Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't want to be non-balanced and not cover the cute cat perspective.

First of all, it is well established that you are unbalanced.

Second of all, there is seriously no need to try to balance the scales with more cats. The internet is made entirely of cats. Every byte is a kitten and every pixel a tabby. They are stacked and LOLed and cutely overloaded and referred to as furbabies and iconed out the ass like xmas tinsel (out the ass of a cat).

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

Wait, you can find cat pictures on the internet?

Not anymore. They've all been absorbed into one great cat AI running sub-programs under the code.

Ooh. If you go on YouTube and search for 'dog', you get 234,000 videos. 'Cat' only gets you 217,000.

Google will give you 297,000,000 dog images and 427,000,000 cat images. Apparently a static cat is better than a static dog, but a dog is motion is better than a cat in motion.

I think the difference is accounted for almost entirely by the bulldog who skateboards.

Yeah, good point. That and the narcoleptic puppy.

Actually on the second Puppy Bowl I thought the kitten halftime was better. But they stopped dropping crap on their heads this year, so the kittens were much less festive.

so the kittens were much less festive

I'm hoping this wasn't where you got the tinsel idea.

Huh. There's more than one famous internet narcoleptic puppy: [link]

This one has it worse. It starts out funny like any narcoleptic puppy video should, but just gets kinda' sad.

Tinsel enemas for everyone! It'll put a shine in your ass and a gleam in your eye!
