I tried to tell my ungrateful cat about physics.

I read several full categories on the field of physics to my cat today, from Wikipedia. It seemed to listen very patiently. However when I had finished, it started grooming. Essentially, I sought to advance the whole feline species in their current knowledge of applied physics - presently limited to string-entanglement theory - that had taken mankind centuries to accumulate, and it would appear that it did not even realize. I wonder if things are being told to us, and we're just as oblivious? Cats are jerks.

They already knew all that and have long wondered why we are so slow.

(also I guess this should be in OOPE)

Careful...that's how Schrödinger started out, and it ended and/or didn't in tragedy.

Nah, the cats just think 'Silly backward humans, you will learn eventually. Now give me food. NAOW!!!!'

Cats remember being gods, and have no need of such frippery.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

All cats have innate understanding of physics, they are born with this knowledge, they are just bored when you start reading what they all know already. Lol

Alley cat: "How does being a house cat work?"
Garfield: "Jon feeds me, cleans out the litter, scratches me, amuses me and feeds me."
Alley cat: "What does he get out of it?"
Garfield: "To call himself master."

Garfield: "I am not lazy. I am a master of storing potential energy."

Heh, reminded me of that old DOS/Windows game, Noctis, where it's simple planetary exploration, that's all. You play as an advanced cat-like civilization, the Felisians.

I still hold out hope for Noctis V.....and Shenmue 3.

cats have their own physics, and are thus indifferent as to your opinions.

It is worth noting that Alpheias is a cat in real life and got a degree in philosophy and hate.

I thought of it more as a introduction at a 12 step addiction meeting. "I am Alpheias and I like cats!"
