  • Believe this. My cats have been offered at least 20 other types of toys during their 10 years. From cheap or free to stupid expensive. No toys kept their attention for more than a day, except for those plastic springs. They make keep you up at night chasing the things. A down side is that they will lose them, so you’ll have to keep replenishing the supply every 6months or so. And there will be scads of the things under the refrigerator and bathtub.

    In Portland, we have a huge video store called Movie Madness. $3 rent for almost any movie in existence. With an actual museum of Hollywood costumes, models and props around you. And you can sip a draft beer while you browse. It’s always humorous when cable news portrays Portland as being some uncivilized hellhole.



  • Former heavy smoker here, quit two decades ago. It creates a strong craving, which briefly supplies pleasure when you appease it. It provides (or at least used to) social connection with other smokers, particularly at “smoking breaks”.

    And it gives you something recognizable to do while waiting for something. Rather than sitting there, staring out with a stupid look on your face, you instead sit there smoking a cigarette.

    It’s an incredibly difficult addiction to break, it’s expensive, and these days identifies you as either very old or more or less a loser. Avoid, avoid.
