I just found out that there are a shitload (pun intended) of videos of cats pooping in the toilet.

What kind of weirdo posts things like that?

For that matter, what kind of weirdo watches things like that? :smack: 😃

(Hey, really, I only saw one!)

They take & post the video to prove that it (training a cat to use a human toilet) can be done.

Oh, I know that. (But not any who’ve ever owned me.) The one I saw featured a Sphynx who drank out of the birdbath (I mean, litterbox :p) before she did her business.

I long ago hit the tipping point of being surprised by anything on the Internet. I think it was about the time that someone pointed me to a website featuring drawings of dragons having sex with cars. Once you accept that someone a) thought of this and b) thought other people might like to look at it, you pretty much have to accept that the same is true for anything else you can think of.

There’s a saying: “I’m in the weird part of YouTube.”

There are also cyst lancing and zit popping videos. I find them as revolting as most people do, but there have been threads about them on this board. Ew.
