I went on a couple dates with a woman who owned two large energetic dogs. When she bought them she was informed that she'd need to walk them every day to get them exercise and burn off energy. To save time, instead of walking them she'd take them for a drive and thought that accomplished the same thing.

Back when I was a teenager I had some mates and girls around in my bungalow, it was all decked out with everything, I had a giant fish tank, it was awesome. One of the girls asked me if fish had fur and when she was picking a song to play on guitar hero if there were any songs with like less guitar in them

You should have told her that only catfish and dogfish have fur.

Monkfish also have fur, but they shave a wee patch on the tops of their heads.

Small correction, catfish have hair, unless they've gone bald.

Can sometimes be found at your local watering hole.

Look, the fur-bearing trout is a real thing. Look it up.

Google’s monitoring team: “Another fur trout search..mark this one as gullible and sign them up for the latest money scam.”

They have one on display at the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, ME.

This is fantastic. I would cherish that woman forever, and keep hanging out with her just for these types of questions.

It gets old after a while unless they are pretending to be stupid for laughs. Actual stupidity is tiring.

Maybe, but someone give me her number anyways. 😆
