You know, Sean, even when they fluff up their fur they are quite a bit smaller than you.
SHUT UP! He was all intimidating and stuf.. SHUT UP!
Plus, I was mostly naked at the time, because I like to skivvie about in my skivvies, too. t /tmi And he's pointy on five of his six ends.! He could have done something to my precious, delicate skin!
SHUT UP!
My cat is currently too hot for nefarious plots. He's been either flat on the floor or under my bed for the past couple of days.
Ours is just so blissfully happy to see us, what with us having gone on TWO four-day long trips in the last two weeks, all he wants to do is lie either directly in front of the front door, or on top of us, to prevent us from leaving again. It's adorable.
When we just had one cat, we would make him chase the laser pointer until he was exhausted.
We play "fetch the mouse." He has a whole collection of fuzzy mouse toys, and likes to chase after them when they're thrown, bring them back, and wait for us to throw them again. This game is made even more hilarious for all involved by our hardwood floors and slidey rugs.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I got ahold of him. He's on the road and can post in about four hours. Is ahold a word?

The best idiot book I've ever owned.
It might be a bit of a stretch to call it a philosophy book though.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Is ahold a word?
If it isn't, and we get all the publishy Buffistas to use it in their publishy goods, we can send off all of the instances to erinaceous and MAKE IT A WORD.
Such is our power.
Such is the way of Buffistas.
Amen.
