"101 reasons to dump your man and get a cat?" Nothing like feeding those crazy cat lady myths.
Yeah, must have been tough whittling it down to only 101.
I got 7 1/2 right--on one, I thought two were right and tossed a mental coin; it came up wrong.
These were all funny. Good job!
"Doggy Style" had me laughing out loud. And, as usual, some of the fake titles were much better than the real ones. Fun exercise...
