Even when “Parks and recreation” was added i didn’t have a clue. I have never heard of the show and concluded Lil Sebastion was someones dog and this was related to the other threads about dogs in recreation parks. ---

I see that even after a long weekend away, the jokes are still not funny. My bad for forgetting that wisdom does not translate into comedy. There is a certain culture here that does not translate to mine. I guess I just don’t find old people humour funny. ---

I don’t know. I think it shows a certain ‘old people’ fortitude to keep a thread going for three pages worth of jokes when it could have been wrapped up with a single, “Quit your bitching. It’s a fucking sit-com, ferchrissakes.” ---

I believe this can be explained by the properties of cat fur vis a vis foodstuffs in general, and particularly foodstuffs you really want to enjoy - like bacon. You know how a solitary piece of cat fur floating around will invariably end up buried right in the middle of your tasty standwich, and cause you to gag as it tickles halfway down the throat? The tape is not stuck to the cat fur.
