I'm Nuts

All I wanna do

Is see you turn into

* Are elephants scared of mice? (They only did that because they were in Africa and had access to elephants.)

* Will a bull run amok in a china shop?

* Is it better to run zig-zag or straight when chased by an alligator?

I love these because NONE of them turned out the way they expected. They went into all three with pre-conceived ideas of how it would go, and each time they “failed.” Elephants WILL cower from mice. A bull moves very gingerly through a china shop. It doesn’t matter how you run because ALLIGATORS WON’T CHASE YOU.

And each time, they reacted with just… pure glee. “Holy shit, we were wrong! Oh my god! This is great! We were so wrong!”

Found in a 120 year old time capsule.

I don’t know how to express it but just the thought of some person, 120 years ago, taking a photo of their cat, which back then wasn’t easy. They didn’t have phones with cameras, and each photo required a lot of time and dedication.

So, not only the person “wasted” a whole photo on their cat, they also did their fricking best to save this photo, and carefully put it into an envelope to preserve it so that people in the future will know that there was this cat and it looked like this.

Its owner thought the cat looked lovely that day so much that they decided to take a photo of it, and then they loved the photo so much that they went out of their way to preserve it for future generations like “hello people from the future! this is what my cat looks like!” because they loved their cat so much they wanted people from the future to know about it.

That thought is… crazy to me… and here we are, 120 years later, long after the cat and its owners passed away, looking at an old photo of a cat and gushing about it. The cat died so long ago, and we wouldn’t even know it existed if not for the owner that loved their cat so much that they decided this photo was worth preserving and put it into a time capsule.
