Such realistic fur!
Those…uh…MANDIBLES…are a lot longer and hairier than I feel comfortable with. Perhaps I shall use an extension device to deposit my leftovers.
Shades of Aragog.
And WHY is one of the side ads offering me an “egg sitter” support cushion?!
Oh, god, now I can’t unsee that.
L-l-l-look at you, hoo-man: a PATHetic c-c-creature of clawless toes, panting and sweating as you run on your treadmill. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal feli-I mean machine?
It occurs to me I should explain the reference: it’s a monologue by Shodan, a rogue AI from System Shock 2, a PC game released in 1998.
Did you start gaming as a Baby Booby? 1998 wasn’t yesterday.
I’ve been gaming since I was a booblet, yeah, but I actually didn’t get around to playing SS2 until the aughts, when I was in college. It still blew me away and made me flail my mouse around on my desk. Then I got my roommate to play it and he did the same.
Actually, I’m pretty sure that line came from the original System Shock, and they threw it into the intro for the sequel since it was so iconic.
I couldn’t remember and I made that post at work where I have no sound and random images don’t load. I never got too far in the first. The controls have…aged poorly. I’m looking forward to the remake, though.
Take me to your larder / I mean leader.
OMG, Gigi! I almost choke on a sip of tea! 😀

HAHAHAHA!!! 😀 😀 😀
Nicely done, Gigi.
