@heartny@Lynnerizer I observe national chocolate day and national ice cream day multiple times a week most weeks. I mean practice makes perfect right? I really know how to celebrate those now really well.
@narfcake isn’t that every day that ends in Y?
Y don’t you feed me?
Y are you leaving me alone? I want attention.
Y do you keep bothering me? It is time for nap and meditation.
Y are you not awake yet? — I can fix that!
@chienfou@mehcuda67@xobzoo That reminds me, I have a “cat-faced” spider living on one of my window ledges. Although it looks more like an indignant little man face to me!
@kuoh During the part of the Pokemon Go mania when there were various Teams (Mystic, Valor and Instinct), I briefly produced a T-shirt for Team IDGARA featuring a graphic of an international-NO slashed circle superimposed over a rodent’s rump. It had a few sales, but was not an overall success.
@kuoh@werehatrack Took me a while to decode that but yeah, like it. That was probably the problem – took people too long to decode. We are a culture of short-attention-span people now.
EDIT now, regarding shirts, depending on my mood, I either pick something that is easy to understand at a glance, or else something that likely needs a lot of study and will just leave most people confused. Sometimes you want that feeling.
@kuoh@werehatrack@xobzoo hate to admit I had to look this up and Google AI told me the answer. Between that and our pattern of AI art requests, I’m sure the AIs think we are a very perverted people. But since they (the AIs) are trying to act like us, they have no choice but to try to out-perv us. So the AI future might be fun after all!
@kuoh@mycya4me@werehatrack@xobzoo So even if you’re not good at calculus you can still be very good at accumulating calculus. Another example of why the world is just not fair.
I’m pretty sure the calculus is what the dental hygienist was trying to remove from my teeth last week!
I am pretty sure you aren’t supposed to eat calculus, although someone suggested it should be part of your breakfast. I think what they meant is you should read calculus prior to reading the morning newspaper while eating your breakfast. Eating calculus isn’t going to make it go away as you discovered at your dentist’s last week.
@lonocat Our orange tabby Nicolai used to have a habit of sneaking spaghetti and other pastas from any unguarded plate. Got tomato sauce all over his face, even ears; he would bury his face in it.
@lonocat Somewhere I have pics from when a whole event was done at the Twin Pines Mall Lone Pine Mall back in 2015. Doc Brown’s van, several DeLoreans (recreated and stock) – it was pretty cool.
Alas, the mall isn’t fairing as well in more recent years:
@lonocat It’s also National Text Your Ex Day. I will ignore both, as well as National Publicist Day. I feel that we should probably not make a big deal out of that last one.
I observe National Chocolate Day, National Cheesecake Day and National Pizza Day. All very healthy days for sure.
@heartny
I observe those days too, at least once a week!
@heartny @Lynnerizer I observe national chocolate day and national ice cream day multiple times a week most weeks. I mean practice makes perfect right? I really know how to celebrate those now really well.
Cinnamon Buns Day sounds appealing …
I observe many such days from a safe distance, often from a place of concealment.
When is national catshirts day again?
@narfcake isn’t that every day that ends in Y?
Y don’t you feed me?
Y are you leaving me alone? I want attention.
Y do you keep bothering me? It is time for nap and meditation.
Y are you not awake yet? — I can fix that!
@narfcake @pmarin OMG We have another cat owner!
Y are you not interested in playing with me?
@mycya4me @pmarin Owner?
I observe that poor cinnamon bun cat’s lower jaw…
(I’m also worried about that cinnamon bun itself, unless that’s some major cat flab supporting it, in which case I’m doubly-concerned for the cat.)
((Now that I check it again, I’m concerned about all of that cat’s legs.))
@xobzoo Yeah! I just noticed that the bottom half of the cinnamon bun looks uncomfortably like a cat’s head!!!
@Kyeh @xobzoo Gives an interesting interpretation to “You are what you eat.”
@Kyeh @mehcuda67 @xobzoo
Maybe it’s a Southern “cat-head biscuit”

Today might be a second National Taci Day with deals available at some locations.
Because the 4th of Oct has been the traditional day for this heretofore.
I suggest observing ALL the days today
/image cinnamon taco
National Coffee Day ofc
But did you know International Coffee Day is not on the same day but a few days later.
But to me any day is coffee day
/showme the goddess Cerridwen drinking a large cup of black coffee
I’m not sure if it’s an official day or not, but I celebrate Free Slurpee Day on July 11th.
Since I’m not sure which is the national IDGAF day, just to be safe I tend to observe it everyday.

@kuoh @pmarin
@pmarin @werehatrack I actually like math in general, but calculus is where I have to draw the limit.
KuoH
@kuoh @pmarin @werehatrack You should integrate more calculus in your diet; it’s part of a balanced breakfast.
But more pressing, don’t dismiss this shirt too quickly; it’s nice.

@kuoh @pmarin @werehatrack @xobzoo yep that’s what they tell me when they clean my teeth!
@kuoh @mycya4me @werehatrack @xobzoo So even if you’re not good at calculus you can still be very good at accumulating calculus. Another example of why the world is just not fair.
@kuoh @mycya4me @pmarin @werehatrack @xobzoo I have a hard time differentiating between the two types.

@Kidsandliz @kuoh @mehcuda67 @pmarin @werehatrack @xobzoo HEHEHEHE!
@kuoh @mehcuda67 @pmarin @werehatrack @xobzoo WHY?
@kuoh @mycya4me @pmarin @werehatrack @xobzoo
Seems like both are just a failure to solve calculus problems…
@kuoh @pmarin @werehatrack you forgot to flag @carl669 on that t-shirt.
October 6 we celebrate every year.
Badger Appreciation Day.
We celebrate by eating black and white foods… Like chocolate and vanilla cake layered together, etc.
(I have always loved Badgers, we have a cat named Badger, and so became a joke holiday in our family that we celebrate each year)
@OnionSoup That does sound fun. Probably tired of hearing this but whatever
/youtube badger badger mushroom mushroom
@OnionSoup
/youtube honey badger don’t care
@OnionSoup I think chocolate chip ice cream would work for that too…
National vodka day, that everyday
@Star2236 Da
Not really, so my calendar for the past couple of years is rather strange.

The bot is not Escher, but that’s a better attempt than usual.
@werehatrack reminds me of the goat cat AI in some thread somewhere recently.
@Kidsandliz @werehatrack I think I had a goat squirrel which was also quite terrifying.
Perhaps it’s as the universe intended.
(My AI request looks like it failed so deleted that part)
