Scenario 1: Glue squirrel to ground. Hunter walks in circle around squirrel.
Hunter has gone around squirrel. Lesson: going around the squirrel is achieved by circumnavigating it.

Scenario 2: Glue squirrel to record player turn-table. Hunter stands still, squirrel rotates, hunter sees every side of squirrel.
Hunter has not gone around squirrel. Lesson: whether the hunter sees every side of the squirrel or not is not relevant to whether the hunter has gone around the squirrel.

Scenario 3: Glue squirrel to record player on super slow speed. Hunter walks a circle around the squirrel/player combo, as the squirrel rotates at the same rate.
Apply lessons from scenarios 1 and 2, hunter has circumnavigated the squirrel, seeing all sides is irrelevant, hunter has gone around the squirrel.

Scenario 4: the nut. Replace the turn-table with the tree. Conclusion the same as for scenario 3.

Scenario 5. The squirrel puts the lotion on its skin. The hunter gives it a beating with the hose anyway, then shoves it up his ass. Now the hunter has really gone AROUND the squirrel!
