Back on AppleInsider a long time ago we had a thread about cats and watermelons and Steve Jobs. To commemorate that silliness I fused all the stuff into one signature "Steve Jobs ate my cat's watermelon". CoolToddHunter IM'd me asking about the quote. Turns out that the original was from a movie:

Quote:
Ah. I think the original sig was a reference to the movie Rubin & Ed, in which Rubin (repeatedly) states, "My cat can eat a whole watermelon." Funny how stuff like that warps on the internet...
Anybody else remember that thread?

Steve Jobs ate my cat's watermelon.

I remember someone saying: "I always wanted a watermelon in the shape of a cat. Sadly, instead, I have a cat in the shape of a watermelon." In a similar thread. I used it as a startup screen for my dad's work PC.

It's not every day you see a cat standing in a lake, rolling a watermelon. God bless the interweb.

I wonder if the raccoon stole the watermelon from the cat before or after it attacked fermilab?

It's a Maine Coon!!!

(no, really, it is)



*note: I suggest we leave the meme as-is, as saying "coon's watermelon" would make everyone here sound like my father.

So it goes.

I fucking LOVE Maine Coons! My family adopted a stray and he's one of the most mellow, easygoing cats on the planet. And he's really big - around 15 lbs, and during the winter he gets that huge fluffy winter coat.

Me too. My precious Kitty-Gato is a Maine Coon (also a previous stray), but on the runt-end at a svelte 10lbs. In fact, when Googling Maine Coons for a link I had a Holy Shit moment scrolling down the wiki page, as the white cat near the bottom is nearly Poopy's twin (except Gato is odd-eyed and has a couple small black splotches).

So it goes.

Biggest, friendliest cat I've ever encountered was a Maine Coon. You could pick him up or roll him over and scratch his belly like a dog, and he loved it. If you wanted to pet the thing for half an hour, it would let you. The thing *never* got testy or swatted at you for petting it, and almost never ran away from people unless there was a ton of racket going on (party or something). If I ever get a cat it WILL be a Maine Coon. You could even take the thing to the vet and he was like "OK man, whatever... just give me some more food when we come back."

...into the light of a dark black night.
