So I just got linked this from a friend. This [http://www.metro.co.uk/weird/870796-kitten-overlooked-for-adoption-because-she-looks-like-hitler] kitten has been overlooked for adoption because it has a black spot under it's nose not unlike Hitler's stupid little moustache. The cat was found by the public half dead, it was taken to a shelter where it was nursed back to health but now the shelter is struggling to find it a home for this reason.
Does anyone else think this is really cruel and retarded?
I followed the link before commenting because occasionally I like to actually know what I'm talking about.
This is like when someone says that anything long and straight is phallic. It's not even a perfect little patch like Hitler had. In other words, it (the only common feature besides universal mammal facial features) only resembles Hitler's mustache in that "now that you mention it...I guess it
kinda does" sort of way. I have my doubts about the validity of this story, and OP should too.
Did you know that there is a website that shows people's Facebook outrage over fake Onion stories? My favorite is the one about the reversal of don't-ask-don't-tell (the US military's policy on gays serving). The fake headline for the very obviously satirical article on the fake news website was "Soldiers forced to Have Gay Sex on the Battlefield." Hilarious in its own right, but not nearly as funny as the reactions of FB users who embedded it and said things like "I'm OK with freedom and all, but this is just too much! They've got to do something about this!"
This thread reminds me of that. Quell your outrage, lest someone accuse you of being a drama queen.
