"...but if I did..."
I would never torture anyone unless highly necessary. You know, I still have a great heart.
I call that a lesson.
But the lesson is over, you can forgive me now.

Interesting fox. I didn't drink any potion today either. So good luck trying to catch the imaginary fox.

@Spilogale Pygmaea, we get that you're "keeping the universe in balance", but you can do it without brutalizing the bodies of your prey and making a show out of eating them XD
Good night! Maybe you should tell Elias to watch over you while you sleep! You've been a victim of a lot of nasty jokes today

Potion? What potion. Has anyone mentioned a potion?
On an entirely unrelated matter, Spilo, my predatory pal, I have this potion, here. I'm having a discount on fox transformations today, see, interested?

Glad you understand. Sorry, but these are rituals of myself that I perform for the Nature and Universe.
Pygm may or may not be interested.
The imaginary spotted fox has been caught.

...I guess "Gale-Maea" isn't that stupid, huh? Well, it was worth a shot. You don't want any soda either, I suspect? :/

What a day! My tail had to endure:
- getting several leads tied on
- getting a bottle of beer tied on
- getting cement put on
- getting caught in the door
- getting a fox tied on
- getting a beehive tied on
- getting threatened of getting his tail cut off
And getting his butt spanked and stinged by bees several times.
Guys! What the hell?
(At least @FlannelFox hugged my tail today. So this day wasn't a complete waste)
*gives the tied-on fox some beer*
I mean I have no idea what else to do with him!
*sits in a corner(wait, that hurts too much) stands in a corner and starts crying*
For the record, I have not had any sort of contact with your tail YET.
*whispers*
Don't forget what I just said.

Quick F A C T S while I'm waiting for dinner (and because I just got my Saab running again after a year of being broken):
In 1968, Saab unveiled the 99. Available as a three door hatchback or four door sedan, it marked a number of firsts for the Swedish company - first production four-stroke engine, first mass-production turbocharger, first V8 (though to be fair, it never ended up in any production versions), and first floor-mounted ignition switch. The last one has been one of the company's most famous hallmarks, and one of the most famous (or infamous, depending on who you ask) examples of the company's dedication to out-of-the-box thinking. Since 1968, only two Saab branded cars have not had the ignition behind the shifter. Those cars were the 9000 (which was a badge engineered Alfa Romeo 164), and the 9-2X (which was a badge engineered Subaru Impreza).
Advertising literature ever since the 99 went on sale says the change was focused on crash safety. Saab said that in the event of an accident, there was a risk of knee injury from the steering column pushing rearwards and the keys jutting out of a traditional column-mount ignition would strike the driver's leg. This was possibly true, though crash test evidence that focuses on risk of leg injury doesn't say a whole lot about knees hitting keys. And if your steering column is moving that much, you're in for a bad time regardless. Instead, at about the time the 99 was about to be released, the US government rolled out a requirement that manufacturers must have some form of ignition anti-theft device tied to the steering column.
Previous Saabs had the ignition on the dashboard, not tied in any way to the steering column. And since the steering column for the 99 had already been designed with this in mind, adding a key lock to it would cost time and money. So Saab relocated the ignition to the floor, designing the shifter instead to be locked in reverse unless the key was in the ignition. This way, they only had one ignition switch design regardless of left or right hand drive, and they had some form of anti-theft immobilization by way of mechanically locking out the shifter. After some pleading, the US Department of Transport figured it was an acceptable alternative to a steering mounted anti-theft device, and console ignitions remained a trademark of the company until Saab's bankruptcy in 2011.

Quick question. What was the reputation of Japanese cars pre-1970s?Quick F A C T S while I'm waiting for dinner (and because I just got my Saab running again after a year of being broken):

As far as I can tell, there really wasn't much going on. Honda didn't try to break into the US market until the late 60s, Nissan (Datsun) had a bit of a presence, as did Toyota. But for the most part, the US was very domestic oriented. Most of the Japanese companies entering started with subcompacts (Subaru 360, Honda N-Series, Datsun 1000), so they were always seen as economy cars that were cheap to buy, run, and fix.

My dad got a Honda Civic in 1975...that was the first Japanese car my family had...and almost scandalous in Michigan! Now they buy Toyotas.
