    B_B, I'm using you to see if indented replies are set now.

    Great cat vid!
    Here's another one - WAY funny, especially if you're stoned.

    See, I still kind of like the indents, makes me feel more like I'm having a conversation.

    indents are good!
  • mirth · 1 year ago
    "Why I eyes ya" hahahaha

    I like the indents, John, except that when we used it before I had to scroll forever to see new comments.

    But, change is good. :)

    "The cat does not offer services. The cat offers itself. Of course he wants care and shelter. You don't buy love for nothing. Like all pure creatures, cats are practical."

    Zoey looks like Max Star, who lives with me, my lover and Samantha Star. Max and Samantha live in the Cat Condo in my living room, but share my computer with me.

    As an engineer, I was amused and horrified at how accurate the presentation was, it's exactly the way an engineer would approach the problem.

    As a dog lover, I'm still not impressed on the whole cat thing. They seem like just-slightly-better-than-a-nice-fur-pillow food consuming critters. Dogs give love, cats give attitude.

    Zen-etc.,

    You have to work a little harder for cat love, they don't drool all over you just because you're a human. Cats know that love has to be earned, and when you do, it's worth it.

    I dunno...I have a siamese I can't get to stay out of my lap.
  • Webster · 1 year ago
    I have two siamese who fight over who gets to sit in my lap. As I said earlier: Cats rule!

    I love both dogs and cats for their own traits (dogs for their loyalty and cats for their spunk).

    The video was great and I passed it along to all the cat lovers in my family. I also sent them the one with the talking cat, though I don't think that cat was very happy with the camera (leads me to believe its not anywhere near the first time he's been prodded to "talk").

    Anyways, STAY AWAY from the "Devil Kitty" video. That had to be the worst Youtube video about cats that I've seen (and since I only saw 3, its not saying much...but it really is a very disturbing video to listen to and watch).

    Those engineers seem quite nice. And they give their cats tuna! I approve this video.

    Ok, not a cat, but I dare you not to laugh at this:
