Did You Know?
Cats spend more than two-thirds of their lives asleep; as kittens, they sleep an average of eighteen hours a day and as adults, they sleep an average of sixteen hours a day.
I know that it is true. I read it on the Internet. 
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I'd heard that about lions but didn't realize cats were about as extreme.

It is also true that they are hyper-active during their waking hours. Our 2-month old kitten is never stationary, except while asleep.

This is why our cat is named Dij: it's short for "Digital" because as a kitten he was either ON1 or OFF2; there was nothing in between.
1 - And doing a Wall of Death round the room
2 - And you could have pulled all his fur out hair by hair and he wouldn't wake up

So, about the pronunciation of "GIF"...

You're saying you're pronouncing it "dig it all"??

This is one of those videos showing people who are not dancing to the music being played, isn't it?
Still, I know exactly what you mean by not being able to look away...

Yet more proof that they're smarter than us.

My wife and I are allergic to the damned felines! They get kicked out of our house!

You are in a heap of trouble here! Or is it on the stack? Not sure, I'll check on the QA.

You know that Internet loves cat videos.
So you should set up a video camera to capture the kicking. The net would love it.

I did not mean "kick" literally. Since no cats ever enter our house, it has never been necessary to actually get rid of any cat.

I know it's true by simple observation of my cats.
16 hours sleeping
1 hour fighting
15 minutes eating
10 minutes litterbox
1 minute barfing
remainder - purring and cuddling or otherwise walking in front of the monitor "look at me!!!"

I don't think you can copyright something that's so incredibly common.
Mind, you could make it a trademark -- but who would want to?

I can just picture that...

Did this post[^] inspire yours? I was thinking more along your lines when I read it.

We lost power at the house yesterday (I'm working from home during the Kung Flu panic), and my UPS simply died (thank god for the auto-save feature in Visual Studio). We've lost internet connectivity twice during the week, as well.
I've already ordered another UPS, but the infrastructure seems to be pretty freakin' weak around here...

WTF?
Have the utilities engineers decided to reduce the risk of catching the coronavirus by working from staying at home and putting their feet up with a beer?
