Y'all got the memes covered, but we need some games

And no, not the types of games GD plays with each other and with the moderators.

I'll start us off, and continue from my favorite response each time, seem fair? Here goes:

You're sitting in your kitchen, eating Kraft™ Mac'N'Cheese® for dinner, when you hear piteous yowling at your front door. Evidently, a cat wants to be let in to your house. You make your way to the front door, your dinner still in hand, and open it to see what the big deal is. There, staring at you from your doorstep, is the biggest bobcat you've ever seen. http://imgur.com/al9PXL5.jpg What do you do?

What's a bobcat?

Laughing FishAug 18, 201610 votes

Small, but fierce predators, that can be found in most parts of the United States and Mexico. Despite only weighing 13-30 pounds, they can kill full grown deer.

Both are surprisingly vicious. They are far more willing to take risks than most larger cats. http://mediad.publicbroadcasting.net/p/nhpr/files/styles/x_large/public/201601/bobcat_by_seth_carlson_via_flickr.jpg

Too much fight contained in too little body. Had to good fortune of seeing one while out in the wild once.

Laughing FishAug 18, 20162 votes

Ah lucky. I have gone out looking for them before, but haven't been able to find one. The only things in Florida that don't remain hidden are mosquitoes, turtles and alligators. Although Bald Eagles can be spotted, which is always a very patriotic moment.

HexaDecimelAug 18, 20162 votes

Never seen an alligator in the wild, that would be so neat.

Laughing FishAug 18, 20168 votes

Pictures and videos really don't do them justice. They seem so surreal in the wild. They make no noise, and don't create ripples in the water. The way they just sink below the surface, and you can't see any signs they were ever there is cool af. They feel less like an animal living in nature, and more like an embodiment of nature itself.

On the other hand, I have lived most of my life never giving a second thought to what I might be swimming with.....

Laughing FishAug 18, 20164 votes

Nah, Alligators aren't that dangerous unless you do something really stupid like throw stuff at them (which, unfortunately, people do sometimes), or tie fish around your waist while fishing (again, some people do that). They don't understand humans, and always prefer to air on the side of caution. They are very patient, and will wait for easier prey. They eat dogs occasionally, but usually leave humans alone.

Now parasites, they are relentless. They are the main reason you can't just swim in any body of water in Florida. But from my understanding there are a lot less parasites in northern waters.

HexaDecimelAug 18, 20162 votes

What kind of parasites are you talking about? We don't have water snakes either.

Laughing FishAug 18, 20163 votes

Mostly various species of intestinal worms, mites, and some nasty bacteria that can cause ear, eye, and urinary track infections. Plus, there are the rare but nasty single celled parasites like Naegleria fowleri that eat your brain.

And yeah, water snakes won't seek you out, but you need to be careful when walking through shallow water, as if you step on them they try to take you with them.

HexaDecimelAug 18, 20162 votes

Damn thats freaky, Literally the only thing we have to worry about is a mother bear or startled moose.

Wildlife is op. We are just seeing whether reptiles and parasites are scarier than large mammals. Although the north has wolves, which is pretty damn cool.

Oh I can completely understand, I have startled a Bull Moose before, and while hiking by myself came across fresh Mountain Lion tracks.

Your heart really starts racing when you come across animals that can do you harm.

I just have a greater fear of large poisonous bugs, intestinal worms, and other creepy things.

Too many animals that can kill a human in canada give no fucks, and will likely consider attacking.

Thats actually pretty inaccurate and in most cases the animals we see up here will actively avoid humans. Outside of Polar Bears in the far north and starving animals they typically wont hunt humans. And the death rate from wild animal attacks are actually very low.

Situations were they attack generally result from them being startled or feeling cornered. Some cases it is due to rutting season, starvation, or rabies.

Cougar - Rarely seen, have been known to stalk smaller targets Bear - Typically only attack when startled or protecting young Wolf - Typically only attack when alone and starving Moose - Typically only attack when startled or during rut Elk - Typically only attack when startled or during rut

You will find more deaths from bee stings and dog attacks then anything else.

Same thing with Florida. Mosquitoes and pit bulls are the only animals that are actually dangerous here. Panthers are so very rare and skittish you are unlikely to ever even see one, the parasites can be avoided by simply not swimming/wading in stagnant water, and most snakes avoid populated areas and run away unless you accidentally step on them. And Alligators leave humans alone as they never want to fight their prey, even if they will win the fight easily

Instead of responding in a funny manner, I will respond in the correct manner. Like most felines, running from them is not the best idea, but they are skittish and will avoid a direct fight. Waving your hands above your head and screaming will frighten them, and they will run away. https://media.giphy.com/media/Fr51PdEf2NxOE/giphy.gif

The bobcat cowers and starts to slink slowly away. You walk slightly towards it, trying to get it out of your yard, and it panics and runs past you, through your doorway and into your house. On its way past, you get a glimpse of old scars and the clumped fur that indicates recent injuries marring its otherwise beautiful coat. Somebody - or some_thing_ - has been hurting this animal.

I got a game for the folks at Memes & Games to play:

Take a shot of cranberry juice every time your bot lane dies to a gank and didn't have any wards placed in the river. After the game, appreciate that I told you to take a shot of cranberry juice instead of a shot of liquor. Having a upset stomach is much better then alcohol poisoning.

Well, I'm a strange man who collects all different manners of weapons. So if the cat gets inside my house and it is near the front door, I would have my machete on hand to defend myself with. If I could get at least one good swing in, maybe when it pounces me, I think I could finish the job so to speak.

DatalessAug 19, 20161 votes

I would earn the Bobcats trust, however long it took, and have a magnificent feline companion. It's essentially a big kitty, so I think I can handle it.
