my cat can actually take me out, i'm not joking.
he hides under the bookcase, behind this little rug we have draped over it. when you walk past, the cat rushes out, jumps up and attacks you directly behind the knee, completely unbalancing you and sending you right down to the ground.
then he runs, jumps to the top of a chair, misses, falls, and hides in embarrassment.
I HAVE JUST TOLD A STORY ABOUT MY CAT

Do not forget that Achewood is essentially some dude telling stories about his cats on a (semi) daily basis. Although, I guess the mandate to do so becomes a lot more prominent when huge vintage American cars and 34 AIBOs show up at your house randomly.

My cat LETS me catch him doing things, just so he can look cute and innocent afterward. He gets some sadistic satisfaction out of steering me away from seeming stern.
Once the alliteration began I had to keep going with it...

Personally I disagree. I think it's amusing when we are reminded that they're cats in a human world. I'm the kind of reader who needs devices like the Underground or the even more bizarre [url="https://achewood.com/index.php?date=08302005]hulls"[/url] to keep the human/cat boundaries from bothering me.

I totally agree with this. I think Onstad's concept of "hulls" were one of the most brilliantly funny aspects of early Achewood. I have been a little disappointed that they seem to have dropped out of the world.

I think I know what America is like and frankly I'm very scared of it. I do not want to be anywhere near that place.
It is eating at a chain restaurant while thinking racist thoughts about the staff and then going home to watch reality shows and have bland, vanilla missionary sex and hope get off on the idea of being so kinky as to leave the lights on so you can each see your flabby bodies.
There is no single America, but if we sift through it all we'll end up with something profoundly frightening.

The best (and by "best" I mean absolutely horrible) thing about San Francisco is how the people who now live there have abandoned all of the values of the people who popularized it, while often proclaiming themselves to be the sole protector of these values. But contemporary Caucasian SF culture was, more than any other concept, founded on Kerouac's love for travel, his desire to embrace all humans, and his desire to find beauty in all Americans. The original hippies were running from something, so their xenophobia is excusable to a point, but at this time all SF has to justify its elitism is the apparent belief that slipping someone a roofie is an alternative sexual position.

A cat jumping into an open laundry basket doesn't count as you catching it. Next time, at least pick it up to prove the cat doesn't just jump out while laughing at your foolishness.
