Comments on: Sugar and Spice become Patty and Selma

I do seem to crop up under the oddest of search results.
Going through life named Sugar or Spice would be enough to traumatise any cat, and would probably lead to years of treatment with a pet therapist. I did toy with the idea of giving them ridiculous names like the pedigree cats seem to have – Sunbeam Snuffilufigus Fluffkins IV and Wiffle Jalapeno Seaflower of Belleville were top of my list.
You’ve opened my eyes to the dark side of what I had thought were purely cute and cuddly bouncing mammals. A quick Google reveals that Kangaroos can indeed be Evil, and clearly need to be tackled in a most heroic and unsentimental manner. The article does say that they eat grass, but I bet given half a chance they’d happily chow down on a baby or two.
I’m actually growing bored of the boring hair, so I may well be adding to the collection of silly hair-as-art pictures in the future. Incidentally, 1990 was a bad hair year for me really, and the one third from left shows the result of a drenching that no amount of hairspray could cope with (I was listed in the Guinness Book of Records as having the most flammable head on the planet).
I think you’re right – you really should have a site, complete with tales of kangaroo tacking, and I insist that you send me the URL when it’s done.

Thank god you’ve changed your cats’ names. I’m also glad you put those “12 dumbest comic book covers” in because that’s how I found your site. I’m writing a story featuring myself as a kangaroo-tackler and needed to know what kangaroos eat and specific places where they might live and be most Dangerous and Heroic-to-tackle. Put in “dangerous kangaroos”, and voila!-worldofbadger. It did not help my story in the slightest, but I particularly enjoyed those pictures of your various haircuts. That third from right was spectacularly 80′s in the way of Say Anything (that kid who couldn’t remember where he lived); third from left: what WERE you thinking that year???; and I applaud your courageous return to boring hair. I might name a kangaroo after it. Now I think it’s closing in on time to make a new website for myself with [unmentionable app], I’m jealous of yours.

Good move – you’ve returned dignity to the cats and yourself
