So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

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

So what does it mean if I hit my thumb with a hammer and shout "Motherfucker!"?

You want to blame a motherfucker? Like, say, Tino?

OK, next time I hit my thumb with a hammer, I'm yelling "Tino!"

hip deep in pie

I have a friend whose cat howls at night. He just gets lonely when people are asleep.

And Pico used to wake me up with cries at night when he hunted toys. He shut up once I acknowledged him. This often led to me to trying placate him without having to get up, and yelling down the stairs, half asleep, "Very good Pico. You are a brave kitty."

“Not dead yet!”

Tino's God?

No. Just a god. An evil one.

He must be one of the old school vengeful ones.

Yeah. Maybe he was Cthulhu's sidekick.

eta: Will Cthulhu smite me because I spelled His name wrong?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Next time I hit my thumb with a hammer I'm shouting "Cthulu!"

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Will Cthulhu smite me because I spelled His name wrong?

I don't think he needs that much of an excuse.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

My cat is a 4am yowler. Mostly what he wants is a scritch -- and he settles down. He likes to be noticed when he is awake. I don't hear it every night any more, so I suspect he only does it if he knows we are awake. My guesses, the cat has been getting positive attention while yowling or there are other animals outside or his food bowl is empty.

happy birthday Teppy

and good for mac!!!!

From Wikipedia:

Cthulhu has also been spelled as Tulu, Clulu, Clooloo, Cthulu, Cighulu, Cathulu, Kutulu, Q’thulu, Ktulu, Kthulhut, Kulhu, Thu Thu,[2] and in many other ways.

Jesus Christ! Just pick one, dude!

Of course, His excuse is probably that it's from an alien language, with no exact corresponding English spelling....
