Look at that cat - Olive will KILL YOU if you make her try to poop in the human toilet.<br /><br />Also, the Orbitwheels do look cool. but it's the type of cool that I don't want to be in public, if you know what I mean.<br /><br />~CWAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13797643566097002635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8007219760463678844.post-55254256197622683272011-09-24T11:21:37.163-05:002011-09-24T11:21:37.163-05:001) with the shoes: the very fact that they're ...1) with the shoes: the very fact that they're BALListic? BALL. like the part of a body where sperms are made?<br /><br />also, i found the last statistic particularly funny:<br /><br />"4 out of 5 purchase a second pair within 3 months..... 87%" now, i've only taken a little math, but i'm pretty sure 4 out of 5 is already a statistic, thus negating the need for a second statistic in the form of a percentage -- especially when that percentage is not the correct percent ratio of 4/5 (80%). <br /><br />also, is that supposed to be a comforting stat -- that these shoes need to be rebought after just three months? my best pair of shoes, i've had for years. i guess the type of people that are going to buy the same shoes after 3 months are the same people who are going to be fooled into buying the shoes in the first place by a crappy skymall add.<br /><br />2) while the toilet training cat thing <i>is</i> really appealing (no more litter box!), i'm almost certain they could have found a cat that didn't look quite so... constipated? i mean, i've seen my cats go to the bathroom. they don't look pleasant, but they also don't look like the next activity on their agenda is to forcibly remove my soul. <br /><br />3) i sincerely want orbit wheels. i don't understand how they work, but the last time i was on a flight with skymall, i saw them, and thought that i wanted them.Brian Wilcoxonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00495581380902745646noreply@blogger.com
