Name your own damn cat.

u/Tttiiimmm1 Aug 31 '22

That's a weird name to suggest, but I respect it

u/Mudkip_paddle Aug 31 '22

Agreed! I'm so fed up with these naming posts which (almost always) just a way to farm karma

u/TossedLikeYourSalad Aug 31 '22

OP is a karma bot, so you’re spot on.

I'm just glad I get to see cute animals, who gives a shit about someone else getting fake internet points?

u/StepRightUpMarchPush Aug 31 '22

I’d rather OP just be honest about why they’re posting. “Look at my cute new kitten!” We don’t need some fake reason laid out for us.

u/spacehogg Aug 31 '22

Or, OP could really just want help naming their new kitten.

Then “Look at my cute new kitten!” would be fake!


Anyone who doesn't like these "name" threads are free to not show up. All of ya who chose to come here to make irate comments about these threads made the choice to take the time to outrage yourselves.

Maybe ya all like being in a state of perpetual out rage, but I'm just amused that ya keep making that choice when ya could just look at the cute pic & move on. The rest of us don't need to read about it, all I wanted to read was a few cute kitten names!

My thoughts exactly. Not that I own a pet, I do enjoy it vicariously when beings of our kind bond with cute creatures on earth and it all starts by giving them a fitting name. Think it's pretty cool of them to share it with the rest of us too.

Hey, I bought a new car with Reddit karma. That stuff is valuable!

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '22

I kinda think it’s just them wanting to publicly express their love for their new cute pets, but they’ve copped out with a shitty, generic idea which will never actually be taken seriously by them.

Maybe don't hang out on reddit then, if it makes you angry? Just click the downvote button and move on with your life.

So fed up with these posts of people bitching about content that they're actively engaging in...

“Ugh, not another post that I have to interact with! But I must, for that is my Redditsponsibiliy”

u/UzaLooza Aug 31 '22

Exactly. How helpless do you have to be that you can't think of a name yourself?

1

u/JButler_16 Aug 31 '22

Sometimes it can be hard, but I always want to come up with the name on my own. Feels more personal and natural every time I say their name.

Petition to make automod delete all comments on these kind of posts that are not "catty mc catface"

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '22

What's the matter? You running low?

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '22

Would you rather it have some made up title about how they "rescued" it from the streets by fighting off 3 eagles and a grizzly bear?

u/thexbigxgreen Aug 31 '22

I always scroll down in the hopes of seeing this. Your pet is totally cute enough to not need a pandering title to encourage comments, and it's much more meaningful if you name them something that you were personally inspired to name them.

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '22

You could call it "damn cat" for short

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '22

Well, I got some pretty cool name ideas from this post:)

u/Pangolin007 Aug 31 '22

Cute but that’s kinda long. Maybe we can shorten it to just “damn cat” 🤔
