If Scrat can get his acorn, so can you.

Nuts before thots.
*
Making his first appearance in "Ice Age" back in 2002, Scrat the saber-tooth squirrel's frutiless 20-year long pursuit of the almighty acorn is perhaps one of the great tragicomic tales of our time, only equaled by that of the Trix Rabbit's endless quest for Trix.
Interestingly, there is a short featuring Scrat simply titled "The End" posted on April 13th, 2022. It's little over half a minute long and it shows him finally enjoying an acorn without anything getting in his way. Supposedly, it's official and was made in 2021 by Blue Sky Studios shortly before its closure, but its legitimacy is disputed. Even so, there are no doubt those who want to believe the squirrel finally got his nut, despite it seeming like a corny conclusion.

Happy Pocky Day! What's pocky? A Japanese sweet snack that looks like a thin stick with glazing. What's Pocky Day? A holiday made up to sell more pocky, celebrated since 1999 on November 11th. No, really. That's the origin, and apparently it actually has a memorial day status in Japan. Why November the 11th in particular? Becuase 11/11 looks like a bunch of pocky sticks strewn about. Yes, really.
Pocky coatings are usually chocolate, strawberry, or matcha cream, but of course you can add nuts to practically anything, and this is no exception. The most common nutty pocky variants are almonds and peanut butter.

For those unfamiliar with the Plants vs. Zombies franchise, the title is pretty self-explanatory. It's a mobile game where you're trying to protect your house from zombies, using plants.
And Wall-Nut is one of those plants. As their name suggests, their only purpose is to be an obstacle that delays the zombies' advance. Their high health helps them achieve that, and they stand wall and proud even with zombies gnawing at them constantly. You may think that would bother them, but thankfully they got thick skin (well, thick rind at any rate).

When I think of pecans, I usually think of pies. The great thing about nuts however is their culinary flexibility. What makes these nuts so delightfully devilish, Seymour? Their spiciness. Yeah, they're another type of beer nuts. While preparation methods can very, here's one way to do it: https://www.food.com/recipe/deviled-pecans-neiman-marcus-270156

Well, white people do like to raise armies of the undead when it gets cold outside. You might think that's just profiling, but it's true.

If you remember Happy Tree Friends, your childhood was awesome(ly messed up), and you had unsupervised internet access. If you don't, well, let's just say you're better off.
As for Nutty, despite his name and the fact that he's a squirrel, he's more obsessed with sweets than he is with nuts. I suppose that does make him nuts for sugary stuff.

Within the meme community we remember two dates: the 21st night of September, and the 5th of Novemeber. 'Guess memers don't have much headspace.
Speaking of remembering, I did a V for Vendetta a few years back. It kind of amazing (and sad) how the some of the bleak themes present in the the story of V still apply today: https://m.funsubstance.com/fun/598586/nostalgiavember-day-5-v-for-vendetta/

I feel the need to specify that you shouldn't eat metal nuts. Then again, I guess only people who have a screw loose would even consider it.

I guess some of them do resemble frogs, if you squint. But I don't post frogs in November anyway.
