You absolutely hit it out of the park today.


Happy Sunday!

Thank you!

I think my favorite this week is the little alien directing the actions of the human mechanism. Some days I feel so removed from the social norm around me that I feel like a part of my brain is just moving me around so I can appear to belong to the group.

"behind every to bean"
"great thing about cats"
"managed to adjust the clock"
"cat secretly goes to work"
"playing the guitar"
"It's Friday"
"you and I find a dark room"
"puny little human minds"
"telling people bout my cats"

Thanks for another fun roundup, SCE! It was extra-needed this week! Have a better week ahead!

Brilliant!!

Thank you for another great edition of Sunday LOLcats! 👏👏

I got a new microwave and you have to be Albert Einstein to figure out how to disable the lock.

My stove has a button under a clear plastic cover, andit's old enough that the protective cover over both the up and down buttons has cracked, and it's next tpimpossible to get either to budge. Unfortunately the same buttons are ised got oven temperature also - actually everything ehich can be set up or down. I haven't tried the back end of a wooden spoon yet, but thet's going to be my next step.

I needed this. Imagine we all do.

"Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be A Long, Long Time)"

She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour: 9:00 AM
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact, it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
And all the science, I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man
A rocket man

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man!
Burning out his fuse up here alone

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time

flight and wife
home and alone
time and find

My ear perceves then as rymes - or at leeast half-rhymes.

honestly, as much as I enjoy it, that is a detail I've never been able to make out.

It is unusual to have a whole poem that has no exact rhymes, only half rhypmes, but they really are pretty common in English.

I can claim to be 1/8 Scottish through my father's mother, but the rest of me is German with a touch of English.

English poetry tends to use both rhyme and rhythm, but other languages don't necessarily use both, and some use neither. Haiku is not the only Japanese poetic form whic merely counts syllables. Ancient Hebrew poetry was basred on short stanzas of saying the same thing twice in different ways. Ancient Latin poertry never rhymed but was based on some very strict rhythms with thankfully some allowed exceptions. Classical Greek poetry didn't rhyme either. I really do think it is our differences which broaden our horizons.

edition of awwwwwwwww and squeeeeeee. The photos were breathtaking. So many smiles and giggles. Once again, thank you.

Great, as usual.

Many thanks, SCE! As usual, they were all great and I loved them all. My favorite was the "No sheep, Sherlock" post, since my real last name is Sherlock. Happy Sunday!

Times such as these make your weekly effort so much more appreciated. A thousand thanks.

You have given me many years of joy. My first activity on Sunday, before I even get out of bed, is to read your post. I wish for many blessings on you.

said nobody ever. Thanks for a great collection SCE!

(IIRC one involvong Odin, Thor, and a cellist) had a scene where som professors of music were tryinh to convince someone that, regardless of how one defined the words "too," "much", and "Mozart," there was no such thing as "too much Mozart." As you imply, the same is true of the words "too," "many," "cat," and "pictures."

"Find a darkroom" funny,

Whether to anxiety of last months, or devastation now, my heart sings when I take in your funny and beautiful posts! THANK YOU!

Thanks for your munched needed laughs. Best gift anyone could provide.

I finally joined when I found it opened only for members. I became a Star member in a panic that I may miss LOL Cats! Thanks SCE

FYI this cartoonist is Tom Gauld:
