I bet it was a nice cat, too.

The nice one always die young. The insane, power hungry pure evil ones live forever.



I'm betting you're just suffering from selection bias.

I mean, can you really make a judgement about how long the nice .01% of cats live?

(It's like with lawyers, how 98% give the other 2% a bad name...)
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

I think we have "the other 2%" right here on APS!
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

I've got a chest freezer that would be plenty big enough if it was empty.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I'm reminded that dogs have masters. Cats have staff.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I LOL'd at that one.  People are looking at me like I'm weird or something.

There's an old story about a couple guys stopping to pick up a piece of abandoned luggage by the roadside.

About a half mile later, the car stops again and two men jump out - followed by a bobcat.

The light goes out when the fridge door is closed.
I have this on good authority, going back some decades now.

Single mom,  with 2 year old boy throwing a "hissy fit" and mom, tosses boy into fridge to "cool him down".

First off, this will "cool a boy down". Second the boy informs mom the light does go off when the door is closed.

Probably not the best parenting skills, still this was before life got too PC.

He turned out all right...

Gee... I wonder which dog that was...

Welcome to our newest spammer.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.
