Cats would elect him for half a can of tuna. I wouldn't. What's your point again?

Pfft. People voted Trump for nothing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 23 hours ago

Big deal, some humans would too.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

My cat probably would have voted for Trump. She's selfish, not very bright and scared to death of outsiders.

scared to death of outsiders

do you mean people from outside the house or is your cat actually racist?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Man, if that guy could stop sniffing his farts for a second I might doubt this enough to check it's actually real

But no

Whether this happened or not, it happened, because the man is insufferable

Literally autism plus fame. But he's not bad, just annoying.

Edit: Oh wait, he's apparently a bit of a sex pest? Goddamn, can anyone become popular in America without some sort of big immorality? I guess places like Sodom and Gomorrah can really exist, lol.

He’s had a couple shit takes, I don’t even remember what they were; but I think people just don’t like being reminded they’re stupid, not that he’s insufferable.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

If by "shit takes" you mean "sexual harassment scandals", sure. Either way, he's the walking epitome of "um...ackshually..." in a way that makes him profoundly distasteful to most of the population.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Nah it’s because he is really smart in one area but keeps acting like he is some omni-genius. He lacks the insight to be able to say “I don’t know”.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Now I'm not gonna pretend I've seen remotely close to everything he's done, but everything I have seen oozes arrogance and skin-deep intellectualism.

Oh yeah, and the sex pest stuff of course

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

It's the curse of the medium. You can't see people tone on text so his writing come across like a shithead sniffing on his own farts but when you watch him speak it became endearing like watching someone so excited to share you something.

Me, who wears earplugs when I vacuum because the loud noise stresses me out:

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

"Not afraid of vacuum cleaners", now just look at all the"rationalists" terrified their chat bots will become sentient and eternally punish simulated copies of them for not ushering in the singularity with sufficient fervour.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You do not want to find out who cats would elect...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

That just sounds like proof that cats have autism. I quite enjoy chasing laser dots and quite dislike vacuum cleaners. :3

Tyson pisses me off unreasonably, I really don't like the way he does things. Cannot elaborate.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

He's somehow the most pseudointellectual person alive despite being a legitimate intellectual. Dude has a PhD from Columbia and he still posts "you can kiss yourself in the mirror, but only on the lips" multiple times.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I was just completely turned off by him when he went all pedantic on some kid who said "The Sun rises in the East and sets in the West." He argued that it's not exactly East and West, and that it varies through the year and by location.

The smarmy ass just doesn't seem to understand that there is a difference between casual speech and rigorous scientific speech.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

That pretty much sums it up.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

If we're talking fears, cats don't have an irrational fear for small spiders that physically cannot harm them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

They're scared to death of cucumbers though. Does that count?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 23 hours ago

Insects do harm humans though, in a much worse way than a tiger can do to you under some occasions.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I've seen a few people be scared of a Roomba... Were those actually just several cats in a trenchcoat? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Y'all chose Old Deuteronomy.

Cats give people toxoplasmosis which fucks up their brains.

Cats are at least partially responsible.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I guess I'm a cat...
