Official Thread of Cuteness Can't Post

Ok, you don't have to play along if you don't want to, and delete as you will mods, BUT I was at cuteoverload.com earlier and felt inspired to start a cuteness thread of our own. Studies have shown that merely looking at pictures of all things cute and fuzzy (though the having of fuzziness is not always required) positively effects mood. So why not share?



This one is actually from CO. KITTEHS!

I've got one that's on-topic: My cat reading LOTR! [In reply to] Can't Post

Well, he can't read, but he likes to look at the pictures:



I think he's pretty cute, especially in play mode:

Children’s Interpretations of the Bible

  • Lot’s wife was a pillar of salt during the day, but a ball of fire during the night.

  • The greatest miracle in the Bible is when Joshua told his son to stand still and he obeyed him.

  • Christians have only one spouse. This is called monotony.

    No!! Not that rule. [In reply to] Can't Post

    Dogs are adorable. Especially when they are sitting next to you and staring up at you with their head slightly turned to one side.

    It was the "when you are in a hole, stop digging" rule I was talking about.

    And those puppies are adorable!!!

    My son thinks his giant toads and baby alligators are cute! [In reply to] Can't Post

    Below is Gustov the baby alligator found at the bottom of our steps, he thinks he is a man eater but don't tell him otherwise. He was moved to the back pond. Lomi the kitty is taking a sun bath with Mu Mu my son's giant Rococo toad! I am surrounded by cuteness, I live in a zoo!!!!! It is just not always furry and little.




    The repetition, the doubling and the long strands of interconnected narrative all mean something. They say that life is a series of cycles, and that we will likely meet the same kinds of archetypal guardians, opponents and allies at various stages along the way. But the nature of the conflicts changes as you age and grow over the span of an epic. Reading 'The Lord of the Rings' in my 20s, I was inspired by its idealism, but also terrified by its vision of middle life and old age as a patient, plodding struggle against the mundane grinding of evil. Seeing the movie meant something else to me from my current perspective, around the corner of age fifty, reminding me that the raw intensity of youthful dreams still has purity and power. At the same time, I felt the death of comrades in the movie keenly, for comrades have started to fall around me, and I looked to the story for the courage to continue the struggle without them.~As the legend says, 'One Ring to rule them all and in the darkness bind them.' We were certainly bound in the darkness, me and that afternoon's audience for the first chapter of 'The Lord of the Rings,' fellow travelers on a long journey together, seeking meaning for our shadowed world in the mirror of a myth, just as humans have always done.~Christopher Vogler
