- This is a good idea, except you're taking a simple approach. Instead you
- should choose something that will either make people think you're crazy, or
- your life a living hell when you call your cat. For example:
-
- "Where's 'My Youthful Innocence That I Lost So Long Ago In The Big War'"?
- "Where's 'My Genitals Which I Must Promptly Scratch'"?
-
- Alternately, when you call your cat, choice names could be:
-
- "Here kitty kitty, Here 'Is Some Free Beer Broads and Booze For All of You'"
- "Here kitty kitty, Here 'You Disgusting Insect Ridden Piece of Sludge Dogcat'"
-
- Realize that if you choose any of these names, or names along these lines,
- that it will take many severe and harsh beatings before your cat is able to
- recognize its own name. Don't worry, I was able to teach "My Manhood is on
- Display For Many Lovely Ladies to Witness" its name in a few short months of
- yelling.
