Maybe it lives next to your house and it's used to you. Or were you not by your house? 

I hate people who refer to any living thing as "it". Say he, she, or, them!

 

DON'T REDUCE ANIMALS TO OBJECTS!

 

 

See, the newest item in my sig.

I totally agree...

But in Bug's case, "Your Majesty" is a little more accurate... lmao...

Your cat's name is Bug?

The cat who owned me before Boomer was named 'Possum. She's been gone (passed away) about four years now. Sometimes unique cats manage to get rather unique names which fits their personality. 'Possum sure did.

My cat Bug is actually short for Lovebug... but if her name is supposed to match her personality, perhaps "Swiffer" would be a better fit...

(this is seriously my loony cat in the morning)

Can I have your 80° heatwave? Though we call "sporadic periods of 80° weather" cold snaps here.

Aaaaaand this is exactly why I live in a place where we can call 80° a heat wave. :D I have no idea how I ever survived 18+ years in the desert...

I never saw a 90+ temp accurately where I’m at, tho I wouldn’t be surprised if we hit it. My house is in one of those extra-mild “microclimates” and according to my weather station it only topped the high 80’s. 

You can post from Imgur on mobile, but you have to use the direct .png link, then use the “insert other media” button, direct pasting won’t work. :rolleyes:

OMG... I'm cleaning today, and I just made the most amazing discovery... My cat, Bug, is NOT... repeat... NOT afraid of a vacuum cleaner!!!

She's just sitting there, watching me...

I've had cats all my life, but I think this is a first!!!

So I've seen a bunch of Tesla cars since moving to Norway (yeah apparently my parents have a thing with working in Scandinavia. First Sweden, then Finland, and now a small town near Oslo :D). In the past two weeks, I've seen eight. My next door neighbor has a Model S, and a few days ago I saw two identical grey S's right next to each other on the highway.

Needless to say, my approval rating of Norway has gone up with every sighting....  :D

Counting Teslas on road trips is fun. My record is over 100 in a single day. But you could probably easily beat that in just an hour of bay area rush hour traffic. How many Model 3's do you see in Norway? I remember when I almost never saw them, then they were everywhere practically overnight.

90? This is what my week looks like (I'm down by 35N though):

The one and only... the original... 

I do not think that I can come up with, nor would the moderators allow, words strong enough to express exactly how much I hate you right now, sir.

do they involve "badger," "mushroom," or "snake?"

No.  They are more like "[redacted]ing [redacted]er, [redacted] your [redacted] with a [redacted] [redacted] and a [redacted] [redacted]-[redacted] 45 degree twist [redacted] [redacted] [redacted]ing [redacted]er!  And twice on Tuesday!"

I have a trash compactor. Due to bears, I only take the trash outside on Monday. It's generally heavy, but I strong arm it. Today I added some frozen stuff I cleared out of the freezer, so it was extra heavy. It brushed my knee...

Broken bottle in trash tore a 1.5 cm hole in my knee (only a couple mm deep or so). I managed to get it to stop bleeding, but stopped by urgent care, anyway. Got a tetanus shot, and they put a nicer bandage on it, guess I closed it well enough (I was worried about it popping open due to location, otherwise I'd have ignored it).
