In Hollywood, any time there's an evil villain taking hostages, there's usually some poor ex-cop in the back room who rises to the occasion and kicks the villain's ass, while all the while the bumbling fools from the FBI spend the entire day doing paperwork. Well, we're here to test that myth. We barely had time to build a potato gun (suitably modified to shoot cylindrical sections of cantaloupe from the fruit tray) by the time the SWAT team had showed up and finished the job for us. After the break, we'll talk about the myth of the evil villain with plans for global extermination, but let's call that first myth...

Also, in Hollywood, evil masterminds with dreams of exterminating most of humanity... well, they tend to have something they demand in return, some sort of motivational factor, be it power, money, the lulz, or something as simple as the desire for us to air an episode consisting of nothing but a naked Kari Byron doing jumping jacks. Well, we didn't get that kind of villain. Instead, we got this guy.

This guy went postal for, and we quote, "The Lions, Tigers, Giraffes, Elephants, Froggies, Turtles, Apes, Raccoons, Beetles, Ants, Sharks, Bears...

...and, of course, the Squirrels."
Again, I think we can conclude this episode with a clear call of:

After the break, Mike's going back in there to help clean up what the SWAT team left behind.

"Yippie-ki-yay, Maverick?"
Hey, I've heard worse bowdlerizations on network TV.
Back in my day, we had the Unabomber. He was a homicidal eco-nut, but unlike this guy, at least he was articulate :)

I love Mythbusters,
I love another beer,
I love the dirty jobs,
There's nothing more to fear!
Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada!
I love the headshot,
I love the SWAT team,
I love the Internet,
I found another meme!

I love (REDACTED),
It's where the stupid whirls,
The image macros,
And, of course, the squirrels!
Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada, Boom-de-yada...

The Squirrel was Hef's initial design in 1953. Then he wanted to do Hefner's Heifers. Nobody took much notice. So he changed it to Playboy Bunny. Cute and cuddly girl next-door!
