It's a bit one sided really, and not in my favour.

Leia cat is a genius.
And then you have my five family dogs, who couldn't detect that there was a stray cat lying on top of our washing machine.

Perhaps they're heightened senses could detect minute traces of detergents used around the washing machine, putting them off detecting the cutie cat?

I don't want to be that guy, but... "their senses"? and yeah, I think the dogs just haven't figured out how to deal with height and altitude. once the cat was on the floor, they spotted it right away. they just can't imagine cats levitating, so they didn't think to look up

I don't want to be that guy, but... "their senses"? But you are That Guy. Coming soon from Desperate Comics, That Guy Monthly. Cancelled after issue one as heroes, villains and supporting cast descend on his house with pitch forks and flaming torches, because no one likes a pedant. Said one source: Our spulling iz fine. Ask our leeder Cobie! In my favour, that sentence was originally something different. An actual error based on stupidity will be with you in a few posts. and yeah, I think the dogs just haven't figured out how to deal with height and altitude. once the cat was on the floor, they spotted it right away. they just can't imagine cats levitating, so they didn't think to look up Dogs Iz Smrt

No, no. It's flaming torches and normal pitchforks. It's no good trying to light your pitchfork. The metal bit isn't flammable, and you'll get burned if you light the handle you're holding. Threatening evil scientists/ thoths isn't nearly as effective if you're presenting them with some broken, smouldering farm implements.

Well, you seem like you have a lot of experience with that.
But I predict you will be quite surprised when the mob shows up at your place with flaming pitchforks...
Yes, it is indeed possible!
I've been making quite a profit supplying angry mobs with their instruments of torture.

Well, you seem like you have a lot of experience with that. One thing that makes sure you get to see more of the world, is being driven out of various bits of it. But I predict you will be quite surprised when the mob shows up at your place with flaming pitchforks... Surprised in a funny way. Yes, it is indeed possible! Oh, it's possible. Just not very useful. Farmer 1: We'll rid our selves of the evil one now! Farmer 2; Yes! Just as soon as we get these burns seen to, we'll drive him out! Farmer 1: You've only got until our recovery period is over evil one! Aaaargh! Farmer 2: I think that showed him... I've been making quite a profit supplying angry mobs with their instruments of torture. I wondered why all their equipment had the same logo in it.

It is a nice logo, but I think I should make it more low-key. And untraceable.

Autographing them all, as a stamp of quailty, might have to be revisited too.

Fight fiercely, Harvard fight, fight, fight! Demonstrate to them our skill Albeit they possess the might Nonetheless we have the will
How we shall celebrate our victory We shall invite the whole team up for tea (How jolly!) Hurl that spheroid down the field, and Fight, fight, fight!
Fight fiercely, Harvard fight, fight, fight! Impress them with our prowess, do! Oh, fellows, do not let the crimson down Be of stout heart and true Come on, chaps, fight for Harvard's glorious name Won't it be peachy if we win the game?
(Oh, goody!) Let's try not to injure them, but Fight, fight, fight! (Let's not be rough though) And do fight fiercely! Fight, fight, fight!
Big Dog! Big Dog! Bow Wow Wow!

That song was written by Tom Lehrer. He also wrote thi little ditty about the Boston Subwy
H is for my alma mater, Harvard C is Central, next stop on the line K is for the cozy Kendall station C is Charles that overlooks the brine P is Park Str- Pahk Street, busy Boston center W is Washington, you see
Put them all together, they spell: "HCKC-PW!" Which is just about what Boston means to me!
Although now, the Washington Station is called Downtown Crossing.

The Red line of the MBTA used to end at Harvard station. In the 1980s, the line was extended to Alewife (3 new stations stops were added) and a new Harvard station was built. When travelling from Harvard into Boston, you can see the old Harvard station through the window of the train.

I'm trying to remember which line we took in Boston. I think it was Green or Blue, but not Red.

I picked you guys up on the Blue line and then we transferred to the Green line. The blue line is blue because it goes underwater. The Green line is green because of all the parks it passes. The Red line is red for Harvard (aka crimson) The orange line is orange because I do not know.

White Lines is a song warning against drug addiction,the crooks behind supplying drugs and how the system treats them.

Blurred Lines is a song sung in such a pretentious falsetto and with such a nauseating music video that I try to pretend it does not exist
