A simple brain excercise
« on: August 24, 2007, 04:47:43 PM »
Picture a cat.

Now, picture a ladder.

Now, picture an imaginary thing called a "catladder." What does it look like?

Imagining things like this is good for activating your pre-frontal cortex!

I picture two ladders, one is a ladder that can be climbed by cats, the other is a ladder that is constructed from cats, does that make me a sick person?

Yeah. I mean, picture a cat. Then picture a bus. Then picture a cat bus.

The hell? For some reason that cat-bus rings a bell, despite the fact I have no idea who that dude is or what that movie is.

Catbus is awesome.  I pictured a ladder made out of cats.

A simple banning cannot stop the unstoppable cattank.

Anywhoo, this discussion reminds me of a conversation I'll bring up with people every so often.

What is an "ass hat"?  Is it a hat you wear on your ass or is it a hat you wear on your head that is shaped like a hat?  Or is it simply my father-in-law?

The giant, disembodied head of Dr. K. keeps appearing on my TV and telling me to buy Brain Age Squared, but I haven't, yet.

Anyway, I thought of a wooden ladder that had an adorable, decorative cat head, which was attached to the underside of the topmost step.

My Neighbor Totoro is a beautiful film, and I recommend that you rent it (or one of Miyazaki's other masterpieces) as soon as possible.

Yeah, that was it. I have no idea when I saw that movie, though, so I'm still a bit freaked out.

I did see bits of that "Spirited Away". The art was incredible, but the movie didn't really interest me. Just not my kind of movie.

While the music is way more awesome, I find catjet is really a cat riding a jet, rather than a jet of cat.  Cattank wins for combining cat and tank with flawless hybridization, which has only been seen by catbus and plain 'ole cat.

Dude!  I was reading an article earlier about how Australia has these big ol' huge feral cats (or wild versions of domesticated cats).  Like "Large Dog" size cats.  And I'm not talking about something like a panther or some crazy crap... apparently, they've done DNA testing and have found that these Large Kitties are actually the exact same species as domesticated cats.

Pretty soon, Australia will have cats the size of ponies.  That would be so frickin' cool.

If that's true that means these large cats can actually be domesticated... wow!
