I was actually not being serious, but poking at 'em.

They dislike any such thing, and yet those exact same guys ...............................

Inconvenient, but nothing to get excited about.

Ironic how a little rubber ducky annoys the hell out of people. - life's too short to let your little rubber ducky crank up your hate and blood pressure. More pressing things........

Speaking of dressing up pets -
Hey, I like this guy. Car was cool - a really nicely built 3.6 and he dressed his cat up because it was cold out. He had his cat with him in the car.

That car reminds me of what we did to a guy we worked with 40 years ago. Nobody liked him much, he was loud, pushy, and arrogant. We worked 3rd shift, so we took turns going on break. He had a Pontiac Sunbird, and left the sunroof open that night. We filled it up with packing peanuts, to the point they were coming out the top. He was pretty angry when we got off the next morning. We got lucky, he wouldn’t talk to any of us the rest of the week……

The one place I worked a. Had a machinist who didn't shower on a regular basis. And he was told about. So.......the day before we got off for Christmas. Everyone in the shop left Harry a small gifted wrapped present on his toolbox at lunch time. After lunch, Harry went to his toolbox and seen all of gifted wrapped presents. Thought he was going to break down and cry. That was until he started to open up the presents. He had 38 bars of soap. Ohhh......was he pissed...The asshole still didn't get it.

As my Grandfather use to say, "A rat does not smell it's own hole".

We had a guy like that in my Army Basic Training cycle. We eventually had a cleaning committee throw him in shower and threw borax cleaner all over him and gave a scrub down with the bristle brushes we used on the toilets. He finally got it.

That is one stoic looking cat. Dresses better than me too
Yeah, I need to take some lessons is outfits from that cat.

This is him in person (or is that in cat? Hmmmm, mine think they are people)

I think maybe stoic is fitting - I've never seen a cat with no sign of emotion or a face that didn't change with circumstances or whatever.
Wish I had gotten pics of the car and the list of mods and such. It was a nicely done 3.6, the guy spent some time and money on it.

I had an idea of who, especially when my best man - my future BIL, asked for the keys so he could go get something for his sister.
Dave and I were close friends for years - we hit it off before the engagement and became pretty much best friends after. Shared interests in motorcycles (I bought a bike he had) and cars. He was a MOPAR guy, drove a really nice Duster he'd done a lot of work on. So common interests for sure.
Ended up it was my brothers and her brothers and a few others. I thought the oil cans tied behind the car was a nice touch.
I have a feeling my then new wife had some words to share with her brothers, though, especially when the spark plug triggered pop went off a few miles down the road. I said relax, I'm sure it's your brothers.

Ironic, for the good Catholic upbringing they had -the bachelor party involved some bars their mother would have freaked out over.
