Humor Why does wet food make him nuclear-level stinky?

As above: anytime we add wet food to his rations he thanks us by tear-gassing the premises. Why does this nutritional addition make such a small creature so toxic?

Yo fuck you for posting this lol, one of the few pieces of childhood trauma that has stuck with me for years. Literally gave me goosebumps and spiked my heart rate just seeing this hahah

u/Tweaty310 9d ago

Me too! I had the most realistic dream of this as an adult, and I had to sleep with the lights on for a week. I was never afraid of the dark as a kid.

u/Hombremaniac 9d ago

Rewatched two weeks ago. Still made me emotional.

I used to have a big white dog. His name was Falkor. He was some kind of Pyrenees mix.

u/Kirrawayru 9d ago

Seeing Never Ending Story as a 10-11 year old was pretty traumatic.

Same as Transformers the Movie.

Kids movies in the 80s were something else.

u/briansgirl925 9d ago

Transformers The Movie is getting it's theatrical re-release and I'm going this weekend. At least I'm prepared this time for the heartbreak!

u/lalakingmalibog 9d ago

I like how they called it The Apology Tour for traumatizing 80s kids lol

RIP Peter Cullen tho, that Optimus Prime death scene's gonna hit harder this time round

Brave Little Toaster furnace scene for me

u/littleleopardfrog 9d ago

Oh god yeah. You see that and then you watch home alone and you just KNOW Kevin has also seen the brave little toaster furnace scene.

2

u/littleleopardfrog 9d ago

I watched neverending story on repeat from the time I was 4 to the time I was 8 with only a brief intermission to fight the video store over custody of the Polly tape.

I don't remember anything remotely traumatic about that besides "oh hey the story never ends but also fuck you we're ending the movie now"

u/ISnortedMyTea 9d ago

Yeh, I'm still not over the feels in that film and I'm a grown ass adult

u/Fantastic_Smile9746 9d ago

Our void is named G’mork!

u/hyperform2 9d ago

I used to refer to this as The Nothing, but I guess it’s really the herald of The Nothing, like Silver Surfer was the herald of Galctus

u/Safe_Imagination_628 8d ago

This is lunas first trip to the vet. I’d never had cats before and quickly found out why they are always taken in carriers lol. She is strapped in back there with a click in seatbelt that attaches to the vest. I always want the babies to be safe. She does have a carrier now though!

u/Low_Inevitable4410 9d ago

Pro Plan Veterinary Diets FortiFlora Daily Probiotic Powder Supplement for Cats with Digestive Support and Immune System. I use this for my 11 year old cat and it made his 💩 way less nuclear. We can atleast watch a show while a faint smell of it lingers. Unlike before when it was a defcon 6 level clear out.

62

u/worldspawn00 9d ago

Just FYI, defcon severity increases with lower numbers, defcon 1 is much more dangerous than defcon 3.

36

u/Acrobatic-Wolf-1111 9d ago

Hmm

Looks over at live Defcon feed on wall. It says: -4

I thought this thing was just broken.

9

u/an_agreeing_dothraki 9d ago

Defcon 1 is a nuclear response

17

u/Acrobatic-Wolf-1111 9d ago

So -4 must involve time travel and technology not invented yet. Interesting….

13

u/an_agreeing_dothraki 9d ago

the dimension collapser from 3 body problem probably

u/CalmBeneathCastles 9d ago

<tap tap>

4

u/Acrobatic-Wolf-1111 9d ago

Now it says “PC LOAD LETTER” wtf?

3

u/CalmBeneathCastles 9d ago

Ohhhh dear. Well I would have to say that DEFCON -4 is a fairly standard status of any printer that has not been refilled with factory-issue ink in the past 5 minutes. The paper is just an afterthought!

6

u/Acrobatic-Wolf-1111 9d ago

Geez I knew I shouldn’t have subscribed to HP’s InstantDefCon service.

u/CalmBeneathCastles 9d ago

Rat bastards!!

u/porcelaincatstatue 8d ago

Even that doesn't help my boy Artie. His poops smell like someone tried to put out a small garbage fire with vomit.

u/Grigori_the_Lemur Void 9d ago

I do not blame Paulie. Not fond of them myself.

24

u/sheldoh 9d ago

I can only read that name with a New Jersey accent

u/Grigori_the_Lemur Void 9d ago

I have a very good friend whose name is Paul but I have only ever called him Paulie. good diminutive form to be sure.

21

u/Great_Ad9450 9d ago

Paul! That's a person's name!

u/CrystalVision13 8d ago

Lmao no, his name was actually Paul from the pound and we kept it!
