helenicThe summer months have apparently turned livejournal into some sort of virtual petting zoo. Thus far, innocently scrolling my friends page, in the last 24 hours I have been unexpectedly presented with the following:
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif){kind=small}
evil_nick's mollusc baby octopus - cute, slimy, and strangely edible-looking.
_matt__'s kiiiiitten! small cat thing! so cuuuuuute! I love the way it hasn't quite worked out it needs to put all four paws on the ground. confused baby fuzzy creature! awwww!
edlwiess1's "camel cricket", apparently. What. The. Fuck. The carapace is quite pretty, but I totally wouldn't want to meet one in my bathroom.
Well, internets, what strange and wonderful creatures are you going to fling at me next? Which beasties will take to roaming the vast prairies of /~libellum/friends? If anyone's taking requests, I'd like more kittens, please, and golden lion tamarinds, and lesbians tigers, and penguins. And perhaps a pangolin, although they're slightly overrated (and nothing like Vestal Virgins).

on 2005-05-12 02:59 pm (UTC)When you get cats, will you get a kitten, or be ethical and get a grown up one? I don't think I've ever in my life played with a kitten, and I feel horribly bereft, so I'm trying to persuade everyone I know to get kittens.

on 2005-05-12 05:47 pm (UTC)the kitten is SO STUPIDLY CUTE. I was never entirely sure whether you were saying "miaow miaow miaow" or "yum yum yum" because it all sort of blurred into each other. And I do remember the Kate Bush caterwauling! I was crying with laughter! for about an hour! I got cramp! And we played Scrabble, it was great.

D'oh!
