This is so true! I don’t watch cat videos but spend way too much time on the computer. I’m retired so have a lot of free hours that I could be doing something productive.
I’ve got a better idea: adopt a couple cats, instead. Sure, they’ll do everything possible to keep you from reading a book or painting a picture. But you’ll have cherished friends worth visiting for life.
Two words: shift work. I worked second and third shift in call centers for years. Too often, when I had free time, everyone else was asleep or at work.
Although I did spend time drawing, doing origami and taking walks in the park. Still, no social life made life very depressing.
Now I work in an operations center where I work Monday – Friday, regular business hours. Bliss.

Or you can spend all day watching tv shows from 1979.

I’m surprised there’s no word for people like me that avoid any and all cat videos.

Speaking of cats, where has Snuffles been hiding lately? Have he and Guard Duck been invading another island nation?

Old fashioned as I may be, I will go out and visit a friend – I hate watching cat videos alone!

Funny, my recollection of free time in 1979 consisted of drink a beer, drink a beer, drink a beer…

If everyone is watching cat videos, who is making those cat videos?

No one has heard the best punk rock band in the world.
They are called Cat Videos on the Internet.

The Muppet Movie was released in 1979. Name your preference, Muppets or cat videos?

This is two cell phone commentaries in a row. Pastis must know someone who has a problem (other than the vast majority of Americans).

In 2017, we do not only watch cat videos all day. We also enjoy comics written and drawn by a sad little man who is excellent in bad puns

Over 50 posts, and not one of you has wondered whether or not today’s strip wasn’t ghost-written by Francesco Marciuliano?

Poor Fluffy! Thanks to kind-hearted Pig, Fluffy’s sacrifice for our entertainment is not forgotten.
I try to avoid cat videos by focusing instead on “cute” wildlife videos: it’s “the same thing, but different,” and that justifies me to myself….

I like to watch videos, but NOT cat videos. I also like reading books and comic strips, like this one!
