I look more rad than Lutheranism

Okay, how fucking hard is it? A friend of mine -- intelligent, resourceful -- posted in LJ that he needs to find a low-cost place to get his cat spayed, because his current vet is quoting $250, and he's going through a divorce and can't afford that. Which I sympathize with.

He concludes his post with, "If I can't find something less expensive, there's going to be one more stray on the streets."

Okay, 1: seriously? You'd throw the cat out, to get knocked up repeatedly, rather than take it to the pound? And much more importantly, 2: YOU CAN'T FUCKING USE GOOGLE?!? It took me about 2 minutes to google the phrase "low-cost spay neuter cincinnati" and find 1 clinic that spays for $50 and another that spays for $35. TWO MINUTES.

You can't use Google your own damn self? (I said in my comment to his post, "If that doesn't work, I just googled 'low-cost spay neuter cincinnati'.")

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Steph, I would be way more passive-aggressive about it.

Because books.

That's awesome, Tom. (The Google thing *and* the therapy news!)

I can't believe he actually said "there will be one more stray on the streets," Tep. That's just ... really?

Ugh, Steph. HULK SMASH. That shit ain't right, on many levels.

I am taking a mental health day and watching Leverage streaming in via Netflix- OMG THIS SHOW IS AWESOME.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

hee, Tom,

Wow, I guess he is stressed out and scattered. Why not just keep the cat inside for a while. If things are so crazy it may not be the best time to try and deal with getting the cat fixed.

I can understand not having it in you to deal with having a pet, but don't just let it go! Bring it to the damn pound!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, god, Tom, that site is brilliant.

Steph, that's insane. I get asking for info instead of googling it--I've done that enough times myself. But the throwing the cat out like trash ultimatum? Heinous. And not a cute joke, if he was joking.

I'll google almost anything except medical stuff. Then I try to get someone to google for me and then point me to a site that won't scare the crud outta me.
