A dark gray cat it sitting on a light gray sofa and blanket. He is sitting on his backside like a fat old man, with his legs spread wide and his tail stretched out before him. He is looking off to the left of the frame, and his arm is draped casually over his chubby belly.

As I walked into Lowe’s today, I had to abruptly stop as a young boy sprinted just in front of me – giggling with delight, his parents struggling to keep up – toward the gigantic 9.75’ animatronic Bumble.

He was absolutely enraptured by this thing.
Screenshot from Lowe’s website showing the image of a stuffed animatronic Bumble from Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. His fur is all white, with blue fingers and toes and a blue face. he is smiling and holding a light-up star in one hand, with a trail of Christmas lights dangling to his other hand. The text reads, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 9.75-ft Laughing LED Bumble Animatronic. A smaller gray box informs us that 1k+ were bought last week.

A three-panel meme based on the film Donny shows Darko. Panel 1 features Donny (Jake Gyllenhaal) glowering in a dark sweater, and the text “I made a new way to generate energy.” Panel 2 shows Donny’s therapist (played by Katharine Ross) casually leaning back with her hands clasped. The text reads, New or steam? Panel 3 shows a slightly chagrined Donny with and overlay of a diagram of a nuclear reactor. The text reads, Steam.

So basically this
Screen grab from The Simpsons. An angry looking reporter, wearing a burgundy suit and holding a microphone, sits in a row with other members of the press, including a TV camera. The overlaid text is dialog from the scene: “No. Say it. We need a sound bite.” From off-screen Apu and his wife respond “We have a love-eight relationship.”

This made me remember one of my favorite old pictures of Roxy - the first time we saw a turtle at the park. She was so confused she didn’t know what to do.
A photograph of a tan brindle dog with a white muzzle, intently staring at a box turtle trying to cross a path of crushed gravel. She is at the top of the frame, looking down in concern and confusion at the brown and yellow markings of the turtle’s shell. The turtle has mostly pulled back into its shell, but you can just see its face and eyes. A pink striped leash is draped along the ground and trails off out of frame.

Found an old picture of Roxy showing off her multicolor nails to help your new friend feel welcome.
A close-up photo of a tan brindle dog with a white muzzle and white toes, lying on a navy blue blanket. You can see that her toenails vary in color - 2 black, 2 white, then black, then white, and finally 2 black.

I definitely did not catch them in the middle of anything when I took this photo. Roxy cannot emphasize that enough.
A tan brindle dog with white markings is looking at the camera. She is sitting on a couch covered with a light gray blanket, with a dark gray cat lying between her front paws. The cat is lifting his head slightly and looking off to the left, his front paw raised in the air.

Who has better principles than the Supreme Court? According to the (former) clerk of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, no one.
Screenshot from The Simpsons showing Milhouse reading a green Guide Book while sitting in a car. The text from the scene overlaid on the image reads Hey, who has better vacation ideas than AAA? According to the publisher of this AAA guidebook — no one.

I think about @dansheehan.bsky.social ‘s old post about how teeth are “luxury bones” every time I go to the dentist.

Well, that and this one:

Me watching every Godzilla movie or series:
Screenshot from The Simpsons. Bart and Homer sit on the couch, illuminated by the TV glow. Homer wipes away a tear as they watch the finale of Gorilla the Conqueror. The superimposed text reads, “It’s so unfair. Just because he’s different.”

I guess you’ll be buying this house next
Still from I Think You Should Leave sketch showing the inside of a house that is claimed to have belonged to Garfield creator Jim Davis. People sit around a room with orange walls with a few curved black stripes, mimicking Garfield’s coloring. There is a large yellow chair with ears resembling Odie, and a large orange sofa with eyes and ears to evoke Garfield.

There was a lizard.

(Also, you can see exactly where I ran out of string for my trimmer.)
A dark gray cat and a tan brindle dog are staring intently at a wooden fence. The cat is crouched on the grass while the dog is standing. The cat is wearing a safety-orange harness while the dog sports a pink collar.

Sweet Zombie Jesus!
Screenshot from Futurama featuring Zoidberg dressed as Jesus. A large lobster-like alien is wearing a white robe with a brown tie across the chest, and sporting a wig of shoulder-length brown hair. A fake beard hangs below his mandible. His arms are outstretched as he comes through a doorway, lit from behind in a beatific glow.

Roxy refuses to come inside since it’s sunny and more neighborhood kids might come by.
Photo of a tan brindle dog with white markings lying on a faded pink and yellow beach towel. Her eyes are closed and she’s looking away from the camera as she soaks up the sun. One of her back legs is off to the side at a weird angle.
