Reposting a question I saw on reddit like a decade ago. My favorite answer I read was, “I’d take my 100 dogs home and live like a king.”
Personally, I have two cats, Sansa and Shere Khan. For both, I could significantly narrow down the options by seeing which cats meowed at me the most. (I swear I didn’t teach them to yell, but here we are.) For both, I could bring in a dog to discern which cats weren’t scared of dogs. For Sansa, I could wait until dinnertime and put down some wet food, then see who hems and haws about eating it despite having screamed for it. That might not be enough to get it down to just one each, but oh well. I could use 5 or 10 more cats.
Can I have props?
If yes, give me a kitchen sink, cutting table and some tomatoes.
Upon the mere sound of water running in the sink, my little bastard will run to my feet and start yelling because he thinks I’m preparing meat. Then I show him I’m actually preparing a salad, and offer him a tiny piece of tomato.
He sniffs and walks away in one swift disinterested motion.
Whoever doesn’t scream at my feet when I’m at the sink, or shows any interest in the tomato is out of the list 🍅
