didn't know that. I know cats can get carsick (and they definitely vomit) -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:14 18
- cats vomit because it's Tuesday -- nm - kilboooo Oct 30, 13:14
- Vomiting seems to be the default state for cats. Like hard drives have a "mean time between failure", cats have a "mean time between vomiting". -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:14 15
  - my family says I have the stomach of a cat. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:15 14
    - Don't you have one in a jar or something? - Roger Morbid Oct 30, 13:21 13
      - oh, you don't know where it's from? I have a master's in anatomy. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:23 8
        
        I knew that, but I always felt there was more to it. But the skull collecting and the wallaby freezer story explain it. -- nm - Roger Morbid Oct 30, 13:27 1
        
        the horses clinched it. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:28
        
        And more than that, I think, was some story about animal parts in your refrigerator. (IIRC) -- nm - mara Oct 30, 13:24 5
        
        my friend wouldn't let me put a wallaby in her freezer. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:25 4
        
        wallaby = delicious -- nm - Roger Morbid Oct 30, 13:27 3
        
        he died of avian tuberculosis. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:28 2
        
        so ... he would have tasted like chicken? -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:39 1
        
        he smelled like pork. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:45
      - Skulls. Loosi collects skulls. -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:21 3
        
        That makes secret stalker a whole lot more difficult. - Roger Morbid Oct 30, 13:24 1
        
        darlin, I ask for skulls every christmas. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:26
        
        I have a bunch of ferret embryos in jars. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:24
- that's for sure -- nm - CQ Oct 30, 13:14
Well, then, what proof do you have that they are seasick? -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:13 10
- They nod their heads. Seriously. -- nm - Amy Oct 30, 13:17
- probably lie down and won't get up. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:14 5
  - Where I come from, we call that dead, not sick. - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:15 4
    - you come from a place where all teenage boys are dead?? -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:15 3
      - no, just the horses that lay down and never get back up -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:22 2
        
        well, stop taking them sailing. -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:24 1
        
        but they like it! -- nm - Beryllium the Impaler Oct 30, 13:35
- try riding into battle on a sick horse, see what happens -- nm - CQ Oct 30, 13:14 2
  - "That sounds like a bad cough." "It's okay, he's just a little horse." -- nm - Max Oct 30, 13:15 1
    - "he caught a little colt" -- nm - slutty zombie loosilu Oct 30, 13:16
