Pop Culture Frenzy, Round 19

Welcome once again to Pop Culture Frenzy.   Here's our question.




A bicycle belonging to an associate math professor at Iowa Lakes Community College was repeatedly vandalized.  Who did it?
Fluffy?




 
A disgruntled colleague?
 
 
 
Hostmaster: incorrect.
Bryan?
 
 
 
A disgruntled student?
 
 
 
 
 
Hostmaster:  incorrect.
Cyndi?
 
 
 
 
 
 
A spurned lover?
 
 
 
 
 
Hostmaster:  incorrect.
Molly?
 
 
 
 
A squirrel?
 
 
 
Hostmaster:  Correct.  Some other professor came forward with a photo of the squirrel "attacking" the bike tires.
 
 
 
 
Another professor "came forward" with a photo? 
Sounds fishy.  I think Fluffy and I got it right.
  It was a disgruntled person.
The squirrel was hired to vandalize the bike,
 then was thrown under the bus, so to speak. 
 


 
 
 
Yeah!  But I still think it was a spurned lover!
  We all know who ugly failed relationships can get!
 


 
 
 
 
On the other hand, photos can be doctored.
  Perhaps the photo implicating the squirrel is a cover-up
for something even more nefarious.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Could be the real culprit was a
 former student/colleague/lover of the math professor,
further embittered because this associate
 animal behaviorist professor's
 life work has been foiled by uncooperative animals.
Darn elegant solution employing a squirrel for the hit!
 


 
 
 
Haha!  I can sort of relate to wanting
 revenge against uncooperative animals!



 
 
 
Is that a dig?
 
 
 
 
 
Perhaps it was a random attack.
This math professor guy was simply unlucky.
 

 
 
 
Or maybe the math professor is a dork and
 nobody likes him.  People can be cruel.
 
 
 
 
 
Maybe he was the only dork who rides his
bike to school.




 
It's probably a "hate" crime.
  Lots of people hate math!




 
Was the squirrel allowed to make a statement
 or did they convict solely on a photograph? 
 
 
 
 
 
The squirrel does not appear to have been
 given an opportunity to offer his side of the story.
 Meanwhile the math professor now
 parks his bicycle inside the building.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Round 19
Fluffy/Molly  9
Bryan/Cyndi   9

  1. I can testify that squirrels are devious little rascals, so nothing they do surprises me!

  2. Haha, what an interesting exchange and all about the suspected involvement of a squirrel in an act of vandalism. But yeah, squirrels are cute, but they can be sneaky too. Could be any of the above scenarios really.
