Disturbing Thoughts of the Day

From a newsgroup discussion about whether robot maids should have open source programming:

"The mind boggles at the destructive power of a Microsoft cat."

This discussion also eventually ended giving me the term of the day as well:

"mecha meganekko-neko miko mahou shoujo"

I think I'm not going to sleep well tonight...

er, mecha-cat/magical kitten girl?

that can't be good. Can you imagine the size of the water bottle needed to train the mecha-cat to stay off the drapes? Or how much damage it will do when looking for catnip?

Or how much it will hurt when she decides to sit on your lap while you're at your computer? "Whatcha doing? Oooo, clicky-thingies!" *bat* *crunch* *keyboard keys skittering across floor*

And you REALLY don't want to see it's version of a hairball.

AFAICT, 'mecha meganekko-neko miko mahou shoujo' roughtly translates out to "Android glasses-wearing magical catgirl temple guardian". Just to get as many otaku fantasies as possible in at one go.

What makes you think that cats don't already operate on a Windows platform?

* yowl to go outside and then yowl to go inside
* yowl to go outside then stare at the door wondering why you're letting the warm air out.

"It looks like you want to sleep in today. Would you like help?

* yowl for breakfast
* knead chest
* sit on your head
* treat toes like mice
