Roomba Drivers and Kitty Pilots
Have you seen the Roomba driver cat video yet? Odds are good you have, because I keep getting emails and Tweets about it!
That is undeniably cute, but Roger the Cat rode a Roomba first- in parallax and with goggles!
I wish my cats had skills beyond sitting on beams and tripping me. More Wonderful World of Kittens DVDs are on the way, BTW. We sold out of the first case and have another coming!

That’s crazy awesome, but didn’t Roast Beef (a cat) of Achewood ride a roomba in 2004, for “Great Moments In Cinema”?

Did he? got a link?
I don’t think of those as cats, personally. Just oddly shaped people.

I thought they were anthropomorphic bulldogs and other canine varieties. Somehow knowing some of them are cats make the strip way better! Although I may really be in the ‘oddly shaped people’ camp now.

Yeah, it takes me a little while to remember occasionally that they’re cats/bears/otters/tigers etc. I can’t stop reading, though!
Also I just read my comment above (the first I’ve left on your excellent comic) back to myself and have decided that I’m a huge nerd. Sorry for dumping on your roomba glee! I love DS, and have been reading for about a year, since my sister-in-law (who has impeccable taste) recommended it to me.

Pointing out oversights is *never* dumping! I love me some information and never take it the wrong way as long as it’s in a complete sentence and has some thought behind it.
Thanks for reading! Your sister in law gets a high five.

I know this is off topic, but I really feel like it’s more on topic than anything else. You can’t bring Maura back from vacation as a female Billy Brain Jar and just not comment on this at some point.
Or can you?

I can for now, take from that what you will.

It is killing me, but I love it.
