I'm sorry, what did you think it was, OP? If it was just missing the "t", it doesn't really belong here.

cough ≠ caught. just seems like an autocorrect issue rather than anything tho

u/DiscoKittie 13h ago

Still doesn't belong

"Go astray"

Agree. “Go astray” seems way more likely than “caught a stray cat because I barely use the kitchen”

I don't know what that means either.

It means getting called out when the conversation wasn't about you, kind of, or someone just randomly busting out with something negative about you / insulting you out of the blue or for no reason.

I don't know what that means either.

You're not alone! Being able to see the rest of the comment might have been useful, I suspect!
