(33,688 posts)For some reason both of my furballs have had that smell.

(8,492 posts)But, on the weekends they smell like strawberries and cream. I have to use a conditioner on them because it's so freakin' dry here (my boy was walking around one nite and I could see the sparks coming off his fur...kinda cool). There's only one that they'll let me use. They actually love the stuff.

(6,787 posts)Apparently kitty saliva has antibiotic properties. I've always liked burying my nose in kitty fur. In kitty dirtboxes, not so much.

I am sweetness and light personified.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Then I might agree with you.
But you aren't, and it hasn't.

Or maybe they are dumbasses because they don't have a cat.
Either way, taterguy is a dumbass.

(23,973 posts)Saliva left by you on those cigarette butts has ratted you out.
Oh, and you better see a doctor about that condition you have.
Just a little 'heads up'.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)How the fuck do you know which butts are ones that have my saliva on them?
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)You get lots of notices for late bills, too.
You can purchase a really good paper shredder for just a few bucks now.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Got any more scurrilous accusations you want to sling at me?
Douche.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Unless it really was you ordering all that Japanese Hentai.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Henna and hentai are too similar,
especially when I've been drinking.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)The Latvians told me that you almost crash their server when ordering on-line 'henna' through their website, four or five times a week.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)In fact, I encourage such behavior.
The Latvians cut me in for 10% of the gross.
I call my new Mercedes, 'taterguy'.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)'Taterguy' is a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, built and available only in Germany, and assembled by Unionized German autoworkers, who are absolute artists at their craft.
They said it was my bonus. I didn't buy it, it just showed up at my front door, with a thank you note attached.
Why do you hate Germans so much?
Is it because they have access to socialized medicine?
Is it because you an only afford to see some guy who is an ex-prison doctor who lost his license to practice medicine after his seventh DUI, and Germans get three weeks off work with pay if they get a bad headache?
That is no fault of the German People.
If you stopped spending so much money on internet porn, you might find an actual doctor to patch up the road rash you got after getting blown off your bicycle by a sleek, shiny new Mercedes zooming by.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)I do NOT pay for internet porn.
My standards are low enough that I have no problem finding plenty of free stuff that I enjoy.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)What you think is free internet porn is actually single Amish dating sites.
Lots of hairy people turn you on?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)What other religions are you bigoted against?
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)But, coming from someone that hates Germans for no reason, Projection is a valuable tool.
Either that or those hairy legs are a fetish of yours.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Especially the hairy ones.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Or the need to be dominated by an Authoritaian type?
Maybe you are of Polish descent and are used to being invaded?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Well, maybe a desire to be dominated, and possibly invaded
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)prefer cats as pets.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)so there
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Alas, it was spontaneous.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)I actually wrote a book on the subject, you may have heard of it.
"Die Komplette Geschichte Des Engineering In Deutschland Für Dumbasses".
I'll send you a signed copy.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)I keep getting told that the subject is way too specialized to have a broad appeal of any kind.
The last publisher said that there was only one guy on the planet that he knew of who would be interested in reading it, but he's usually too busy looking at hairy-legged German internet fetish porn to bother.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Imbecile.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)that is all of Human Knowledge, no matter how insignificant.
I already have a subject for my next effort.
I'm doing research for it now.
I'll think that I'll dedicate it to you.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)NOT!
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)And the inside of the back cover doesn't have ads for Sea Monkeys or X-Ray Specs, like your usual reading material does.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Like you've done years of field research on the subject.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)I've also been to the beach a few times.
Never seen a fucking monkey in the ocean.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)going for a swim when they got a gander at that hirsute body of yours.
I think I saw the episode where Stan almost caught you in a net.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)JAWS had a big impact on me.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)My eyes sting just thinking about it.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)It's kind of creepy.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Especially when I'm down wind of you.
I literally cannot breathe.
It's like a fog made entirely of funk.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)I lied.
I actually have a great deal to do.
I'm doing it right now.
I told you I was researching my next book.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Posting on a message board or working on a book that will never be published.
At least on a message board one or two other people will read what you wrote.
Let me know when you finish your book. I have some contacts in the biz.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)doesn't exactly mean that you have "contacts in the biz."
That reminds me, I need to add a chapter on delusional thinking processes.
People that have cats as pets don't have to worry about such things.
Of course, you wouldn't know that.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)I guess I could get a rack and some bungee cords but the pizza would be cold by the time I got there.
It doesn't matter. Your book is probably gonna suck anyway.
As for delusional thinking and cats: Ever watch a Bond movie? The crazy villain almost always owns a cat.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)For a person who employs a bicycle as their primary mode of transportation, you certainly use it badly.
I was thinling that I might put some pictures in the book to spice it up for the illiterate among us.
I'm sorry that you think Bond movies are even remotely related to reality. The crazy villians in real life look like nerdy doofuses like Rick Santorum.
Who hates cats.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)I just choose not to.
You have to be extra-cautious on a bike. You have no protection and a lot of cars don't see you.
I never go through intersections unless I'm absolutely sure that it's safe. It wouldn't make any sense to constantly accelerate when you're just gonna hit the brakes. The morgue is filled with cyclists who thought they had the right-of-way, which as a practical matter they never do.
And another thing: Pizza warmth isn't just determined by the time it takes to get there. You also need to take into account the outside temperature and wind.
Do me a favor: Shut the fuck up. Please.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)As I thought.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Now cut the crap before you start to really piss me off.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Your BP goes down when petting a purring kitty.
Kitties are more effective stress relievers than transcendental meditation.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)You would have made him make an exception.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)If you have, did he take a swing at you?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)He kicked your ass, didn't he?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)What's so fucking special about the Dolly Llama?
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)The Dalai Lama that is.
"If you meet The Buddha on the road, kill him."
The other person mentioned sounds like the girl that beat your ass back in third grade
taterguy
(29,582 posts)How the fuck did you find out about it?
I need a hug now.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)She grew up to be big, mean, and had linebacker speed.
The only thing she liked better than bourbon whiskey was a good old-fashioned bare-knuckle bar fight.
And you need a hug.
Cry me a river.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)You've reopened some really painful wounds.
I hope you're proud of yourself.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)I'll tell Dolly that the kid that called her "Gigantosaurus" back in third grade needs a hug.
She'll be so happy to see an old classmate again.
You can try to run, it won't help.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)You've done nothing in this thread but try to push my buttons and I won't stand for it any longer.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)I have been nothing short of cordial and understanding of your various difficulties.
Pushing your buttons sounds kind of dirty.
What are you wearing right now?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)taterguy
(29,582 posts)Go suck on a hackeysack.
Looser.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)So your ass (which is kinda hippy, by your own admission) is more comfortable in looser jeans?
And what does New Jersey have to do with all of this?
Are you on drugs?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Do I look like a dumbass?
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)please don't hurt yourself getting whiplash snapping your head around to watch it as it gets hammered right out of the ballpark.
Dumbass.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)I get it.
I need to exercise more and eat less.
Your snark isn't helping.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)They say that it works, drink more beer but I'm skeptical.
I'd need to see more have another slice of delicious pie data before accepting that as factual.
Does that help you that pan of lasagna has your name on it in any way?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)n/t
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Maybe a little fresh air would smoke more cigarettes do you good.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)It will excuse you from work for the next six months.
That way he'll know not to go looking for you in your usual hiding spots at work.
My office will bill you later.
Oh, and I had a specialist consult on your case.
His bill is added into my fee.
His name is Dr. Howard, maybe you've heard of him?
From the medical firm of Drs. Howard, Fine, and Howard, LLC.
He's quite famous.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Once again, you're not being helpful.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Gossiping at the water cooler doesn't count, either, nor does sneaking out for a smoke on the loading dock.
And how can riding a bike not be classified as exercise?
Seems to me that many other people count their riding activities as such.
You get a free pass for a six-month vacation, and you turn your nose up at it.
Some bucket of grateful you got there.
I need to pad my bill a tad, just for that.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)There you go again, just making shit up.
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)And what do you have to do to get a drink of water, go outside and dip your hat into the rain barrel provided?
What type of cheap boss do you have, anyway?
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Are you trying to get me fired?
Is that what you want?
Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)Not with those phone pics you took of him at the Christmas party he threw for the employees at Hooters last year.
taterguy
(29,582 posts)Ikonoklast
(23,973 posts)In comparison to you, of course.

(12,272 posts)Though I did have a visitor yesterday morning and she smelled like dirt. She was a sweet, little, orange tabby. Mr gut said I was going to make some little girl cry if I didn't let the cat back out.

(11,795 posts)I'm kidding, I don't have cats. I'm totally allergic, and my Viszla would make a playtoy out of one. I like them just fine, though.
My dogs, however, smell like mulch.

(15,758 posts)The pisspot runt is getting old and is having difficulty performing the kitteh acrobatics necessary to clean certain areas. I help her out regularly. Dammit, kid's out of diapers, yet my life still centers around cleaning up a dirty butt. How is that at all fair?
On the up side, my buddy, the puddin' butt, smells like cat. On the occasion her tootsies smell like litter, I don't begrudge her that, because at least she's using the box, unlike the pisspot.
Iris
(15,661 posts)mythology
(9,527 posts)Her default response to stimulation, other than the sound of a fire or a can of cat food being opened is to run for her life. I'm guessing her previous owner was a horrid excuse for a human being because it took me a month to get her out from under the bed when I first took her home from the shelter. Now she insists on sleeping on me, but she's still most comfortable with everything being still and quiet.

Bruce Wayne
(692 posts)She smells of danger and the path not taken long long ago.
AtomicKitten
(46,585 posts)I adopted her when she was 4-5 weeks old from the SPCA. She had casts on her front legs and with them she weighed a whopping 1 lb. She was feral and unfortunately met up with a group of first-graders who thought it was fun to drop-kick her back and forth (broken bones, internal injuries). A good-hearted person rescued her and took her to the SPCA. Layla is 10 yrs old now and weighs 29 lbs. She eats, poops, and sleeps. Period. But because of her body habitus (girth and residuals from her injuries) she cannot clean her lower half, so we bathe her almost daily.

TrogL
(32,822 posts)I don't have a sense of smell.
They likely smell of dog breath as one of the dogs seems to think they need licking.
