- jaygee, on 10/12/2007, -5/+301I never take the bus as i can never figure out the different routes. Looks like I just got owned by a cat.
- oceanmoon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+254I just ask the cat.
- bebop717, on 10/12/2007, -15/+209Reminds me of the Mitch Hedburg joke:
I was in downtown Boise Idaho and I saw a duck. I knew the duck was lost, because ducks aren't supposed to be downtown. There's nothing for 'em there. So I went to a Subway sandwich shop. I said, "Let me have a bun." She wouldn't sell me just the bun, she said it had to have something on it. She said it's against Subway regulations to sell just the bun. I guess the two halves aren't supposed to touch. So, I said, "All right, put some lettuce on it." "That'll be $1.75!" I said, "It's for a duck!" "Oh, then it's free." I did not know that. Ducks eat for free at Subway! Had I known that, I would have ordered a much larger sandwich. "Let me have the steak fajita sub, and don't bother ringing it up - it's for a duck! There are six ducks out there, and they all want Sun Chips!" - PlasmaSnk, on 10/12/2007, -8/+194If this was in Boston, they'd probably blow up the cat in suspicion of BOMB!

- SerifTheRobot, on 10/12/2007, -11/+133If this was in America, it would not be named after a poem. It would be named *****.
- Platysquirrel, on 10/12/2007, -7/+129Could they charge a cat bus fare?
- Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -11/+132My strategy is to look at the ***** map.
- Monkeybrains, on 10/12/2007, -6/+115Oh how I wish I hadn't googled that word.
- Akaji, on 10/12/2007, -14/+122So Asian = freek [sic] and/or cat-thief? Wow, racists sure are running out of ideas...
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -5/+109Oh, it's just Professor McGonagall again.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -30/+114Macavity: The Mystery Cat
A poem by T. S. Eliot
Macavity's a Mystery Cat: he's called the Hidden Paw--
For he's the master criminal who can defy the Law.
He's the bafflement of Scotland Yard, the Flying Squad's despair:
For when they reach the scene of crime--Macavity's not there!
Macavity, Macavity, there's no on like Macavity,
He's broken every human law, he breaks the law of gravity.
His powers of levitation would make a fakir stare,
And when you reach the scene of crime--Macavity's not there!
You may seek him in the basement, you may look up in the air--
But I tell you once and once again, Macavity's not there!
Macavity's a ginger cat, he's very tall and thin;
You would know him if you saw him, for his eyes are sunken in.
His brow is deeply lined with thought, his head is highly doomed;
His coat is dusty from neglect, his whiskers are uncombed.
He sways his head from side to side, with movements like a snake;
And when you think he's half asleep, he's always wide awake.
Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity,
For he's a fiend in feline shape, a monster of depravity.
You may meet him in a by-street, you may see him in the square--
But when a crime's discovered, then Macavity's not there!
He's outwardly respectable. (They say he cheats at cards.)
And his footprints are not found in any file of Scotland Yard's.
And when the larder's looted, or the jewel-case is rifled,
Or when the milk is missing, or another Peke's been stifled,
Or the greenhouse glass is broken, and the trellis past repair--
Ay, there's the wonder of the thing! Macavity's not there!
And when the Foreign Office finds a Treaty's gone astray,
Or the Admiralty lose some plans and drawings by the way,
There may be a scap of paper in the hall or on the stair--
But it's useless of investigate--Macavity's not there!
And when the loss has been disclosed, the Secret Service say:
"It must have been Macavity!"--but he's a mile away.
You'll be sure to find him resting, or a-licking of his thumbs,
Or engaged in doing complicated long division sums.
Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macacity,
There never was a Cat of such deceitfulness and suavity.
He always has an alibit, or one or two to spare:
And whatever time the deed took place--MACAVITY WASN'T THERE!
And they say that all the Cats whose wicked deeds are widely known
(I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone)
Are nothing more than agents for the Cat who all the time
Just controls their operations: the Napoleon of Crime! - SomaSynth, on 10/12/2007, -6/+89It would probably be more like "Oh ma' god there's a cat on the bus, someone grab a gun"
According to population, the US should have 5 times as many bus riding cats as the UK. - Shuk, on 10/12/2007, -7/+90This thread will soon fill up with 0wned by cat YTMNDs.
- madmax22a, on 10/12/2007, -7/+88yea, wonder where the cat "works"
- andrewa, on 10/12/2007, -4/+78I've had it with these *****' cats on this *****' bus!!
- Mullinsmcd, on 10/12/2007, -2/+73I, for one, welcome our super evolved cat overlords
- Xadrian79, on 10/12/2007, -1/+64@monkeybrains:
A good rule of thumb is to never google anything ending in "philia". Except for necrophilia. - CBTF, on 10/12/2007, -6/+69Haha, great story. Animals over in the UK really seem to enjoy public transportation. There are places where the pigeons are known to board trains every day as well, and get off at the same stops.
PS: i'm on ur bus, takin ur seatz. :( - MrFisty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+57If this were my cat, I'd totally give it a tiny hat, a tiny briefcase and a tiny newspaper called The Scratching Post.
Ah, I'm so lame. - claughery, on 10/12/2007, -7/+63wow. never seen racism as blunt as this on digg.
very poorly written comment. i hope you didn't mean that. - lieutenantmudd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+56I can easily see a cat being smart to repeat this feat a couple times a week on its way to fish and chips. The real question is, how did it learn the first few times.
- Renton, on 10/12/2007, -13/+68http://pr0n.encyclopediadramatica.com/images/0/0a/Catsex.jpg
- Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -4/+57Okay, slightly justified.
- Monkeybrains, on 10/12/2007, -4/+55I love kitties!
Just sayin' - john2kx, on 10/12/2007, -3/+52poor Boston will never live that down..
- wallkill, on 10/12/2007, -1/+48This is an inspiration to all catkind.
- Vision2098, on 10/12/2007, -2/+49@monkeybrains
Welcome to the Internet. Enjoy your stay. - Gir53457, on 10/12/2007, -5/+49We had a stray dog that was given the title of Town Hero after it saved a boy from drowning and It got paid by the mayor 10 cents a day (Looooooong time ago) and it learned to ride a bus (Had free buss pass on his collar) to the butcher's shop where he gave the butcher the dime and he fed him a slab of steak and it would ride the bus right back to the alley where it lived.
- rnwen2750, on 11/09/2007, -0/+45I wish my cat would go get a job already. It just sits there and eats my food... Lazy moocher.
- john2kx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+46Probably not.
- omnirusa, on 10/12/2007, -6/+51If this was america it would be arrested on suspision of terrorism >.>
- mentor972, on 10/12/2007, -5/+49He's best friends with ceiling cat.
- Rice, on 10/12/2007, -3/+44Soviet Korea!?
What the hell? - lieutenantmudd, on 10/12/2007, -2/+43Nor should they.
Even if you forgive the ATHF fiasco (which I am not), they then proceed to blow a traffic counter a couple weeks later.
Frankly it should be a defense in court, anytime a Boston cop testifies in court, the defense should be able to bring it up so as to demonstrate how retarded the Boston PD is. - slicedoranges, on 10/12/2007, -5/+45That's the most awesome thing I've seen in quite a while.
- crackedplastic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+38Did you even read the article?
- claughery, on 10/12/2007, -4/+40look.. I love my dog... I love my cats.
but who would argue over which species is more intelligent after this? - drewpost, on 10/12/2007, -1/+35I wonder if he's using his oyster card or paying the obscene £2 cash fare :-)
- Seifey, on 10/12/2007, -4/+34They see me meowin'
They hatin'
Patrolling they tryin' to catch me ridin' dirty
Tryin' to catch me ridin' dirty - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+32Get Firefox.
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ - anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28Sorry, that's me. I'll go.
- oneblueye, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25A cat that rides a bus in the UK....a coyote walking around Quizno's in Chicago...rats wreaking havoc in a NYC Taco Bell after hours...where would we be without our animal friends?
- jackhole, on 10/12/2007, -11/+34I see some of the crazy cat-ladies have figured out the internet:
"What a lovely story, such a refreshing change from the rest of the doom and gloom."
- Melanie Jane Williams, Melbourne, Australia
Yes Melanie, it's very refreshing that the most positive news in the world these days is a cat riding a ***** bus. - krawkula, on 10/12/2007, -6/+29Hey yeah, ***** wonderful everyone. royall64 did everyone a favor by posting the poem, that if you read the article, you would want to know. So we all bury his comment?
@royall64
Thanks, that really was a treat having you post the poem the article mentioned, and dont let the idiots that buried ya get ya down. - airwalkery2k, on 10/12/2007, -1/+24That would never work in America. Here, all the cats drive themselves. Plus, they go to the McDonald's instead of the Fish and Chips shop.
- Renton, on 10/12/2007, -5/+27Yup
It seems to be instinct for them
