SECTION 11

If you butter a piece of toast and drop it, it lands butter side down.

If you drop a cat it always lands on it's feet.



What would happen if you buttered the back of a cat and dropped it?

It would most likely hover a few inches rotating wildly - but that's just a guess.

A good guess but the cat's feet and the butter offset each other therefore, the only logical answer is it would land on it's side. Likely that would mean broken bones and possibly death. This of course would lead to a full blown bum rush of Section 11's laboratory of wierdness by PETA and the local constables. This in turn would lead to Section 11's internment at Tent Jail and his court case would be shown on Court TV and cause all the major networks to stop showing war coverage and start dissecting the minute details of his case. From there, full blown incarceration for Section 11 in Florence where his scientific thoughts would have no outlet. As a result, he would construct a shank and stab the first bad ass muther f**ker who looked at him wrong.

As this sad story continues, he would be tried for murder and sentenced to Death Row. This would be another case of a young manb's bright scientific future being cut short by the Man.

But wait, in a last second reprieve, Governor Napolitano would grant his stay of execution and actually release him from prison. Why? She finds out he is a Cards fan and believes that represents enough punishment. Section 11 goes home and has to register with the local police as a scientific offender and is not allowed within 100 yards of any animals.

Or maybe, the cat would still land on it's feet.

Butter side is heavier, so gravity helps it rotate over so the butter hits the floor. Cats landing on their feet.. I have done extensive research, and I have come to the conclusion, that if you throw a cat hard enough, they will NOT land on their feet.. but thats just my unscientific research....

FischerKing

Not sure that I agree with that. During the "repelling" process of the "butter-side" vs. the "cat's feet" it would act like polar opposites of a magnet. This would leave it over-correcting uncontrollably giving the optical illusion that it was hovering just above the ground. You'd just end up with a ball of fur and butter spinning madly a few inches off the ground.

However, to confirm this once and for all I think testing should commence immediately.

If we're not supposed to eat animals, why do they make them taste like meat?

My experience is that if you bury the cat alive there's no need to throw it....

SECTION 11

And if Wile E. Coyote had enough money for all of that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?

Ok,

I can help clear this up.............

After reading this I thought it to be a good time to do "scientific analysis" so I grabbed my son's cat and here are the results.

1) butter on back = landing on side

2) butter on back while cat is "hog tied" = well, different various landings, nothing conclusive

3) peanut butter on back with large dog in home = eventually landing on feet after various yowls and (never mind)

4) butter on back with 10 lb. weight tied to back = landing on back

5) butter all over with an apple in mouth and 10 minutes on each side @350 F. = yummy

Hope this helps,

Harley

You guys are just SICK.. SICK I say....

He didn't have any money. He robbed people to get the money so he could satisfy his ACME habit. It is one of the signs of addiction. Also, would you have watched a cartoon of a coyote going to a fast food place to buy dinner?

So far I've thrown six buttered cats from a deck I have in the back yard, and my damn Shar-pei has caught and eaten each one before I could get a result. Who knew Shar-pei's like butter? I give up.
