Vet clinics often have litters of kittens to raise. Either they’re too young for a shelter, too sickly, or the clinic intends to adopt them out when they’re big enough. Whatever the reason, nurses often end up raising kittens and giving them ‘temporary’ names.
The intention of these temporary names is that if you give the kitten a stupid name, you have something to call it other than ‘the middle black male’, but because it’s a stupid name you wont get emotionally attached and end up keeping it. Again.
Which is how some nurses end up with cats that have names like ‘Flea bus’ and ‘Trash bag’.
this part of the into the spider verse script sent me into a fit of uncontrollable laughter that i had to hold in as quietly as possible to not wake my sleeping mom and aunt, to the point that i almost choked in a hotel room 400 miles from home with my mom and aunt snoring away obliviously as i lost all sense of awareness, drowning in unheard laughter, face contorting into the ugliest grin i’ve ever made to the point i felt pain, recovering slowly slowly slowly until i could breathe again.
Today I called a girl homophobic as a joke and she almost started crying
She said “my neighbors are a lesbian couple! I’m the least homophobic person you’ll ever meet”
I said “Kelsea I’m really sorry I hurt your feelings but I need you to know that homophobic people can have lesbian neighbors” and she just got even more distraught and said “I’ve been inside their house and I wasn’t even afraid or anything”
in case you guys wanna know what modern high school dances are like, at mine despacito came on and everyone t-posed around this one kid as he fortnite danced like his life depended on it
to be fair, at a school dance when i was in school, a kid i knew had completely memorized the choreography to the gangnam style music video and the rest of us yell-sang what does the fox say noises at her while she did it.. so like, not much different. same soil different pot
if cotton eye’d joe came on everyone would make the neatest fuckign lines and do the dance in sync. it was like a cult. but hell yeah it was fun as shit
tbh spider-man is such a chill superhero you could ask him to escort you home bc you don’t feel safe and he’d be like ‘ok sure no sweat’ I’m sure he’d even help you with your groceries meanwhile the other avengers be like ‘the world isn’t in danger so you don’t need my help’
me n my siblings used to cover each other in stuffed animals pillows and blankets and jump on each other from the top of the stairs and idk how we never got injured
glad to know all kids have always been rascals and rapscallions
My best friend and I would play “sandwich” where we took all the pillows and couch cushions in the house, and start stacking them together. You got to decide where in the sandwich you wanted to go while stacking the pillows/cushions, and the other person had to be the “olive on top” and sit there until ready to be eaten. Eaten meaning you felt like knocking the whole thing over.
the 1800s was just full of dudes strung out on medicinal cocaine and holistic heroin treatments going out into the world doing nonsense because they declared they were an expert in the field
