The purrnace

I’m glad you’re feeling better. Sandy is a queen as always. Barn cat!! 😻

The beginning of this song through about the 1:25 mark when the audience finally realizes what song it is. Gives me happy chills for some reason and I always tear up.

Feed the Birds (Tuppence a Bag) from Mary Poppins. I cry every damn time.

My mother used to sing Carole King’s Tapestry to me as a lullaby. Great song, terrible to hear when you’re seven and trying to fall asleep. It’s just super melancholy and depressing.

Another one that usually gets me misty is Those Were the Days by Mary Hopkin. Wistful reminiscing about good times past.

God forbid any geldings try to say hi to us. She has absolutely no patience for little boys

I wanna be Sandy when I grow up

(Feel better, Launches!)

Honorable mention to Psycho Mom!

Who’s the gal who needs no man?
Killed him dead with the frying pan
Did it 'cause he missed the can!

Psycho Mom
Psycho Mom
Psycho Mom!

If it’s not purrkin I’m quitting this place.

It’s been a long time since I built a snow fort, but I was partial to the mason method. Of course there must be a snowball cache! Because I know my sister is lurking somewhere…

Wow! Are you interested in seeing snow in person someday, or nah?

Aww I do love Hobbes! 🤍

Cheers kitty!

You just invented Spicy Jenga.

If god had a name, what would we call him?

Aw feel better 🤍

Ah, I see now - that’s a very good point!

If you re-read what I wrote, you’ll see that’s not at all what I’m saying. Regardless I’m done with this conversation because this:

I’m sorry to be pedantic

No you’re not.

is unnecessarily rude. Have a great day.

I wonder if we’d find his work funny today.

The person I was replying was “guaranteeing” that a 300lb person can lift at least 300lbs. I’m sure your father was strong but he was a professional gymnast. He’s an outlier. And genuinely, good for your dad - that’s great. But the vast majority of 300lb people aren’t super fit. They can’t all lift 300lbs and this is what I’m arguing. I’m not talking specifically about your dad, I’m replying to the other poster who was making a ridiculous generalization.

I’m sorry to be pedantic, but you said:

How much do you think a 300 lb person can lift? I guarantee it’s at least 300 lbs.

And I’m telling you it’s unlikely they can lift 300lbs. Deadlift, lunge, squat. Because that weight is in addition to the body weight they’re used to carrying. And even for bench, pull-up, or chin-up, they are unlikely to be able to complete even one rep because those require upper body and core strength, which are not naturally built just by dint of being obese.

I’m just saying that the average 300lb person isn’t magically super strong.

Let’s see your average 300lb person do a pull-up. Or let’s see them deadlift 300lbs.

Sure their legs will be strong from carting around all that mass, but unless they’re actively strength training, that leg strength isn’t going to be as impressive as you think.
