Not a problem. When I kick, I post a comment. MineralMan Oct 2013 #4

But posts in Geberal Discussion about an odor in your basement do? bvar22 Oct 2013 #23

I don't know, bvar22. You tell me. MineralMan Oct 2013 #24

By your logic, that validates the OP even more. bvar22 Oct 2013 #26

That was just what I was going to ask you. MineralMan Oct 2013 #39

I am so bored with the "cat food" tactic, and it's not even apt frazzled Oct 2013 #6

It's an agitprop meme. It's used to create fear and loathing MineralMan Oct 2013 #7

It's well documented fact that conservatives must ignore and pretend doesn't Egalitarian Thug Oct 2013 #19

Do you deny that some impoverished Americans have resorted to eating cat food in order to economize? Fumesucker Oct 2013 #27

Not at a meme level. MineralMan Oct 2013 #30

Of course memes aren't reality, only reality is reality Fumesucker Oct 2013 #32

No, that is not why I'm objecting. MineralMan Oct 2013 #33

Tuna at the bargain store is cheaper than cat food. We use it as a supplement. appleannie1 Oct 2013 #40

Yah. The price of canned tuna can be lower than MineralMan Oct 2013 #41

And you can save unopened mayo packets out of dumpsters and make tuna salad. appleannie1 Oct 2013 #57

Outstanding! Add that to the tip list. AnotherMcIntosh Oct 2013 #58

Not me. MineralMan Oct 2013 #60

That's $0.38 per cat serving, not per human serving. The Velveteen Ocelot Oct 2013 #42

You're right. AnotherMcIntosh Oct 2013 #53

I'm sure Chained CPI will consider that savings... Oilwellian Oct 2013 #55

Maybe it's just a matter of finding the right dry cat-food mix with the rice and beans you mentioned AnotherMcIntosh Oct 2013 #11

I'm so sorry that poor old people's deprivation is harshing your happy-world fantasy. Egalitarian Thug Oct 2013 #17

So sorry you can't accept rice or beans as good enough for poor old people frazzled Oct 2013 #22

I actually *am* a poor old person Fumesucker Oct 2013 #28
