We need to get back to pet-shaming more. It's funny, and they don't understand, nor do they have the faculties to have their feelings hurt by it.
So, you’re telling me the cat was napping? The things they’re famous for?
Jk, I still like it.
My cats would be yelling immediately, they hate car rides.
Lol mine just about throws up when I take her 5 mins to the vet. Unfortunately for her, she has to do day-long road trips once or twice a year to visit family. But after she chills out, she's quite an easy rider. Just very anxious at the beginning haha. I love her so much 😭
The difference is that you or I would be putting the cats in the car. This cat got in the vehicle, passed out, and woke up on a road trip.
I used to think "snuck" was correct, but TIL.
Never trust Merriam-Webster. I don't know if the errors I found are fixed now, but the fact they existed in the first place is disappointing. The only trustworthy English dictionary is Oxford.
Edit: Snuck is a US informal term, according to the backup dictionary, Collins. This dictionary is riddled with ads, but also multiple sources for alternative definitions.
Sneaked feels weird ngl
Though, interestingly, it doesn't feel weird to me for the past form, only the past participle!
"snuck" is perfectly fine, as long as that's what you've heard since birth. 🤷
Looks like kitty is along for the ride today, because I'm not taking a 2+ hour detour
Yea, but what do you do? No litter box, no food and water ... also, the guy has a cat meowing at him in his work van all day.
Stop and buy supplies of course! Even most grocery stores carry disposable litter pans, or just a plastic bin, along with food. Even a paper bowl will work for water.
NTA
Holy moly proper use of the regular past tense of sneak?? I haven't seen that on the internet ever. "I sneaked my way into the concert, but I also snuck several beers into the venue."
Hmmmm
My German speaking brain (as a second language, my native language is English) is interpreting “my way” and “several beers” as accusative objects, and the repeated use of “into” as clues which would make me want to use the same conjugation for both. I could see “I sneaked into the concert but I also snuck several beers in.”
The letter of shame
Which is just the most adorable letter
He doesn't know what you're doing but wants to be a part of it :>
My uncle took his cat to the race track because of this 😂
2 hours later
meow (by the way I am here)
Sounds like Dad should pay more attention to his environment, and to securing his work van ...
sounds like someone needs to understand I'm not going to inspect my car every god damned morning with a clipboard like some kind of an obsessed psychopath.
- 5am - roll out of bed and 3S
- 5:30 - make/eat breakfast
- 5:45 - fill thermos with coffee
- 5:55 - get in the truck and drive to the site
- 7am - work
my dad did the above for 40-ish years. I did it with him for about 10.
never did we "pay attention to our environment". know why? because we were too preoccupied with making sure we had all the shit we needed for the day. like water, food, and most importantly tools/materials.
know what sucks? getting to a job site and realizing you forgot your one tool that's required to work that day.
know what doesn't suck? bringing your cat to work by mistake. if anything, it might just be the highlight of your day because you have a truck-buddy that's soft and fluffy and will not ask about moving a wall or bitching about how the pitch of your sewer outlet is too low.
