Our cow cat is obsessed with licking us, too. We thought it was because he was likely separated from his mother too young, but maybe it's also a cow cat thing. :)

Thanks! He sure thinks so! He has no idea that he could possibly look ridiculous, ever. Even when we call him "cow cat" as he falls off the couch or something. :p

Drat. Figured as much.

I love them. But it would be much more in character to have Scully holding a gun. And Mulder the flashlight, if they have to be different.

I almost can't believe your Klover fits in a sink, but Weegies can be surprisingly compact when they want to be. She is lovely. Our pumpkin/ginger and white Weegie is the only one I've ever met, so it is so cool to see all the different colors and patterns they are, unlike lots of other breeds.

Absolutely. And that's one reason why people who are allergic or otherwise not into a cat at a home they're visiting are sure to get the most attention from the cat.

Aaand I just had to go downstairs to see what that thumpy-clanging noise was. The little bastard diva cat pushed the dish-drain rack into the sink for unfathomable reasons. That's a new one.

One of ours is mostly Norwegian Forest, and he is a big doof. He has a lot of mannerisms that are classicly dog like, and I wonder if some of that is due to his long stretch in a shelter before we adopted him. In other ways, he is super Weegie cat (loves water, cold drafts, and me grooming his ruff). He is shy of…

Picard, from the end of ST:TNG "Starship Mine" always has me hyperventilating from snickers.

Hey, you never know who's Clark Kent-ing it underneath that chain store apron!

Ichabod voice: "Of course I know about Dungeons and Dragons. Benjamin Franklin invented it. Alas, General Washington was truly a terrible DM."

I want Franklinstein to just show up randomly, having wandered into civilization and made a life for himself, done with what he was raised to do. A glimpse of him being innocuous and with an altruistic bent, like working in a soup kitchen, or being a crossing guard.

Here, this might come in handy.

Let Mi-Go

I'm 37, have some bright white hairs now. Clearly, we are secret Targaryens. And I totally leave mine in because it looks kinda cool. I am wondering how they'll take the dye next time I break out the pink, though.

"Wildcard, bitches!"

Okay, that is a fantastic spin. I will work that into my next "no thank you" conversation with persistent missionaries/evangelicals. It ties in well with my Mike Carey Lucifer series views/arguments, which I notably incorporated into some especially persistent ones who wouldn't leave me alone and for some reason kept…

Ah, yes, the Four Horsemen of the Holidaypocalypse

"Oh my god, they killed Batman!" "You bastards!"

I think pretty much the same thing that happens to anyone who meets Squirrel Girl: love or a beat-down.
