13 | reyssat | 1 | A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of. |
2 | -- Ogden Nash |
||
3 | % |
||
4 | A little dog goes into a saloon in the Wild West, and beckons to |
||
5 | the bartender. "Hey, bartender, gimme a whiskey." |
||
6 | The bartender ignores him. |
||
7 | "Hey bartender, gimme a whiskey!" |
||
8 | Still ignored. |
||
9 | "HEY BARMAN!! GIMME A WHISKEY!!" |
||
10 | The bartender takes out his six-shooter and shoots the dog in the |
||
11 | leg, and the dog runs out the saloon, howling in pain. |
||
12 | Three years later, the wee dog appears again, wearing boots, |
||
13 | jeans, chaps, a Stetson, gun belt, and guns. He ambles slowly into the |
||
14 | saloon, goes up to the bar, leans over it, and says to the bartender, |
||
15 | "I'm here t'git the man that shot muh paw." |

23 | be deemed to be a cat. |

24 | -- Rule 46, Oxford Union Society, London |

26 | Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat. |

29 | "Anything else you wish to draw to my attention, Mr. Holmes ?" |
||
30 | "The curious incident of the stable dog in the nighttime." |
||
31 | "But the dog did nothing in the nighttime." |
||
32 | "That was the curious incident." |
||
33 | -- A. Conan Doyle, "Silver Blaze" |

35 | Auribus teneo lupum. |

||
41 | Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a function. |
||
42 | -- Garrison Keillor |
||
43 | % |
||
44 | Cats are smarter than dogs. You can't make eight cats pull a sled through |
||
45 | the snow. |
||
46 | % |
||
47 | Cats, no less liquid than their shadows, offer no angles to the wind. |

59 | % |
||
60 | Dogs just don't seem to be able to tell the difference between important people |
||
61 | and the rest of us. |
||
62 | % |
||
63 | Everyone *knows* cats are on a higher level of existence. These silly humans |
||
64 | are just to big-headed to admit their inferiority. |
||
65 | Just think what a nicer world this would be if it were controlled by |
||
66 | cats. |
||
67 | You wouldn't see cats having waste disposal problems. |
||
68 | They're neat. |
||
69 | They don't have sexual hangups. A cat gets horny, it does something |
||
70 | about it. |
||
71 | They keep reasonable hours. You *never* see a cat up before noon. |
||
72 | They know how to relax. Ever heard of a cat with an ulcer? |
||
73 | What are the chances of a cat starting a nuclear war? Pretty neglible. |
||
74 | It's not that they can't, they just know that there are much better things to |
||
75 | do with ones time. Like lie in the sun and sleep. Or go exploring the world. |
||
76 | % |
||
77 | For a man to truly understand rejection, he must first be ignored by a cat. |

79 | Hi! You have reached 555-0129. None of us are here to answer the phone and |
||
80 | the cat doesn't have opposing thumbs, so his messages are illegible. Please |

82 | % |
||
83 | I loathe people who keep dogs. They are cowards who haven't got the guts |
||
84 | to bite people themselves. |

||
87 | I love dogs, but I hate Chihuahuas. A Chihuahua isn't a dog. It's a rat |
||
88 | with a thyroid problem. |

||
105 | If you have received a letter inviting you to speak at the dedication of a |
||
106 | new cat hospital, and you hate cats, your reply, declining the invitation, |
||
107 | does not necessarily have to cover the full range of your emotions. You must |
||
108 | make it clear that you will not attend, but you do not have to let fly at cats. |
||
109 | The writer of the letter asked a civil question; attack cats, then, only if |
||
110 | you can do so with good humor, good taste, and in such a way that your answer |
||
111 | will be courteous as well as responsive. Since you are out of sympathy with |
||
112 | cats, you may quite properly give this as a reason for not appearing at the |
||
113 | dedication ceremonies of a cat hospital. But bear in mind that your opinion |
||
114 | of cats was not sought, only your services as a speaker. Try to keep things |
||
115 | straight. |

148 | % |
||
149 | Sometimes when I get up in the morning, I feel very peculiar. I feel |
||
150 | like I've just got to bite a cat! I feel like if I don't bite a cat |
||
151 | before sundown, I'll go crazy! But then I just take a deep breath and |
||
152 | forget about it. That's what is known as real maturity. |

155 | Speaking of purchasing a dog, never buy a watchdog that's on sale. |
||
156 | After all, everyone knows a bargain dog never bites! |
||
157 | % |
||
158 | The difference between dogs and cats is that dogs come when they're |
