I got him a set when I first brought him home - he was surprisingly accepting of it - but I have since very cleverly knocked it behind an armoire I have no hope of moving myself.

It’ll be found when I move, I guess.

He simply had some closely-supervised time, before the 🎵 rain kept pourin’ down 🎶

We’ve never met, but you might be the kindest person I know.

How have I missed this joke all these years?!?

Yes, yes he is, and he has also just acquired a new nickname.

Bon apetit!

I got one or two of those a while back; zero regrets. (I’d never even heard of Culver’s before moving to the Mitten State, so I had to try it! I like butter … I like burgers …)  
To quote Sam Jackson, now that was a tasty burger!

I just … man, today, I really wanted it on rye toast with a mess of onions, and they absolutely delivered on that!

How does one say “Bless your heart” in Michigander?

So do cats, but I can’t blame it on the dog (since I don’t have one.)

All I can say is, I know the difference between his & mine.

( _snifff_ “Jesus, Monks, what did you EAT?!?”  
“Whatever you fed me, O prison warden!”)

Cats also snore, sneeze, and - this one is hilarious - get the hiccups.  
You know how getting the hiccups can be annoying? And you know how cats _hate_ being laughed at … ? Combine the two, and … 😈

I’ve also seen YouTube of cats begging for a lick of ice cream, followed by … an ice cream headache. They make the silliest face.  
Hey, they asked for it.

Sometimes those come out the absolute bestest.

I bet **JtC** has a good floozy story that starts out like that …
