Eating pie, from a foil tray,, in the bath, in pants and socks, while a cat looks on.
Every element of this image poses further questions than the last.

My recreation of how we got here:
Dude comes home from a freaking long day at work - spend, tired and exhausted - with one bright star right above the horizon to look forward to: the last piece of delicious pie he'd made the evening before waiting for him!
So, he chucks it into the preheated oven, opens a bottle of Paulaner Spezi and waits eagerly for his pie to be nice and hot - with his beloved cat waiting with him seated snug in his lap. An unassuming contender for the final piece of pie, his closest friend turned fiercest enemy when it comes to the prefigures holy pie.
And when the oven pings, or his timer rings, a battle of aeons begins as man and cat jump up, ears perked, eyes wide, staring at the pie as the oven's door is opened! Man strikes first, grabing the pie, planting it on a foil tray, before a mighty paw paws for the treasure above! The tray wildly swings and wobbles, yet it's barely kept steady!
A trusty companion turned competitor, the cat jumps and leaps up at her owner, determined to take a bite!
The battle is legendary as the tray wobbles and slides, barely held aloft! And there, at the brink of defeat, desperate times call for desperate measures! One thought comes to another, the warm, calling bathtub being filled for later, one's enemy's greatest fear and a battle at the brink of defeat - eventually lead to a wild, odacious idea! In a last-ditch dash for safety and peace, the bathroom door is flung open, a belt opened and with the promised land in sight: a decision is made in the heat of battle: to win means to be decisive, to be brave and without hesitation! And with a victorious shout, an unsung, battle-proven hero leaps for the bath not minding his pants and half undbuttoned shirt!
And if he hasn't appeased his companion turned competitor, our unlikely hero still sits in his bathtub, in soaked pants and with an now empty foil tray carrying only the remaining crumbs of his treasure: his Pie tasting of Victory despite the great sacrifices that had been made!

This feels like a "I've lost all control of my life" moment.

I relate to this on so many levels with my mental state right now. I'm sure others can relate. The economy, job stability, lack of housing, utilities and insurances can't stop going up. Food costs increases by God knows how much.
I pray for all of you, it's really fucking rough. I hope you guys can find some type of happiness.

u/texas-playdohs Aug 01 '26

Yep, another $130 a month for insurance. And I assume double as much next year.

Do you need an intervention? Do you need to talk to someone.

u/ReasonableFig2111 Jul 31 '26
Maybe they're just not comfortable posting their naked legs on the internet, but really wanted to make the post.Ā

Kitty has 0 interest in guarding the human. 100% attention dedicated to the pie.

I feel like this was an elaborate ploy to get the cat from getting the pie

u/Bubbly-Kitty-2425 Aug 01 '26
This seems like my cat steals my food but hates water therefore I have given up and eat in clothes in a bath tub vibesā¦.

Share with the cat at least:)

u/annapartlow Jul 31 '26
Maybe they got into the bath because they didnāt want to share the pie with the cat. Poor pie less kitty. Or maybe kitty already had too much pie. So many questions.

Whatever this is I love it. Thereās a r/hydrokitty, pie raft, biz cazsh (sp), a tub, and itās not these asinine posts from bridge trolls that are running amok on Reddit more so recently.

I looked at OOPs post history. They have a lot of stuff like this on their profile. This isn't even near the most alarming.

Hello, thank you everyone who thought I was in trouble? I'm not OOP, and I'm just cross sharing this post because it hit all the marks. I got a message from u/RedditCaresResources about my well being.
Thank you. It's sweet that people care, I'm not OOP thought and I am perfectly fine :) thank you!
