Hum...

[RockinRight]

What was the point of this???

[eyespysomething]

Trolls must have long dark beards, because the viking kitties do not like them.

[Little Pig]

And we care about how cats react to beards why?

[freepertoo]

Well! I always wondered. Another one of life's mysteries solved! :-D

[MineralMan]

Uh, this is hardly news. In fact, it's hardly anything. Chat, perhaps?

[Spruce]

Someone has WAY too much time on their hands.

[ShadowAce]

Well, this was a thorough waste of someone's money.

[sure_fine]

cats don't like muslims either?

>>Bork was a nominee to the United States Supreme Court. Because of Bork's distinctive beard, his photograph has been used in reaction studies with dogs, rats, and planaria (flatworms) and in bombardment studies with pigeons.

Wow, Academics really don't like Bork.

"And we care about how cats react to beards why?"

Well, as a bearded man, it's nice to know this information before I pick up a cat.

19% fled.

I have had a beard since 1972. All animals love me. Well, I haven't tried to get friendly with snakes and wild beasts. I'm not like that idiot who thought the could be friends with the bears. One day, his friends had him for the main course and his stupid girlfriend for dessert.

I think it's hilarious. Some people need to retune their sense of humor.

[evets]

[DCPatriot]

Useless crap.

[Petronski]
