I would be a cat.

You wake up, get fed, get cuddled, you go out, ignore your owners all day, shag a couple of other cats, go back to the house when you are hungry / thirsty, get fed, get watered, sleep in front of the telly on the most comfortable chair in the room, get cuddled, sleep.

You then repeat this every day.

Also, you have nine lives of this as well, that's a winner !

I'd be a black panther ... cause it's a big cat. :)
Posted by arsepuppy, 14:29, 11th June 2003:
 
And then you can hold a gun to the cat's head whilst trying to jam it into a cashpoint...

Well, I was expecting to see a poll... I'm very dissapointed now. :(

Posted by beargod, 15:48, 11th June 2003:
 
I like to think of the best way to kill cats like they kill mice and birds
Posted by Redmaiden, 19:21, 11th June 2003:
 
I am a dirty lemur or maybe a red panda (minus snuffly cubs)
Posted by Victor Menendez, 19:52, 11th June 2003:
 
I want to be a big snarling fox-hound in a (probably) vain attempt to re-ignite an old argument.
Posted by chandler, 19:58, 11th June 2003:

Posted by coolcat88, 21:45, 11th June 2003:

Posted by coolcat88, 21:45, 11th June 2003:

we were sitting around one day in the first year at uni, doing not a lot (as per usual) and simon suddenly said "Dolphins are Babysitters"
and then our lives changed forever

or something like that. it was all very random and slightly disturbing
Posted by arsepuppy, 14:38, 14th June 2003:
 
No, Dolphins are Posh Sharks. I know this is true because my friend said so.
Posted by Redmaiden, 18:18, 14th June 2003:
 
bless simon, he is a very random boy :-D
Posted by beargod, 18:52, 14th June 2003:
 
It was in the first or second week of uni, it did have significance, but from a conversation which finished ten minutes before.
Posted by coolcat88, 22:01, 14th June 2003:
