http://www.buzzfeed.com/joannaborns/what-is-your-purpose-in-lifeYou got: Colonize a cat island

You were meant to colonize a cat island. There are thousands of uninhabited islands in the ocean. One of them should be the future home of you and hundreds of cats. It is your destiny.
I think it's because I picked this one to bring home. Although the donuts were a very close 2nd!

You were meant to conquer the sea. For too long, the seas had quite the attitude. And you were meant to put it in its place. Youre the boss of the sea
I love the ocean, so that's a good one! I didn't know who the guy was in the photo though.

And here I thought my main purpose was decorative. Just goes to show ya.

(10,558 posts)They think my purpose is to Colonize a Cat Island!?! I am of the opinion that the authors of this link need to step away from posting anything after smoking that much catnip! They did not even come close to getting what my true purpose in life is!
First off, most islands are surrounded by water and while it is true that cats are often fascinated (or maybe horrified) by creatures that swim in water, swimming is just not their thing. They are insane if they think I would want to go down in history as being the creator of All-Cat-Raz.
As to my purpose in life, my sole reason for existence, the very plan God had for me when he provided me with two hands two feet and a Toyota pick up truck: My job is to chauffeur the Doggie Treat Inspector General, (aka my dog Molly), around from latte stand to latte stand in order test the freshness of the products they pass out to other dogs. Tummy rubs, long walks anywhere and putting (more than enough) food in her bowl at feeding time is also in my contract.
Nopity, they didn't even come close!

(2,682 posts)SOMEONE has to watch all the TV. Watching TV can really be an art form. Its your special contribution to the universe.
I would have preferred "watch all the movies", but that didn't seem to be an option. Seattle International Film Festival starts in about 10 days. I've been through the catalogue, identified the movies I'd like to see, and am now trying to figure out how I can be in different theaters on opposite sides of town at the exact same time. Choices, choices, choices!!!!

How about some nice braised short ribs with maple glazed baby carrots and garlic mash potatoes with jus? And a nice chianti...
