I'd go to Mars to stay if they'd put me in charge of setting up the Mars Cat Colony.
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

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

Shit's all sorts of different now.
"Who Dat?" belongs to the NFL? Seriously?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The NFL has sent a cease-and-desist to stores in New Orleans selling merchandise with "Who Dat" on it. Because the NFL claims it's their trademark.
That's effed up.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I can think of quite a few people I'd nominate for this program.
Glenn Beck?
No!
We *tell* Beck we're sending him to Mars and then shoot him into the Sun!

Hairless cats probably work better in a space suit.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
"Who Dat?" belongs to the NFL? Seriously?
The hell? I am not familiar with this usage. Mostly, I think of "Who Dat" as the words preceding "Ninja?"

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The hell? I am not familiar with this usage.
It's been associated with the Saints as long as I can remember.

So they claim. Amazingly, they weren't rushing to enforce this until the Saints made it to the Superbowl. Because you know what will really endear you to the hearts of a city? Screwing over people who are trying to make a living after a massive catastrophe.

I assumed it was a takeoff of the Bengals' "Who Dey?" (Which makes me cringe every time some fool in black and orange bellows it.)

Nope. (thieving Cincinnatians, we hates them, precious)

When I first went to NOLA in (I think) 1987 the Saints had a (rare) decent team and that was the crowd's chant. I think they made the playoffs that year. Anyway, we were there when the Saints won a playoff game or made the playoffs and that was the chant all through the quarter.
So it goes back at least that far, and I think it might've originated that year.
