People are Strange

[Ten]

So I was on a neo board where people were throwing a lot of spiteful insults at each other. In my reply to something absurd, I called the girl a silly goose.

She reacted with something to the effect of, "i'm soooo hurt you called me a goose ha i'm laughing so hard at you right now lolololol"

...o.0 I use silly goose as a term of endearment.
It seems she thought I was trying to insult her.
This saddens me.

[xio]

Wow. Some people, huh?

[Ten]

Also, this one girl today (who had cats named Fortunestone, Lovekit, Kyrstalkit, and Leafsky) role played her cat as singing the alphabet.

1. Cats can't sing.
2. Cats don't have a written language and therefore no alphabet

[Gosh]

People on Neopets are so...strange, I agree. I have some good friends on Neopets, but a bunch of people...-shakes head-

Leafsky?

I can understand Leafkit. And even Skykit, if there was a kit with light blue eyes or something. But Leafsky?

[Ten]

How would a cat look like a leaf?

"if there was a kit with light blue eyes"
Cats are born with their eyes closed.

"if there was a kit with light blue eyes"
Cats are born with their eyes closed.

Plus, all cats have blue/gray eyes as a kit, and their color develops later.

[Gosh]

If you say so. Perhaps the mother could be a rouge who didn't name her kits for a while? Or maybe the cat was a kittypet for most of its kithood and then was accepted into a Clan, and they had to have a different name (ex. Firestar).

Regardless, we're talking about the absurdity of the name Leafsky. x)

[Ten]

"Perhaps the mother could be a rouge who didn't name her kits for a while?"

Why would she hesitate to name her beloved offspring?

"Or maybe the cat was a kittypet for most of its kithood and then was accepted into a Clan"

and given a proper warrior name? Wouldn't have leaf in it unless the cat were green.

[Spot]

Hmm. Well, it could also be because a cat is named after a cat that's passed away, like in memory. Like, I recieved a kit on a site long ago and named it Fernkit after its...grandfather, I believe? Long time ago. Anyways, when it reached 2 moons old I was told that Fernkit was to have green eyes (that was their system) and the prefix suited his name by fluke.

You know, speaking of putting off naming kits for a while, I did a tad bit of research and some villages - countries even - with a high morality rate can put off naming their babies for about two weeks or rarely, months even.

I do not wish to contradict anyone, but perhaps Ten could be a little more lenient with bios? =3? -gunned down-
