Ask Aunt Tabbytha

Dear Aunt Tabbytha: There’s this guy in my homeroom class who’s super cute and nice but he doesn’t seem to notice me. How can I get his attention? — signed, Name Withheld

Dear Ms. Withheld: While some so-called “modern” girls opt for a direct approach, the young lady of refinement cultivates an alluring air of mystery. A coy glance or a shy smile can intrigue a young gentleman, drawing him closer without giving away the game. Remember, subtlety is the key to romantic success.

HELLO I AM BEING SUBTLE AND I LIKE YOU OK I’LL TRY LATER BYE!!!

She’s definitely got a crush on him, Laura H.

    More like a crunch on him.

    A savage, impressive, ferocious, yet ultimately ineffective attack. Kitty needs some more practice.

    Maybe this is the cat equivalent of word vomiting on your crush?

    Not sure this’ll work on the guy I like…

      Don’t knock it ’til you try it! 😉

      Maybe it will work if first you feed HIM the catnip…

      I’d advise against it. This is a picture of Everything I Did Wrong and then Wondered Why it Didn’t Work.

        lol…I’ve hardly even seen him the past several weeks, anyway

    Advice to the lovelorn:
    Obviously the young lady is in the throes of passion and finds it difficult to be subtle. She should try a cold shower, then try again the subtle approach. Unless the young man in question is already terminally spooked and is unwilling to participate.
    Next time, the young lady should stay away from the catnip.

      Nip dialing; can you imagine?

    while she’s down there, she should also take a peek and see if there’s any point/future to this relationship. After a certain vet visit this may prove futile

    • Clairdelune June 21, 2018 / 12:51 pm

      LOL!!! That might explain the lack of interest…

    You guys are cracking me up!

    Did everybody hear the news about KoKo the sign-language gorilla? I’ve never forgotten the video of her with Robin Williams that was posted at the Old Ranch.

    • allein ? June 21, 2018 / 3:55 pm

      I saw that earlier. I sent the article to Mike (I’m sure I’m not the only one) and it includes the Robin Williams video.

        I did, too.

    • Blue Footed Booby June 21, 2018 / 7:53 pm

      My favorite is the story about her meeting Mr Rogers and taking off his shoes.

    Aaaaand we’ve got another winner! One of your historical best, Mike 🙂 🙂
    (must say the picture helps a lot)
