This has been mentioned before, but I think it needs to be said again.

Ant-Man has "Ants! Ants! Ants!".
Deadpool has "Whales! Whales! Whales!".

Squirrel Girl needs to have "Squirrels! Squirrels! Squirrels!".

"Furry Friends" is not what I think of when I think of being attacked by a squirrel. Have you ever been attacked by a squirrel? It's terrifying. More terrifying than this:

Now imagine being attacked by a pack of them. I think that warrants the name change.

    Why did you include a 'no' option in this poll?!?

    Gotta say I was nervous clicking this thread. I thought it was going to be anti-furry rhetoric or something.
    But then I saw who posted it and got a little optimistic.

    Having read it...yeah, I agree. "Squirrels! Squirrels! Squirrels!" would be better, I think =)

    Also....


    Bird Strike should be "Birds!Birds!Birds!

    and

    Duck Duck Loose should be "Ducks!Ducks!Ducks!"

    Balanced poll options are required regardless of relevance.

    I'd be okay if the name was changed to Muchas Ardillas!, but I do feel like "Furry Friends" goes very well with "Nuts from above" for some reason.
    Confound these wretched rodents! would also be acceptable.

    Also, I read a lot of the suggestions in this thread to this Little tune. Must be because I Heard it on the radio earlier today.

    So long as it comes with a caveat that Dazzler will never, not once, appear in the game.

    Sold.

    It's funny you should ask. A woman wearing a sweatshirt for my college alma mater came into my workplace today, and I was reminded that the older I get, the fewer definitive events my college experience gets boiled down to. . . and one of those events was being bit by a squirrel. Rabies shots, fears of bubonic plague, beer pong. . . good times.

    Anyway, I voted yes.

    Yeah! And "I am Groot" should be "Groot, Groot, Groot!"... okay nevermind icon_lol.gif

    But for the fact that Rocket's there with him, I think all three powers would have to be "I Am Groot", just with different punctuation....

    Also, if you (generic you, not you Punisher) did not vote for option #3 in this poll, you may not actually be human. Please give my regards to your robot overlords.

    I had a squirrel chase me down a street once. Pretty sure it was rabid as it was in full on honey badger mode and squirrels don't tend to attack anything bigger than itself.

    Why hasn't this post been moved to suggestions and feedback yet? Plenty of people will see it there.

    Meh. I never liked Motley Crue. Sorry.

    (I voted "Are you High?" because I liked that option.)

    What if we replaced the squirrels with a bunch of Life-Model Decoys for Nick Fury, and changed the power's name to "Fury Friends"?
