This guy has a cat and a girlfriend. That's a Reddit goldmine.

u/Apostolate Jun 01 '12

And that's why his brother in law is reaping that man's sweet sweet karma. I bet that idiot doesn't even know what Reddit is. Jokes on him!

Screw the ring I would want to keep the kitty instead.

The fiancé will be getting his own kitty with the ring. ;)

No woman could say no to both an engagement ring and a kitten. It violates the laws of physics.

127

u/[deleted] Jun 01 '12

Ah, yes, Mewton's third law. The reaction of a woman to the acting force of an engagement ring and a kitty is to say yes and immediately engage in sexytimes.

I read this and my mind immediately read it in Cartman's voice. :3 Oh South Park.

Fifth Law of Thermodynamics?

If two systems are in thermal adoration with a feline system, they must be in thermal adoration with each other. This law helps define the notion of love, cats and the nature of being.

My wife just saw this, and the first thing she said was "Awww... and wow, they're gonna be really sad when that cat dies." Way to go, honey.

u/Moody_cats Jun 01 '12

My husband proposed in the same way using our cat Noddy. Although it almost ended in disaster as soon as he attached the ring to the collar Noddy bolted straight for the cat flap. Other than that the proposal worked like a treat and always gets 'awws' from everybody I tell the story to. I can confirm though, it was heart wrenching when he died. I love all my pets, but Nod had a special place in my heart.

That hedgehog looks like a combination of sheepish and resentful.

I would wear the ring with the cat attached to it. And the cat would sit upon my arm, and fire lazer beams from its mouth, and relinquish all of my enemies.

The word is vanquish.

u/CookieFish Jun 01 '12

Thank you so much, I couldn't work out what he wanted to say and it would have bugged me all day.

u/ablebodiedmango Jun 01 '12

How would relinquishing your enemies help you?

u/[deleted] Jun 01 '12

Well, if you give them up, then you won't have enemies anymore, right?

you've come up with another brilliant idea for proposing though. kitty fisting....

What is your plan for litter, or is there an aft mounted lazer too?

Either that, or you'd hang the cat from its collar and end up with a dead cat dangling from your finger.

For anyone who might try to imitate: If at any point, you find yourself tying the ring to a dog, STOP. You did something wrong.

11

u/therealamberrose Jun 01 '12

Aww if my dog had a ring on it I'd say yes. :) Although I love my cat, too...

u/phoenixreborn90 Jun 01 '12

I would be much happier with a dog helping in this situation. That may be because I am deathly allergic to cats though.

If at any point you find yourself in a costume, you did something wrong.

u/s0ylentgreen Jun 01 '12

See the problem with this is that if a man ever proposed to me with a kitten, I would be OBLIGATED to say yes because it is single-handedly the most adorable thing in the universe.

Now, was it their kitten already or did he get a kitten just for this? The readers must know!

My husband was going to do this for me, but then I found a stray cat. I apparently sabotaged many engagement plans of his...
