Awesome link! Thank you!
"Teaching a cat to do a trick is difficult, though I’ve found that if you have plenty of treats, patience, and a clicker. You’ll be successful."
this cat trainer is obviously lulling the kitty into submission with trick grammar.
I posted to that one actually. Here's the entirety of my post (remember, I am mommy to three cats):
"Hee hee. Silly people. Cats aren't dogs."
I mean, hello.
Charles Mingus trained his cat to use the toilet.
Cats train the owner, not the other way around.
Mine have me moving a plastic stick across the floor for their amusement more often than I would like to admit.
But I like the Risk strategy one. Lesson: Asia = quagmire.
On the other hand, if we follow the Risk model, Australia has the ability to conquer the world at will with it's teeming hordes. Bloody wallabies.
"You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But only slightly less well known is this: 'Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!'"
*laughs maniacally*
*expires*
"In the 30s, Hitler, Czechoslovakia, Poland, France, World War II -- the Russian front, not a good idea! Hitler never played Risk when he was a kid! Cause you know, playing Risk, you could never hold on to Asia. That Asian-Eastern European area, you could never hold it, could you? Seven extra men at the beginning of every go, but you couldn't f**king hold it!"
(My favourite comedian, Eddie Izzard)
And Charles Mingus would never make stuff up, would he?
(Love the music, but geez, what an automythologiser!)
Okay, I think I need to do some work before lunch here. And I'm sure now other people are, well, okay, I don't know what the rest of you monkeys are doing. But I mean, really, I see where nick was coming from with feeling somewhat lonely at this similar point.
The lonelieness of a long distance runner you might say.
I wouldn't say it, but you might.
We need each other. Dammit BearGuy, I'm gonna cry.
