CryptidBestiary, in But cat domesticated us

I find it funny that besides intellect, us humans possess the greatest power, which is petting. Petting allows us to be friends with most animals that would otherwise kill us

Pretty sure my cat would still kill me if he had the ability. He’ll be like “Give me pets. Scratch my belly. Now DIE!”

AFAIR it’s because the cat showing you their belly is not “scratch my belly” but rather “I’m not afraid of you so I show you my most fragile of bits”

Mesophar,

This for sure. Next time your cat shows you their belly, scratch the back of their head or pet their back like you normally would and see if they react better.

My cat actually loves belly rubs, but I remember that little tidbit with other cats.

Mesophar,

Some cats do like it! Depending on situation, mine do as well, but my roommates have a cat who will quickly flop over to show her belly if you pet her, but will act offended and give a warning bite if you try to pet her there

CodeGameEat,

Idk, i feel like control over food supply might be a bigger factor on these friendships :p

angrystego,

Food is a good reason. But I’m friends with several cats I don’t feed. Petting works!

Globulart,

Cats didn’t domesticate themselves by being fed directly by humans. But humans still brought the food because humans bring rats and mice with them, cats stuck around for the greater volume of prey.

And the scritches, obviously.

kamen,

I don’t know about that… Try petting a bear.

Can we burn him?

ReMikeAble,

But how do we know he’s a witch?

DmMacniel,

Uhm… Witches burn?

captainlezbian,

Here let me try: Matt, you’ve been mocking capitalism and mainstream society for over three decades and in the process have managed to make one of the most overly commercialized mainstream tv shows to ever exist.

Kyyrypyy,

Did he turn you in to a newt?

DmMacniel,

Well… I got better.

520, in Given all the accurate predictions of the Simpsons and Futurama

That or he's been doing this non-stop for thirty years. You tend to cover a lot of scenarios in that time.

MeatsOfRage,

Yea, there’s over 700 episodes of a show that directly speaks about American culture. You’re gonna get some guesses right. Bet there’s as many misses as well but we don’t call them predictions until they’re true.

If I had a better desktop or a laptop with better specs, I’d definitely be willing to give it a try.

Geek_King, in Given all the accurate predictions of the Simpsons and Futurama

A male witch is a warlock right? Perhaps he’s a reality warper, and isn’t predicting things like Trump becoming president, but rather he’s MAKING IT HAPPEN!!! BURN THE WARLOCK!

male witch is a warlock right

Depends on your source. I’m sure there’s some context on which that’s true.

If we’re talking the transphobic author’s world, a male witch is a wizard. Warlock, there, is a title kinda like “knight”.

In D&D a warlock is a person who gets magic by forming a pact with an otherworldly patron, like a devil or fey. A witch has meant different things at different times, but probably most strongly conjured images of an old-looking hag brewing potions with a familiar.

According to IRL wiccan lore a warlock is an evil male practiser of witchcraft, while a witch can be male or female.

Other contexts will have other explanations, I’m sure.

Geek_King,

I appreciate the information, it really sheds light on the nuance of those words.

    Saganastic,

    The joke is that the shrimp fried the rice, rather than the shrimp being in the fried rice. Because the dish is called "shrimp fried rice".
