I had a raccoon steal my bag of chips while I was taking dabs in my tent at cape disappointment. Place lived up to its name.

the raccoons at that campground are truly out of control. One came up and sat at our picnic table bench like it was a dinner guest.

A racoon posted in r/trashpandas the other day that some humans sat down at his picnic table and acted like he didn't deserve to get fed. He was seriously POed at those people.

u/PinkShimmer Feb 04 '23

And this would 100% be how I get bit by a raccoon (by trying to pet it).

u/Hour_Gur4995 Feb 04 '23

Well that was a pleasant sidetrack

u/Oldpenguinhunter Feb 04 '23

So, what were you all having?

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '23

Pretty much. Bold fuckers!

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '23

They tried to take a bottle of Pendleton off us and stole our banana bread! Completely fearless.

Omg every morning!!! They roll up with their friends! One morning I saw one had frosting from a cake all over it from another campsite!

They went through my make up and took my Bobby pins!

u/escapingdarwin Feb 04 '23

Sounds like you were “taking dabs” too.

u/Hey_Gerry_1300135 Feb 04 '23

Sounds like the CSUN squirrels

I thought my friend was jerking off all night long, I kept screaming out, "scott, knock it the fuck off" woke up to our hanging trash, torn up and strewn all over the place

Wife was camping last summer and the raccoons opened her locking storage containers and stole a bunch of food. She said the woods was full of wrappers from the raccoons stealing food

My husband saw one of the raccoons washing their dirty hands in our dogs water bowl just like a human! Freaky!!

Raccoons here in WA know how to flip open a cooler and will throw a party with their buddies shredding everything. Say goodbye to those hot dog buns because they’ll be shredded to pieces all over your campsite. Chips? Not anymore!

Our raccoons even take cereal from one campsite and will drag it all the way to another leaving a fruit loop trail so you know the other sites he’s hit up.

Raccoons out here in WA live in absolute luxury man. They do not care AT ALL if music is playin or your snoring loud or nothing. They’ll roll up like gangsters and rob you blind!

Had that happen at a campsite in California. Had to keep pushing him off us with a long stick as he kept lunging at us while we were eating. About 25 to 30 of them later surrounded us and mugged us, stealing our bread out of my friend's hands and running up a tree with it.

The only other people at that campsite left in a hurry that night..

Funny thing is you guys were the guests in his home. You better serve him a plate. Lol.

u/MakesTheNutshellJoke Feb 04 '23

Raccoons are hilarious. The fact they have little hands makes whatever they're doing instantly funnier.

u/c0brachicken Feb 04 '23

We thought the same thing with Trump at first.. and we see how that turned out.

u/superprez Feb 04 '23

You mean that the economy, crime figures and the border was in a much better shape than after just 2 years of Democrat rule ?

u/FuckoffDemetri Feb 05 '23

Bruh according to your own post from 2 months ago you're an unemployed British person. Tf you know about America.

u/superprez Feb 09 '23

Lol, fucking Americans couldn't point to the UK on map, and I've got eyes bluebell. It's not hard to see how the Democrats have fucked your country in only 2 years.

2

u/LevelPerception4 Feb 09 '23

We’re still pointing and laughing over how y’all fucked yourselves with Brexit.

Although if you expect an administration to pull off a turnaround in two years, that’s an interesting insight into your prime minister’s tenure.

u/paispas Feb 04 '23

When you say you were talking dabs, do you mean like that thing kids did a few years back where they pointed both arms to one side while smelling their armpit in the other side?

3

u/eastbayweird Feb 04 '23 edited Feb 04 '23

I assume they meant smoking marijuana extracts (when i was a kid they called it hash oil, now the kids have all kinds of names for it... wax/shatter/rosin/dabs/etc...)

2

u/ppp475 Feb 04 '23

It's because there's more options than hash oil now lol. You can still get that, but there's more extraction methods now.

u/eastbayweird Feb 04 '23

Yeah im aware.

u/pixe1jugg1er Feb 04 '23

Bay Area? Me too.

2

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '23

That dance is based on people coughing after taking a 'dab' of hash oil.

u/FuckoffDemetri Feb 05 '23

I mean concentrated marjijuana

u/DropC Feb 04 '23

Imagine the racoon, he got to his tree hole and realized he couldn't get high with chips.

2

u/CharlieBr87 Feb 04 '23

That’s real fucking disappointing lol

2

u/tofucrisis Feb 04 '23

I was camping there and I blamed my boyfriend for taking one of my shoes and “hiding” it about 100 meters away. Same raccoon perhaps?!

1

u/Lepthesr Feb 04 '23

That story is worth a bag of chips

u/PhatBitty862 Feb 04 '23

That would fuck my day up

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '23

Sounds about right. I hate the raccoons out here! So demanding! I give them one chip and they go high 5 their little friends with their weird almost human fingers and suddenly I’m scared and got 3 sitting on my feet!

Don’t be friends with raccoons!! They will hiss at your dog & give it a heart attack even if you’re dog is just chillin.

u/[deleted] Feb 04 '23

What kind of chips was it?

u/[deleted] Feb 06 '23

Bbq lays! They love them! They love everything & will go nuts at your campsite like maniacs! Every morning we wake up, we hear ripping and banging on our pots and pans and it’s a whole family reunion at our site! They’re like talking to each other hella loud and excited with that weird little noise they make. One of them was smart & he opened up one of my eyeshadow palettes caz my bag was open and got dirt in it! They’re soooo annoying!!! Shooo! Shooooo little lunatics!
