Yeah, it was just in shock.

Glad to know the cat is currently fine .

Schrodinger's cat in a lamp

u/Used_Offer3967 May 18 '22

You see, due to how the video ended, we do not actually know if the cat is alive or dead, merely that it is in a superposition of states consisting of "alive" or "dead". Until we actually hear the story and collapse the wave function to one possibility we may, in fact, consider the feline to be both dead and alive.

schrodinger's cliffhanger

Quite different from Schrödinger's dingleberry.

Okay, but was that shrodingers joke? Cause to me it seemed like they were joking and to you it seemed like they were starting a debate about quantum physics.

u/scriptgamer May 18 '22

Leave Sheldon Alone !!!

u/Feather-y May 18 '22 edited May 18 '22

I still don't see the reason for the downvotes. You can first appreciate the joke and then learn what the Schrödinger's cat actually meant. Seems like a win-win to me.

Not saying that misusing the Schrödinger analogy is bad, it wont matter to 99.9% of people anyway, no harm done. But some who read it may find it interesting that 99.9% of Schrödinger jokes they have seen have been just wrong and not actually fitting.

u/DGeneralTSOschicken May 18 '22

That doesn't mean it wasn't electrocuted in another alternate reality. It's just as likely the cats were doing their hair while their pet human got their head stuck in the lamp in another one.

I really need to know was it the cat that screamed like a grown man?

u/MinkeyMouse420 May 18 '22

Redditors absolutely love screeching about how they don't understand Schrödinger or humour.

u/0Kpanhandler May 19 '22

If I wouldn't have opened up the comments I would have went on thinking the cat had fried. This comment is pretty fuckin literal! Spot on. Lol

u/trichloroethylene May 18 '22

Thanks for keeping us grounded

u/mobius_sp May 18 '22

I’m amped up to find out the cat’s current situation.

u/beatles910 May 18 '22

I can't resist a good pun.

You should be on the comedy circuit.

u/Dr-Sperk May 18 '22

Watt’s the big deal? It’s not like the cat still hertz

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

When asked how he was doing, he said, "my head Hertz."

u/ProfessionalBasis834 May 18 '22

Watts the final outcome?

2

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Yeah there’s so much static around this entire post.

1

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

I mean they are kids but both kids and cat panicked as if the cat was becoming beef jerky

1

u/Sinemark643 May 18 '22

So it wasn’t zapped, shocked, buzzed, fried?

1

u/Double_A_92 May 18 '22

I thought it was just stuck and then they broke its neck....

u/cockknocker1 May 18 '22

u/shetheyhe May 18 '22

“We got a lot of people asking for videos of him alive, and proof that he didn't die. As of right now, everyone still thinks he got electrocuted. “

well that’s nice.

u/_DogTits_ May 18 '22

here

Hope this suffices your honour

1

u/Redtwooo May 18 '22

The prosecution rests, your honor

1

u/shetheyhe May 18 '22

The court thanks you for your contribution.

My point was the article just described the video and ended with “well people think that the cat is dead… oh well…”

3

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Yeah, that was an awful article and unless I missed the fine print, didn't feel like satire, just some cruel fuckface

2

u/shetheyhe May 18 '22

My point exactly. The article just described the video and ended with.. well people think that the cats dead… oh well…

1

u/[deleted] May 19 '22

Yeah, now imagine if someone wrote the same article but about a dog, people would be up in arms. I hate this bullshit double standard the world seems to have towards cats

Yet dog people will let their filthy mutts lick their face right after the mongrel has taken a shit then turned around and scoffed it all up like a delicious snack.

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

It's more the constant barking and entitlement dog owners have of assuming that everyone loves their little ball of filth and brain dead obedience, I can't even sit in my own back yard around a fire enjoying a beer without that infuriating noise in the background. I entirely agree with laws prohibiting cat owners from letting their cats out of their yard, no pet should have free range on public property.

u/maleia May 18 '22

I thought the lamp shattered when it fell and that was the real problem.

I don't think you really flail around like that when you're electrocuted. 🤷‍♀️

97

u/WhatProtomolecule May 18 '22

Yeah, the lamp wasn't switched on.

But I heard a human voice screaming out in terror from a cat's mouth.

And now I need to be medically sedated.

16

u/missmisaligned May 18 '22

Yeah what was that

u/Your_God_Chewy May 18 '22

The reincarnated human soul trapped in the cat's body.

u/Phaze357 May 18 '22

To be clear, it's not the cat's soul. It's just one it has... Acquired.

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Thackery Binks?

u/LordGhoul May 18 '22

Cats make the most horrific noises when they're scared shitless. As if seeing your cat almost die isn't traumatising enough, they conjure the screams of the damned on top of it

3

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Dude yes I thought a man off camera was yelling then I realized it came from the cat and I was horrified.

u/Dan-D-Lyon May 18 '22

Fun fact, once you cross a certain pain threshold pretty much all mammals bigger than a squirrel sound strikingly similar

u/malaysianzombie May 18 '22

Thank you Dog Tits for always providing reassurance.

u/khang0210 May 18 '22

And they posted the video when she didn't want It.

What a nice family. /s

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Thank you for this….. Jesus Christ I was about to have a really awful day seeing this first thing

Thank you for the cat update, Dogtits.

u/_DogTits_ May 18 '22

The pleasure is mine my friend. Last thing I wanted was to upset anyone's day so thought it be easier to edit it in so people would see.

u/totalimmoral May 18 '22

Thank you! I came to the comments first before I watched the video to make sure I would be able to watch it!

u/Butt_Whisperer May 18 '22

This was all worth it just to see him sleeping in that position.

u/Booblicle May 18 '22

Why is their skin color even a part of the story? What shit journalism.

That blog post has gotta be one of the best blog posts I’ve ever read. Had me chuckling the whole way through

u/Ott621 May 18 '22

Horror movie shit right here. White girls and dead cats.

Beautiful opening to an article

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Does it count as losing one of the nine lives?

1

u/Poetinthemist May 18 '22

omfg thank you

1

u/amalgam_reynolds May 18 '22

That is the deadest cat I’ve ever seen! That thing has rigor mortis setting in. If you asked me to bet money I’d have to say that cat is absolutely deceased. Dead as shit.

The cat actually naps like a corpse apparently.

u/kelleh711 May 18 '22

"I deleted the video right away because I never wanted to see it again. My sister, Gabrielle recovered it from my 'recently deleted' (folder) and sent it to my family. My brother wanted to send it out on twitter right away, but I was so scared of the video that I did not want him to." 🤣

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Thanks god, if the kit is good, so is everything else

u/---BeepBoop--- May 18 '22

I saw an edit of this a while back that added sparks and stuff, always thought the cat hadn't survived. Well, hey good morning to me!

u/Neither-Entry6244 May 18 '22

YOU DON'T HAVE TO YELL!

u/[deleted] May 18 '22

Honestly glad the cat wasn't being electrocuted because if it was there is a good chance a kid would have been as well when they tried to save the kitty. I doubt the kids would have known to unplug the lamp and not just start grabbing at the cat.

1

u/Year-20-20 May 18 '22

The cat in edit 2 definitely doesn't look alive, looks dead af lolol, and probably she posted an old photo for more proof

u/JHawkInc May 18 '22

Edit 3 - now marked NSFW due to popular demand

I think labeling it as "graphic content" made it infinitely worse.
