Enzyme had a cat
but it wouldn't eat the penny he tried to feed it, so he threw it at a window, but it survived and so he threw it again.

Now, I've missed this particular slice of internet drama.
Sounds like fun.

Why would someone repeatably pelt a cat at a window?
I don't see what one would hope to achieve by repeatbly pelting the cat, thud, thud, thud, crack, thud, thud, thud, crack, thud, thud, thud, smash? I mean, if you don't want the cat, you could give it to a home or something, rather than attempting to break your double glazing windows in such a way, until blood and cartilidge pretudes from the cat, matting it's fur. I don't see what satisfaction one would get from hearing the pathetic final 'meow's from what was once reckognizable as a cat, and then thinking it is a good idea to force coins down it's throat.
Don't get me wrong, different people are into different things, but that just seems a bit wrong to me. Heh, I guess it's a funny old world.

It'd be a stupid cat that hung around for the second attempt anyway.
For the record, the cat is right now on my knee, enjoying the only warmth in the house.

I thought it wasn't true, to be honest.
I can't see what one would hope to gain out of it.

Worse...
You would gain things: wounds. And you'd lose a penny.
I have no idea what goes on inside al's head, but sometimes it scares me.

So you agree that only a complete and utter monster would do such a thing?

Is it the sort of thing that needs saying?
I think I'm on the record here as being pretty cat-daft. But if you want it spelled out, then yes: I think that the arbitrary infliction of suffering on any sentient thing is abhorrent. Especially cats. And with the possible exception of slugs (though I'm not sure of their sentience).
I'm not convinced that the arbitrary destruction of an inanimate object is entirely without blame, either.

But what is the morality of breaking a window?
And how does the use of a cat in this matter affect the morality?
And should we teach our children about sex?

I wasn't asking you
I want to know if Enzyme think we should teach "our" children about sex. It's bad enough he fucks off drinking on friday night leaving me to look after them alone, and I'm not letting him shirk out of having "that" talk.

He's completely
divorced from his own feelings. Cat's are just objects to him, he doesn't see them as real.

I thought I couldn't be shocked anymore on this site, but I was wrong.
Maybe _I_ should pay him a visit myself, and see how _he_ likes it, maybe with something he loves*.
I'm going to come around and let loose a honey badger in his kitchen to make a mess of his pots and pans. SEE HOW HE LIKES THAT ONE !
* should he be capable of such a thing.

Frankly, whatever animals you set loose in my house at the moment
won't make any difference. I've got the builders in doing work on two rooms, the hall, the landing, and the stairs.
I live in a bombsite.

Did you hear about the gynacologist?
He painted his hallway through the postbox.

Honey badgers
"The rudely awakened honey badger comes out of its hole. The monitor lizard wants to eat it for lunch. 'Fuck that!' says Mrs. honey badger, 'I will nom you to death! Let me get my Honda Accord.'".
Those fuckers are vicious!
