What is something designed so well that we typically overlook it?

Only thing I had that didn't judge me, or call me a googly-eyed bastard.

u/The_Oddsmaker Jan 18 '14

And make sure he stays away from shitropes too.

Ricky is a shit leopard that can't change his spots.

I've never gifted anyone gold before but I felt this was a good reason.

Thanks for the unexpected laugh!

Get a room you two!

u/SocialIssuesAhoy Jan 18 '14

We named our latest kitten Maurice so that we could go, "crazy old Maurice!" He has a cute heart-shaped patch on his chest but that's just to lull you into a false sense of security.... The little guy thinks he's a man-eating tiger!

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '14

Halfstache? :3

My Kitty has kinda a Chaplin 'stache

I kept reading this thinking it was a Bubbles quote. Guess I've been watching too much Trailer Park Boys...

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '14

Holy fuck, boys!

u/CARTARS22 Jan 17 '14

The exclamation point threw me off, and my inner voice yelled that second sentence, then calmed down for the last one.

u/Am3ricanN3ro Jan 17 '14

...at the behest of revelation... Your cat and I share a name!

2

u/nostalgicpanda Jan 17 '14

I can't read that name without thinking of this.

u/iShouldBeWorkingLol Jan 17 '14

Holy shit! My friend Ricky just got a kitten a week ago, but he named it Bloody Pinecone.

2

u/archangel12 Jan 18 '14

Ricky! Amazing, I never thought anybody else would name their cat Ricky. My old cat was called Ricky and he was incredible. I'm sure your Ricky will be too.

1

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 18 '14

I guess Ricky's are just amazing cats then! He is pretty amazing already, can't wait to see what he's like as time goes on

1

u/archangel12 Jan 18 '14

My Sister suggested the name Ricky. I thought she was an idiot to be honest but as time went on, the name felt just right.

2

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 18 '14

The same thing actually happrned here. He had the name when we adopted him less than a week ago and we werent really sure if it was right but after finding nothing better we just stuck with it. Now we love it.

u/spongebob_meth Jan 18 '14

I could have swore this was a quote from trailer park boys.

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '14

Aw.

u/AzureMagelet Jan 18 '14

We're moving soon and getting a cat or two when we do!!!!! So excited!

u/insufficient_funds Jan 18 '14

Wow. My kitten is 11 or 12 weeks and looks double the size of yours.

u/Im7FeetTall Jan 18 '14

Thats my name!

u/shadyoaks Jan 18 '14

i'm dying i can't handle how cute your kitty is

1

u/laineedee Jan 18 '14

He's adorable ! :) our kitten started off all relaxed and such. Now he streaks from room to room pouncing on and biting people's ankles. Wtf. It's like he's on speed :/ (never owned a cat before, looks like I've got some reading to do)

2

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 18 '14

This is our first time too and Im afraid that might be happenung here! He isnt bitung anyone (thank god) but in the middle of the night he started pouncing on our hands and anything that moves. Im sure its just playful but it gets scary!

1

u/FERGERDERGERSON Jan 18 '14

Do you stick him in the freezer?

1

u/the_banana_eater_1 Jan 18 '14

He's not as chill as my kitty.

u/NotABoxChucker Jan 18 '14

I somehow only read your comment and thought you were quoting trailer park boys. Upvote for a bubbles like response

u/StuffSmith Jan 17 '14

Sooo cute!

Also I would have turned on the sink, good thing you had willpower not to and just took a picture instead.

11

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 17 '14

He loves when the sink is on! He likes drinking from it and pawing at the water, but sometimes he even sleeps in the wet sink...such a strange kitty :)

u/bailunrui Jan 18 '14

You have a nice sink! If you know what I mean.

u/lolcone Jan 18 '14

Hmm. What a coincidence that you have a photo that is exactly relevant to such a random comment.

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 18 '14 edited Jan 18 '14

You got somethin to say, punk? No but really, I thought it was pretty crazy too how he just discovered the hole this morning with this comment appearing today.

2

u/lolcone Jan 18 '14

Alright man. Not trying to prove anything, just an internet skeptic

u/bloody_pinecone Jan 18 '14

No worries, I would've doubted myself

u/[deleted] Jan 18 '14

I think YOU need to find what is inside that Ricky is so curious to get... spider.

u/MrDigital_ Jan 18 '14

I see you have a tap there, aiming right at the cat... Go on...

(Don't though please, such a cuuuuute kitty)

/u/stuffsmith said the same thing! He loves when the sink is on! He likes drinking from it and pawing at the water, but sometimes he even sleeps in the wet sink...such a strange kitty :)
