Ponies canter off ~ it's Meerkat time...

Well what's wrong with that ~ and ok I hold my hands up I have a pair of eyelash curlers ~ which reminds me of a thread I meant to start,...

I have to admit to being a fan I get bored very easily!

 

Former president Bill Clinton was asked questions about My Little Pony on NPR over the weekend on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me.

 

Don't mongooses eat cobras and shit? You'd be insane to start a war against those crazy bastards.

 

We prefer eccentric and brave rather than insane

And also we have one of those "rolly, rolly bag on the end of a stick to catch snakes with" things.

Seemples

 

Don't wait. Tell us.

 

Can I nap in the meantime?

 

*raises hand*

I've always wondered - and since you are -distantly- related - why aren't multiples of mongooses called mongeese? like a pair of glasses with a slightly crazy tilt to the question . . .

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongoose#Name

No relation to geese, with which I have no quarrel.

 

you miss all the plot when you ffwd over them.

 

I believe ORSE was aiming for the fact, that you, the mighty mere cats, are in relation with the, oh so mere, mongooses, and thus requested an "inside" answer from thy mighty mere cats.

Am I mistaken?

EDIT: I are, aren't I... (after a second glance on her post)

 

Mongeese is rarely used as the plural, but who is to say that it's wrong other than actual geese?

 

^

no, I was just beeing cheeky. I had no idea they are occ called mongeese in plural!

 

Because mongooses is a funnier word!

Oh I wouldn't quarrel with a goose ~ I'd get someone else to do it. But I mean what do they do exactly?

If only I had a tv that could do that. No sadly I misses out becauses I is too busy updating my cats facebook. ~ Or watching Midsommer Murders.

Who is sadder ~ the woman that creates a FB a/c for her cat or those that reply?

Personally I think grab any bit of fun you can get out of life.

Glad that's all been settled then

 

screw your meerkats, Phoenix Wright girls FTW

 

I know of no goose-related deaths but they can be very cantankerous - they bite and they can break limbs if they smack you with their wings. They are often used as guard animals - they set up a great noise if disturbed. We never harrassed grandpa's geese. just the poor sweet hapless turkeys. much nicer creatures.

 

I live close by a river where quite a few geese and swans nest, and it's not unusual to see a goose or swan take chase after someone who inadvertently wandered too close to the nests when eggs or babies are about. I once turned a corner and had a father goose spread his wings and hiss at me, and I RAN. This was one of those huge white geese, and the bugger chased after me for longer than I expected him to. I stayed clear of that section of riverside for weeks afterwards.

wrong thread Brony.

K'Ehleyr yes it is sad to give your cat a facebook page, but yeah replying to it is just as if not more sad.

 

Lighten up, filly.

 

lets not get into that again.
