I got curious how ruffling feathers got transformed into rustling jimmies, so I googled it but Jimmy Rustling is apparently a real person fake person made up by CNN in a satire sense??
the norwegian idiom is usually used negatively - he didn't let himself be vippet av pinnen. The best translation of that is, he didn't let himself be disoncerted, he didn't lose his composure.
Being knocked off your perch is not that.
I'm only annoyed because somebody sells a book that says "translate idioms more gooder" and gets it wrong

Like my cousin hated cats and would shit talk them as disgusting and so on and one day I just like, had enough and was like Mike, the fuck is your problem with cats
Explain yourself. Don't just say "I'm a dog person" or "cats are gross", explain like a grown up.
And when it came right down to it? He found the concept of a litter box like... offensive and disgusting. That was his hang-up with cats. If you owned a cat it meant you had to keep a box of cat shit in your house, and he found that fucking disgusting on an intolerable level. Especially because many cat owners don't clean the litter box every day, so it's just sitting there.
And that was it. He just had a big hang up about that. From there he like, invented other things to be mad about but brass tacks that was his reason.
I will leave that up to the individual to determine if that's childish and asinine to get huffy about. I certainly think so.

I haven't bought anything on Amazon in a month because they refuse to pull ads from Breitbart. I even emailed Jeff Bezos about it.

Preferring one or the other is fine. Not having any special affection for them because you're like, allergic or something is understandable.
But every now and again you run into a self-identified "dog person" or "cat person" who is more than just all about their dog or cat, they're downright hostile to the other sort of pet and they're kinda weird about it.
Often it's based on negative personal experience or trauma (as such prejudice often is) but sometimes its just inexplicable animosity that should probably get unpacked.
Dogs are good, cats are good.
It is okay to prefer one over the other.
If you are poopy about it, y tho
I mean
If like me you have a trauma induced phobia and just prefer not to be around that kind of animal, I can't really hold that against someone
I've worked on it a lot and I can stand being around dogs now, I'll pet them and such so long as they keep their mouths away from my hands and don't like, lick me, I'm good
fuck gendered marketing

god damnit, I can't get the HMO through work because I live in a different state, the cheapest health insurance I can get is absolute fucking garbage, still costs $214 a month, and has a $3500 deductible
so under the ACA if I don't buy it I get a fine, because the dog shit is $12 under being 8% of my annual income, but I definitely won't be able to afford to use any of these except the most expensive one, which I can't really afford the monthly fee for, and is over 10% of my income and should qualify me for a subsidy - but won't because the dog shit exists

It's childish to blow it up, sure, but....
i like cats and I don't have one specifically for that reason. It makes me retch to clean up litter boxes.
Man reading newspapers must be really hard for foreign speakers, because they're the hardest to translate and there's tons of words and idioms you've probably never seen before
and that aren't logical in the slighest

if I HAVE to buy health insurance I might as well buy the most expensive insurance and actually use it, and be condemned to live with my nephew forever because I'm spending a huge percentage of my net income on healthcare at age 32 without any chronic conditions
Every time I have to deal with health insurance I experience a knot of hatred for conservatives the country over who like this nonsense

if you have a litter box (that gets used) you are giving up one of the great benefits of cats, namely that they dispose of their shit themselves

Someone e-mailed me that photo yesterday.
What's funny is that right now, laying in my room, I have the pistol, and that light and sight, so I can totes do that.
I might.
But... but...

It's fantastic
I know, but do I REALLY need a capture card and HD splitter right now, as opposed to tomorrow or Friday or even next week?
My opinion on cats: "eh"
I do not hate cats. I just don't really care either way. I am just neutral on them.
