Which one are you referring to, U? The beech's predicament, or your predicament with respect to that beech?

Actually, I am afraid you are a little confused. I did not want to tell you, but since you have given me permission. . .you really meant to say birch predicament. People confuse these trees all the time.
The predicament for the birch tree is ice storms. Period.
As for your existential predicament, let me offer you this advice from Robert Frost: "One could do worse than be a swinger of birches."

Take a look at the list this is on. It's a randomly generated phrase. I didn't "mean" anything because it was artificially constructed by Wordie. Maybe the site was confused? ;-)
The goal is for you to come up with what you think it means. Not for me to tell you. If this is similar to an actual phrase, it's purely coincidental. :-P

joke, u, joke. I was adopting what I hoped was a comically ponderous tone. It is, after all, *your* list, however it was generated. And you invited us to play along. That was my move!
And I might add that I think the list is a great idea!

Aha! I get it! Just the same, the beech predicament is clearly the dilemma of trying to figure out what the beech predicament is. It's self-referential, you see.

Oh, and a tautology to boot. My working hypothesis is still that the Beech Predicament is a cosmic error of mis-generation. The real philosophical question is the famous Birch Predicament, also known as the Birch/Boy Quandry. BBQ for short.

I thought a beech predicament was whether you should wear your red swimsuit or the one with the polka dots?
