No, Pudge controls the weather.
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Ah ha! So it's the . . . is Iron Man a Democrat or Republican? I can't remember any political leanings from my old comic books. He was an alcoholic, but that doesn't really narrow it down.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

What could possibly go wrong? Scientists Race to Create Cat-Level Artificial Brain
Pentagon-backed scientists aim to create a human-like machine, at some point. But they are starting out with the goal of crafting artificial intelligence on the level of a cat's brain. Still there are vast challenges.
If they get far enough, however, one scientist says that they could theoretically achieve feline intelligence with a mouse-sized artificial brain and an even smaller body.
That's because bigger brains by themselves don't necessarily mean greater intelligence or more complex behavior - for instance, cats show more smarts than cows despite having a feline brain 10 times smaller than a bovine brain. What might really matter is that humans and some other species have bigger brains for their body size.
"If they're trying to get cat-level behavior, there's no necessary reason to go for a cat-level brain unless they need a cat-level body of some kind," said Mark Changizi, a neurobiologist at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y.

Probably subcontracted by Cyberdyne.

I dunno - I think at some point, intelligent cats from the future will travel back in time to set up CyberCat, a corporation to compete with Cyberdyne. So instead of a future where humans are hunted by Cyberdyne terminators, we'll have a future where we'll be enslaved by intelligent robotic cats. Riding Roombas.
