Have we run out of dead cat bounces?
I can see how a fairly fresh cat cadaver, thrown or dropped from a great height, might bounce.
A little.
And you might even get a bit of a bounce on the second and third attempts.

But eventually the corpse will get flaccid and mushy.
Now it's like trying to bounce a wet sponge.

Are we there yet?
:shrug:

(Apologies to feline fanciers. It's just a metaphor.)

1. I think even the players are getting scared
that their halfhearted attempts to pull it back up so they can make more money tomorrow are going to backfire.
And if I may quote Steve Miller..."take the money and run".

3. Get another bar of Dead Cat Soap!
There's a whole Dead Cat in every bar of Dead Cat Soap! Or so says the Firesign Theater.
