Murray C. shares a kitten getting a butt beat-down.
The cat article was very insightful. …I’m assuming.
I agreed with most of the points he made.
Such lovely linkies! Full of joy!
Cat blog post makes more sense than many an article I have seen on teh interwebz.
Dear kitten: you can’t stop the wagging. But thanks for trying.
Milo’s blog. I’m crying with laughter.
My cat lay on my laptop keyboard and managed to shrink the font to unreadable AND turn the monitor image upside down. There I was, trying to find out how to reverse the image holding my laptop upside down and using a magnifier to enlarge the print enough to read it. I managed it some how, and after that she just shrank or enlarged the print.
You, too! Upside down that is. I didn’t have to struggle with tiny print! My cat takes lots of screenshots. I didn’t even know I could do that on my laptop. I may compile a book.
When I use a touchscreen computer, my cats have been known to send emails with their butts. They can’t resist rubbing up against the screen.
Omg, I’m snorting with laughter reading your three’s comments. I have a draft email right now that deserves nothing less than to be sent by someone’s butt.
🤣🤣🤣
That’s the kind of thing that’s dramatically easier to fix if you have another computer to compare against. Or at least an internet connected device for googling. In college I randomly tested
–I have no idea what I was thinking–if Windows XP will let you set the colors for menu bars, window backgrounds, and text to the same color. The answer was yes. This was before I had a smartphone, and everyone in the dorm had left for a long weekend. Boy was that fun to fix.
On a different occasion a glitch set the “open with” application of multiple file types to adobe acrobat. One of the types was executables. “Hmm, guess I’ll google this.” “Adobe acrobat cannot open firefox.exe.” “HMMM” Same thing happened for things like regedit.
Point is that I can break a computer way worse than any cat. Or maybe that I’m really a cat? Whatever. Fear me.
My parents have a friend who is the poster boy for why people should need a license to have a computer. The reason he put a remote desktop program on my computer is because he didn’t want to drive 45 minutes to his house every time he screwed something up (even though his tech support did earn him dinner). He put it on my computer first to test it (though I’ll admit it has come in handy). And now he lives in Florida so my dad definitely can’t go to him.
If a cat can do this then I guess a monkey COULD type all the works of Shakespeare.
Cat blog is a mesmerizing read. Who knew they had such deep thoughts. Someone ought to tell the kitten that there’s no way to catch the tail, it’s been tried so many times by their owners and success rate is very low. And that tail is bigger than you!! Singing parrot should put out an album, sounds a lot like many metal bands I’ve listened to over the years.
Tico is a terrible singer – he sounds like an aspiring lounge act from the 50s. I was afraid he was going to break into O Sole Mio.
Everybody’s a critic …
😉
I’ve had strong feelings about popular music since elementary school. I struggle to believe that people who like music I find OBVIOUSLY deplorable can be perfectly nice and good human beings. I WAS joking about the parrot,uh, mostly (I cannot help feeling suspicious of him).
Hey, I’m a musician’s daughter, step-daughter, sister, and sister-in-law. I’ve had strong feelings about music my whole life. I’m inclined to give parrots a little wiggle-room, though. 🙂
Definitely. Probably led astray by a human with deplorable taste.
I loved Tico’s singing! What a hilarious birb.
I would like to gently boop the nose of the wombat joey, then pick her up for extreme cuddles.
Kitten tying to catch the dog’s tail is hilarious!
One of my kitties started signing me up for Facebook. In Korean!
I like how blogging cat got over the hissy-fit and was purring by the end.
