Your video, Dick Cole, last of the Doolittle Raiders, dies at 103, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Man, I remember others and I played Q2's FreezeTag mod (met Doolittle in person), Q2's CTF, Action Quake2 (AQ2), etc. at my college's LAN parties (why did they start on my last day of college? haha).

My reaction was exactly the same. The cut from Dr Doolittle is like woooooooosh. On reflection though those scenes don't have that much going on in the way of special effects - to me its about really amazing set/prop design, lighting and directing. The way the light shines on Bowman's eyes... I don't think that is an accident and I suppose you could argue it was a visual effect.

I've come up with the following possible reasons for the owner's strange silence:

* the owner is mute/deaf
* the owner is Spock/unemotional
* the owner is a telepathic version of Dr. Doolittle and was speaking to the cat throughout the entire clip

Any others?

My friends drink at the pub she goes to. =)

Chimpanzees raised in captivity are usually taught to communicate using hand signs from ASL. Anyone here know sign language?


No but I have a good guess at what pointing to an object and then pointing to your palm means.

And to the idiots calling me Dr Doolittle. My whole point is that this is pretty obvious and I'm not claiming to be Dr Doolittle but someone who can observe an event and distinguish my own perception from the psychological priming (the description).

I'd like to think you're right, Quboid, but it really looks to me like that cat is quite scared. I also don't like the way it was motioned towards the dog.


The people weren't the most sensitive, and they were trying to get a reaction from the dog or the kitten. That I don't agree with, so whatever I say next I don't think the people were right.

However, I tend to agree with Quboid here. The cat isn't scared, it's curious and unsure. If it was scared it would run away. Retroboy has never seen a cat play looking like that, but I'm betting he hasn't been living with and breeding cats for ten years like I have.

I'm not doctor doolittle, but I do know cats. At the end of the video the cat isn't too happy and is slinking away. The situation isn't the cleverest, but that's not a really scared kitten. Domesticated animals like this don't have the same reaction to situations that a wild animal would have. That need to be fearful has been largely bred out, to the detriment of a lot of cats. The phrase curiosity killed the cat most certainly has it's origin in fact!

The body language and behaviour both animals was playful. I think a lot of the animosity toward this video is from people not really understanding what they're seeing. That is not a scary dog, at least not when it's behaving like that, and a scared cat will run away - it's not cornered!

This, "It's only the internet" shit would apparently from the accounts from female(s) who have met this, what appears to be, developmentally disabled child gwiz665 in person does not seem to apply here-I would tend to trust the in-person meeting over the online persona, if you could call it one.

I haven't been here active until recently,but i have been watching some of the more prolific users.

Gwiz665? You need some basic social decorum lessons alla Liza Doolittle-Doesn't appear given your geographical orientation and command of a conversation that you get out a whole lot. (Note the defensive posturing of the accused in light of hard evidence and/or disagreement of any kind with his position)-schoolyard shenanigans.

Qualm? He won't leave, and he won't become any more interesting nor will his overall raw, untrained incivility falter. Feel sorry for him but don't knock his ice cream cone in the sand for good measure-From the looks of his past with other users,he ain't gonna take any advice, good, bad, or otherwise.

Shut-in douchebag?? Too much attention as a child? Legend in his own mind?

Banned.

If anyone has a problem with this, take it up with @dag or @lucky760. Maybe they'll give a fuck, but I don't.

And don't worry, choggie. I'll ban the rest of your sockpuppets when I feel like it.
