A cat has been arrested for drug smuggling. Yes. > **[Cat caught smuggling drugs into Costa Rica prison](https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/c0j7zexwpl9o)** > > The feline was found carrying 235.65g of marijuana and 67.76g of heroin, authorities say. ---

For those of you who may bee confused, I would just like to point out that this thread was perfectly titled when it first appeared, and was consecutive to and immediately below the thread titled ā€œguess what went wrong with car, for fun?ā€ But now, as I write, there are 5 other threads separating them, and this one is above the car one. Which kinda screws up a good parody. šŸ™‚ Question for mods and computer nerds: is there any way to change the software so that two related threads remain adjacent? This could be a useful feature, whether for funny/contradictory stuff, or for serious political issues where opposite opinions are being expressed. ---

Responding as a semi-nerd, and a mod (but not a MPSIMS mod), Iā€™m not aware of a way to keep them directly linked. Of course, as a poster, you can always do a link to the inspirational thread, thusly: > [@Guess what went wrong with car, for fun?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/guess-what-went-wrong-with-car-for-fun/1018409): > > Ms. Napierā€™s 12 year old Toyota RAV4 broke down yesterday. One moment cruising down the highway at speed, then a loud noise, then major clattering noise and immediate total loss of engine power. Pulled over to shoulder, tried to start it and it turned over fine but never caught. Nothing visibly out of place in quick looks under hood and below car. Electrical accessories fine. No smoke or smells. Over the next 20 minutes a small puddle of coolant slowly gathered, but it wasnā€™t visible immediatelyā€¦ Which is probably enough since weā€™re so close to the top anyway! Anyway, the cat looked pretty well behaved through all that, and is probably piiiiiiised that they didnā€™t get the glorious rewards they rightfully earned for doing their ā€œtrickā€ for some heartless owners/operators. Justice for the cat! ---

I assume he was a latchkey cat, then fell in with the wrong crowd. Peer pressureā€™s a bitch. ---

No no no he was coerced by threats of violence, by the Cat-tail. (errr, Cartel) He really objected to being called a ā€œmuleā€, tho.
