Seriously now,

Dear People-who-manufacture-cat-toys:

You're job is to develop toys that will be used by cats. Therefore, said toys should be able to withstand swotting, pouncing, biting, scratching and general catlike play for a minimum of one month, preferrably six. Why is it that those balls with bells inside only seeem to last a day, three if it is lost under a couch.

It is a very simple concept, and I daresay an important one for you. Your business is making toys for cats. Why is it so difficult for you to create toys with the cats in mind? Why is it so hard to make a string that will not snap in half in one pounce? If the army can do it, Shirley you can (see hilarious films of 1980)too! Stop putting catnip in fucking champagne bottles and make some decent long-lasting toys already. Oh, and maybe you can make them out of socks? My cats love socks.

Thank you in advance for your timely attention to this matter,

wednes




Anyway, I'm off to write so I can finish NaNoWriMo before the site crashes for good...

And, talking to people at the shelter is making me want to sober up.

Sober up!

Okay, let me know when you've given up soft core porn!

;-)

A lot of toys are fucking dangerous too. Sharp things to swallow, strings to swallow or hang themselves with... :-P

I agree. They remind me of Happy Meal toys from mcDonalds here in the states. They are okay for a day or two, but once they break they expose all manner of hazzards.

"I'm serious, and don't call me Shirley".

That was on AMC a few nights ago....almost unedited too.

How many soft core porn poster addicts do you serve in that place? Maybe I know some of 'em.

Actually, if I don't stop and clear debt, I may be rock bottomed.

I saw that in the listing. I'm glad to know it's considered a classic now.

Ha.

Well, admitting you have a problem is the first step!
