My cat has a rabbit friend, that he and another cat hang around with under the porch.  Rabbit comes up and sits there, even when you're walking around by them.  Useless fucking cat.

Balances out I guess.  When I was a kid, I had two cats, and I was audience to them hunting, catching, and devouring a rabbit bigger than either of them.

That's adorable, actually. And I can't imagine a cat killing a rabbit, they're about the same size.

My dog kills rabbits. It was kind of a shock, since it's so adorable when it's chasing one. But no, once it catches it it's game over man, game fucking over.

Shakes them till they die of shock and internal bleeding. Then it DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NEXT. Honestly evolution, fuck you.

Our shi-tzu would love to do that, but she (and the rest of her breed, apparently) are too dumb to realize that

a) rabbits are big animals compared to them

b) THERE ARE NO RABBITS IN THE CITY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU DUMB DOG

Also, she tried going for a rat. She lost. Rats are terrifying.

That's a dumb dog alright.  It's supposed to run back to you grinning, rabbit in mouth, to throw it at your feet and get a reward.  Or eat the rabbit.  It's amazing just what kind of behavior evolution can hard-code into an animal.  I use to have a dog that had never seen a lake until she was seven years old; then my father moved to a lake, and the first time she saw a duck she knew she had to catch it.  She would swim until she passed out, and you could tell by the look in her eyes that she didn't even want to, she just couldn't stop herself from trying to grab them.

It just stands over it, staring at us. Actually, the only two times I've seen her kill a rabbit I've been quite close to the dog so maybe she would come running with it if I wasn't around, because normally she can't catch the things.

They're great at hiding, too. I almost tripped over one that I thought was a mound.

@ windows key complaints:

yes it can be annoying in some games but without it you couldn't open the run prompt or find window without opening the start menu.

go ahead and try it:
windows key + r for run and windows key + f for find window.

The story about the two men sentenced to death for homosexual relations in Malawi depressed me when I first heard about it.

However, hearing a further detail made it far worse.

Apparently the law they're being convicted on was introduced by British colonists.

Just when you start to think people are getting closer to a forward-thinking, accepting, cooperative world, someone somewhere pulls some hate like that out of their ass.

Really hoping the international attention does something to stop it... or at minimum call into question the archaic barbarity of that, in their own minds.

After eating Chinese take out for dinner, My stomach hurt for a long time.
After a terrible bathroom visit, I took another Tums, and proceeded to puke my guts out.
Meat came out my nose.

On a good note, i got to stay home from school.

But then again, I have 2 major projects that require me.
and a subject in math I have yet to grasp the concept of and need to do so by today.

Life just took a dramatic turn for the worse.

That's really all there is to say on the matter.

Goddamn, Janet just had a reality check, and rolled a natural 20.  I sort of feel bad, the shock must be terrible, but I'm glad she has her friend back.

After somehow passing 3 days of my school graduation exam, I had a total breakdown on my 4th day.

Now I have to go through all that horror again...
4 days, 9 hours each.
Our school system really sucks.

I did not know about Cleverbot until few minutes ago thanks to a certain topic on this forums. Searching through google, I found the site and decided to give it a try.
First I let it ask me something...and it asked me if I am alive. Answering no to this and following "Are you dead?" I looped back to "alive" question. This time I answer "No, what about you?".
I recieve the following: "Sure"
Digging deeper, I ask "Sure...WHAT?"
The answer: "I'm sure"
My finall question: "You are sure of what?"

The following made me sad sad sad:
"I don't know?"
 :'(

I need to get some sleep.
