Shit, now I think we might have been catching a monkey, too. Am confused.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
do you let him go if he hollers?
Now that you mention it, yes.
Rock paper scissors we learnt from a book -- a USian book. Left to our own devices it'd probably have been jacks, marbles, and shooting things at other things.

We made the tiger pay. Which now thinking about it and accidentally stepping on my cats' feet, is icky. Ah, childhood sullied.

monkey and puppy? wha?
My family was into variety. I'm sorta surprised there wasn't anything more exotic. Afterall, pimentos were lizard tongues, bedtime stories were about rabbits and badgers and aardvarks and hedgehogs.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Yeah. I'm thinking most livestock is not part of Team Happy. A magazine I worked on in college was filled with radical feminists who told me that dairy was a feminist issue since they were raping cows to keep them producing milk.
Sorry if I sounded so vehement in that first post. I actually saw the procedure and it freaked me out. But only the part about the guy reaching his entire arm inside the cow to guide the nozzle thingy. I try to buy organic and local but I don't always do that. So I pretty much figure I'm helping support the factory farm system for chickens and livestock. It doesn't always make me proud but I like to eat them.
Rock, Paper Scissors saved my marriage. DH and I use it to decide a lot of minor, pesky chores like dog walking and diaper changes. It's completely fair and there are no grudges over who does what when.

I love this. It should be a magazine article or the name of a rock band.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

We never had adult bulls on the farm (we almost always sold them as calves). I've never seen the nozzle thingie - the breeder guy would just hold the sperm (which was in some sort of capsule-thingie) in his hand and go to work. With the clear plastic glove that went to his shoulder, of course.

We had tigers too, although when you think about it, if you tried to catch a tiger by the toe, the tiger wouldn't be the one hollering.
