finding it difficult to think over the thick stench of new-hobos burning their last belongings in trash-cans, for warmth, then take a look at this:

This is an image included somewhere in my never-used Office 2004 folder. The pictures tell a stylishly-shaded tale of what things were like before the whole world economy went to total shit. Diggers loaded up trucks. Couples hugged trees and dug around them, secure in the knowledge that they were basically giants.

ACTUAL giant farmers roamed the planes, claiming and cuddling grain silos like the benevolent subsidy-gods they are. And Michael Clyne had the power to become a REAL SAIL.

That's how things used to be. Now it's just apply tar or have tar applied to you. Burn shit in a big metal drum, or have all your shit burnt in a big metal drum. The future is a long unemployed squirrels' nest of pain in which all your computers will eventually need servicing or upgrades which you can not afford, because you will be slightly poorer, and slightly more dead inside. Those cliparts aint pretty. You've been warned.

Also: women had freakishly wide shoulders. And were ghosts.

Probably. But I'm running for city council and that's the sort of shit people throw back in your face.

More importantly, is "squirrels nest" possessive? And if so, in what way?

I've settled on squirrels' nest, because lots of squirrels live in the nest.

But what if there's one squirrel who is totally in charge. And so it's their nest. And every other squirrel is just hanging out there?

Also the 'a' in "a squirrels' nest" is a singular thing right? So maybe "squirrels nest" is right after all?

My google is broken.

Are you really running for council? What is your platform?

Also, do you have the ability to fuck things with your mind? This will be key to your electability.

Squirrels' nest is how the AP would do it. But who the fuck are they?
