I recognize that there are certain aspects of Pharyngula’s corporate culture that are to be trifled with only at the risk of great social peril. I also recognize that Freethought Blogs as a whole might well be leary of new people coming on board and then immediately posting things that run counter to everything the community here stands for. PZ and I have agreed that my participation here is on an “at will” basis for that very reason. It’s a sound and well-justified measure.
But there are times when a person must say what she or he must.
Nosy Parker wishes you a special Pharyngula-themed Happy Caturday.

Cats naturally crave squid, especially deep ocean squid — or so I’m told by TV advertising. Squids and cows, you don’t often see a herd of cats taking down a cow but apparently they crave beef too.
** alternative hypotheses: humans find the idea of rat and bug flavored food disgusting — and yet humans still eat canned food.

Well, yeah. A squid is immobilized on the surface of Mars but the cat probably asphixiates much quicker.
Now, a size-matched octopus might kick a cat’s ass on the surface of Mars. It has greater anaerobic capacity by far and probably finds the lower gravity covenient for terrestrial locomotion. If we start them close enough together, the octopus could get to the cat and might administer several nasy bites before, during and after the cat’s demise.
More likely, in its last minutes of life it wouldn’t give a shit about the cat, dead or alive. (It’s dead.)

This is the first instance I have ever heard of Schrödinger’s Martian Cat experiment.

I can see the advertising now in the commercial breaks during Bill Nye’s new show ‘Fucking Creationist Fuckers’ on Discovery Channel – “HEY KIDS!
