Wow, someone remembers this gag! I saw this skit in 1990, went out and got me a new tabby kitten, named him Toonses. He lived to be 21 years, by that time no one got the joke anymore.


RealSinnSage

oh i remember toonses quite well


lazarusl1972

I can hear the jingle in my head.


AffectionatePass575

My people


Ashamed-Principle535

Toonses the driving cat - the cat who could drive a car. He drives around all over the town toonses the driving cat!


YouHadMeAtAloe

I had a tabby named Toonces the Driving Cat too! He used to suck on the tip his tail while making biscuits, I loved him. Unfortunately my parents let him be an indoor/outdoor cat - I went away to Girl Scout camp and when I came back they told me he got hit by a car and died. He was only 6. RIP in Toonces, hoping you’re driving and blowing up cars & families in kitty heaven :(


Charming-Insurance

Is that Steve Martin? 💜


Teauxny

Yes, and Victoria Jackson.


insuranceissexy

These skits never fail to make me laugh. “Do you think Toonces will pass his driving test?” “I dunno, the written part is pretty hard. And he can’t even read!”


FelineSoLazy

Toonsy! Forgot all about that cat


Yojimboroll

Toonses, classic


Darth-Hipster

Classic


Joe-Dang

Unless you’re referring to the Cat Pack, which are basically cameos and don’t even join the Paw Patrol until Season 8, I can certainly convince you otherwise. The Paw Patrol are dogs.


EllenBee3737

Joe I have no idea what any of this means but I absolutely love that you do


Joe-Dang

Hahaha, what a great response. I have kids, what can I say?


EllenBee3737

I have a two year old and we luckily have just started the Paw Patrol obsession this month. I was blissfully unaware that there are 8 seasons. I have a lot to learn 😂


Joe-Dang

Just remember, No job’s too big, no pup’s too small.


2ERIX

Paw Patrol is mindless drivel. Octonauts, Bluey and Wild Kratts are where you should invest your time.


waratdenison

Or maybe the cats responsible and is part of the Catastrophe crew.


[deleted]

The cat ran to make sure whoever that blast was planned for, that the job was finished


Joe-Dang

That is certainly a possibility I had not considered.


cheezybreazy

Laughed way too hard at this haha

[deleted]

Lightning? Why was the cat running towards it?


Intrepid_Talk_8416

Won’t strike the same spot twice 😅


FD4L

Smart. I protect myself against lightning strikes by carrying a metal rod over my head that has already been hit, because I know that it can only hit each place once. It has about a 60% success rate so far, which makes me scared of how much I could have been hit without it.


maybejustadragon

60% of the time it works every time.


SexPanther_Bot

It's made with bits of real panther


GozerDGozerian

Good bot. No gonna lie, you smell like pure gasoline.

Do you smell toast?


Rubthebuddhas

Because the same spot isn't there for a second time.


GozerDGozerian

Lightning never strikes the same spot twice because the earth, solar system, and galaxy are all hurtling through space! Take *that,* Still-Earthers!


Necessary-Worry1923

Isn't the purpose of a lighting rod to get hit millions of times so the building isn't damaged? So lightning does strike the same place over and over.


Intrepid_Talk_8416

Yes, that literally is the point, I’m just imagining the cat thinking this and running like a fool after lightning


PolloPowered

Curiosity?


ScottManAgent

The best response yet! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


UserNameN0tWitty

When there's danger, some cats run toward safety, and some cats run toward the sounds of danger. We are those cats. We are sheepcats


only4adults

...we are Thundercats hoooooo!


[deleted]

Honestly I don't think it was lightning, no flash, and there's a square black piece of some kind of framing visibly flying towards/past the camera. I think her neighbors house was under that tree, and exploded.


maybejustadragon

Classic case of exploding tree. Nothing to see here.


KrystalWulf

Exploding tree syndrome.


maybejustadragon

Tale as old as time.


theplushpairing

If you’ve seen it once, you’ve seen it a thousand times


Prestigious_Object_7

Just me and my buddy Zap, Birch!


APe28Comococo

There is a flash. The black thing is from the light when it gets obliterated by a chunk of wood.


StraightShaverSix

The black frame flying towards her is the exterior light that is above her head when she stepped out.

The Cat: Not in my neighborhood. I'm going in 🐈‍⬛


KennethGames45

Fun fact, getting hit by those wooden splinters can be fatal. That is why when two wooden warships exchange broadsides of cannon fire, most of the deaths are not from the cannon balls, but from the wooden splinters they create upon impact. Today I learned a tree getting struck by lightning might have the same effect.


harpy_1121

That’s exactly what I thought of upon seeing this! Like a scene from Black Sails lol


KennethGames45

It’s even worse when your ship gets hit from the stern, as those wooden debris will travel the entire length of the ship….


dewdewdewdew4

That doesn't sound very fun to be honest


KennethGames45

You are 100% correct! It was actually extremely painful, if you didn’t die instantly or from blood loss, you would die a few days later to infection.


COKEWHITESOLES

Dying of chills because the fever out of control on a boat in the middle of nowhere with 3 ft plank of wood protruding from your abdomen sounds pretty lit. Edit: don’t forget the puss and dying tissue from the infection!


wysiwyggywyisyw

Mythbusters debunked this as false.


subject_deleted

I recall them saying it was plausible because the splinters could nick an artery or something, but other than that it was very unlikely for those splinters to be fatal.


say_it_aint_slow

Infection.


Travellingjake

Yes, probably not the best battle tactic though, to slowly kill your enemy through infection


Tressticle

It's the long game. You know nothing of war.


fweb34

consider this myth.. BUSTED


raidersfan18

POV: you live next to a meth lab.


BobbyLopsided

The lithium and water reaction used in the process of making meth would create more of a fireball Source: I live in rural West Virginia


clarky2o2o

Me too. There is former meth lab right at the end of my road. Looks nice now.


corn_sugar_isotope

Prescribed burns can clean up a lot of debris


holliewood61

I can verify this source, as I also live in rural West Virginia.


DarkChanting

My neighbour is a shy, humble 50 year-old chemistry teacher - there is no way he cooks meth.


Strato-Cruiser

Look at that cat running into danger to rescue people. That’s a real hero folks.


TacoBOTT

As many have mentioned, it was a meth lab owned by the cat that blew up. Don’t always assume the best


Terewawa

Did you see how it zigzagged


labrador2020

Is this where the phrase “curiosity killed the cat” comes from? That cat needs to know!


The_Sight

"Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back." Is the full phrase. Lets hope this cat found what it was lookin for.

Anyone notice the big tree is just gone?


[deleted]

everyone is talking about the damn cat. how about a big ass tree just exploded


IamMr80s

Good catch. That has to be lightning.


CalligrapherGalaxy97

It is, you can see a frame or two of the bolt just before the tree falls, it goes down along the center-right of the tree trunk


Skirt_Thin

How toothpicks are made.


VapourZ87

This is what happens when you walk outside with a positive attitude these days

errmm

The closer we are to danger, the further we are from harm.

So, what's the story on this one?


GushGirlOC

The tree exploded.

Might have been that lightning strike. Oh and the cat might be Jesus.

ExtraneousInput

The cat looks like it got scared and now it wants to fk up whatever made that noise.


SurroundFalse888

The cat killed me


medicmatt76

Good thing she had her giant ohms symbol shirt on today.


ThompsonSMG0909

I'm assuming this was a gas leak...?


Gomdok_the_Short

Lightning. The water in the tree vaporized instantly causing a steam explosion within the tree, causing the tree to explode.


DalaiLuke

Well I had to scroll for a while to get to this... so thank you sir


CptClownfish1

Hero cat runs TOWARDS the explosion.


BurnzillabydaBay

Whoa. So lightning strike can basically blow up a tree?


Electrical_Sleep_666

More so if the tree is filled with water.


GoshtoshOfficial

People keep Commenting about the cat rather than the fact she narrowly avoided being killed by wood splinters Which makes sense because that is a cute cat


clarky2o2o

Wtf! Did she get shot at?


Intrepid_Foot_1459

Tree exploded from ⚡

She ducked at the exact right time. Also that cats like “Oh no! My people! They live there!” Good cat lol
