Some of you have never picked up the hit podcast, Welcome To Nightvale written by Joseph Fink and Jeffery Cranor and listened to a whole bunch of episodes in a passion, caught up to the most recent episode, ended up getting tired for waiting for a new episode, stopped listening for around a year and still feel guilty about it and it shows.
humans are so terrifyingly imaginative I would bet you like a few dollars if an alien empire showed up on our doorstep they’d have NO IDEA what parts of our culture are real and happened and what parts of our culture are fake but popular
Vet clinics often have litters of kittens to raise. Either they’re too young for a shelter, too sickly, or the clinic intends to adopt them out when they’re big enough. Whatever the reason, nurses often end up raising kittens and giving them ‘temporary’ names.
The intention of these temporary names is that if you give the kitten a stupid name, you have something to call it other than ‘the middle black male’, but because it’s a stupid name you wont get emotionally attached and end up keeping it. Again.
Which is how some nurses end up with cats that have names like ‘Flea bus’ and ‘Trash bag’.
