Ah poo poo, that sucks. I know some people don't like the fruit bats, but as someone who grew up without them they will never cease to amaze me.

I also have a very affectionate and sweet orange cat and I know their value and love.

Yeah there's basically not much in life that beats a truly awesome cat, and orange dudecats have a massively inflated incidence of true awesomeness.

One of my neighbors had to move across country because her orange cat would come over to my house and chill out 24/7. One time the cat was sleeping in my bed when i woke up.

Aren't a lot of those glass eating stunts done by those regurgitator magician folks and have some sort of trick to it?

His explaining that chewing glass makes it become like sand isn't so great of a reason given all the abrasive qualities it has. So, I'm wondering if there's a trick to eating glass that he's not keen on and now has tiny glass abrasive bits moving through his squishy insides.

Chewing it thoroughly really does grind it up into a sort of sand, though obviously it's not something you want entering your digestive system (much like real sand). He's just never practiced this so he's instead swallowing shards of glass and is probably going to need a hospital visit.

You reminded me of the worst video ever where some well-greased fellow takes what looks like a jam jar up his rear end, and then it breaks, and he's awkwardly fishing out broken glass while the blood drips.

And then someone made a version of the video with googly eyes and it was a terrible thing to laugh at.

What is it with orange cats? Every story I've heard of a strange cat just wandering into someone's house and sleeping on their bed, and the one time it happened to me, has been an orange cat. What on earth instills that compulsion into them?

I saw a programme on the bbc where they put gps collars on cats to see where they went. In close knit communities where people live very near each other cats just don't see boundaries like we do. They go through each others cat flaps/windows etc and sleep where they want. Some cats were being fed by multiple different families during the day.

Even if there are loads of cats that live near each other they will just get into a routine where they just each other while still visiting multiple houses and getting fed. They just leave scent marks to communicate with the others.

He's done a few followup videos of other stunts where he's sitting on the shitter describing how much worse it was having the stuff he'd swallowed for an earlier video make its way back out again. The glass shard followup video should be a doozy.

Not that I'll watch either video, I don't want to encourage him to make more videos so I'm not going to add to his view count.

My landlord's big fat cat is orange and he's terrified of being around strange people so speak for yourself.

I remember the story you are talking about. He had a really, REALLY pretentious writing style (what sticks out to me was he would write " th' " instead of " the ") that made me wish bad things happened to him, while reading a story of a bad thing happening to him.

He was thinking that someone had locked the door to the stall he needed to use and, rubbing all the brain cells a 8 year old has together, decided to investigate. Heck, kids that age are no strangers to locking stall doors then leaving by crawling under for a prank. Who's to say that adults don't pull that kind of prank all the time in every setting. Also, the guy filming might not have said anything to deter the kid, choosing instead to start recording a video because we live in a wild and wonderful future.

An orange neighbor cat once crashed a big Halloween party I was throwing. It was a warm enough night that we left the back door open, and he just wandered in, made himself at home, and accepted pettings and head-scritches from all the partygoers. (He didn't try to move in though; he left when the party wound down.)

The next day I brought my own cat home (I'd left him with my mom for the evening), and after he'd sniffed around a bit, he was furious with me, I guess for cheating on him with another cat. Didn't speak to me for days.

I wondered about that too so I looked it up. Apparently there are a bunch of different checkers variants out there. Judging by the weird 10x10 board, this one is International draughts, which does allow backward captures.
