The human descended from friendlier primates who used a relationship with cats as a survival tactic. Cats were used to keep rodents from eating and polluting surplus grain kept in storage. The cats had the humans harvest the grain and store it to help facilitate hunting down mice.

No, humans would all be dead and eaten if they could do that. Cats would cut out the middlemen.

Can we go back to spilling our guts? Whatever is going on here makes no sense.

yeah, for real, ****'s getting depressing in here.

so Chula Vista's a cool guy, knows a lot about a lot, probably has some awesome stories to tell about everything.

Getting to know Neapolitan in plug lately has been really cool.

WD's still my bud, probably the only person that's gonna get a card from me this Christmas.

Batlord's still a hilarious pain in the ass.

you should stick around. from what you've said before it doesn't seem like there's a lot to do otherwise.

Hang dude. Don't let this one thread ruin the entire experience. Except for the pet stuff I dig what you have to say around here.

(and I'd dig the pet stuff more if you'd only soften the edges just a bit)

Why? it seems perfect for you. Lemme do some due diligence:

JWB: an interesting person. Smart but inexperienced. I hope you are in or going to college.

Ki: Good/lovable person but I wish you had more education. Sorry to be so crass about it but it seems like you don't know how to articulate your thoughts as well as you could. I want you to thrive and be all you can be and such. Better grammar would be good.

LiL: One of my favorite people here. Has personal hangups like all of us. Smart lady (great grammar) and super cool in general.
