Woman Discovers Local 'Bo' Is Actually Just A Slightly-Larger-Than-Average Squirrel
AITA for losing my mind after a so-called "local legend" turned out to be a well-fed rodent? My town's been hyping up this mythical creature named "Bo" for years—said to be a giant, mysterious beast in the woods. People film blurry videos, write Facebook posts, the whole nine yards. I finally saw it yesterday. It was a squirrel. Just a fat, unbothered squirrel with a weird tuft of fur, eating a discarded bag of chips. TL;DR: "Bo" is not a cryptid, just a local chonker getting therapy-levels of attention. The mayor is now trying to spin it as a "beloved community mascot." I’m moving to a city with actual bears.
