Does it feel as good as you'd hope?
And I don't get how a cat can lock someone out of a house. Explain plz.

So you wrote "alkdjpab" because you wanted to make sure you were first and then come back and edit it. You wouldnt want look like an idiot and write "first" only to find out you were 2nd or 3rd?
#9 is a grammar nazi
does anyone feel how Andy Griffiths-esque this story is?
OP: did you go dress as mudmen and then get to your dads work?
And to think that I was about to give kudos to OP for having proper grammar... Kudos to you, Ox_Baker

I'm confused it does say "me"... did he edit..? and dude why on earth would you think that would be an I... that'd be like saying "my cat locked I out of the house" doesn't make much sense does it now.... dumb people go back to 2nd grade

he's right actually. in the case where you are speaking of yourself and another individual, grammatically you would say "my dad and I" to refer to the other person and yourself.
Your example actually proves why you would say "my dad and I". that's how you check. You're right, it doesn't work, that's where you say me.
So you can't talk.
GRAMMAR NAZI!!!!!!!!!!! get out of here!
and how the hell did tht happen? F in awesome cat you've
got there

If a cat and door lock can so easily lock you out, you might want to leave a key with a neighbor who is smarter than their pets.
what's so odd about that? my dog runs a lock smith co, you should of call him.

If this is even real, it's definitely a YDI, because there's no way the cat truly did that by itself. That would only be possible if you did something stupid where you could get locked out just by one little thing getting bumped. I'm pretty sure this is just a lie to begin with though.

No. My back door is one of those sliders with just a flip down and it will lock. My dog was jumping and he hit the switch locking us out. Could happen with a cat too.
#51, Happened to me with my dogs too, I could see it happening with a cat. Its not too much of a stretch.

I feel the OP's pain. My cat has managed to do this before, as well as unlock and open doors by himself.

Cats are smart, but your cat is amazing. Hide a camera inside, get him to lock the door, then make a big issue out of it, then send to AFV.
That would entail that there was something great or funny to this. As anyone who has ever seen a deadbolt knows, animals can and do lock them.
My doberman used to lock the deadbolt every time I went outside at night without her
The cat just wanted some alone time, try to be more understanding next time.

Why the hell did this get buried?
It's funny and relevant and not offensive...
#21 - On 10/22/2009 at 4:10am by caticaticati
Some angry, bitter little kid (or kids) has something against me, I'm assuming. ¯|(°_o)/¯
All of my comments in the FMLs that just got posted are buried, so I'm guessing that's it.
Oh well, in the end, I'm not the moron who sits on FML every day constantly searching for, as well as refreshing and burying somebody's comments. :]

In case I'm thinking of the right person, here ya go, babe, now go on with burying my comments again:

Haha. I've seen the following users recently thumbs downed en masse: mercyFML, Intoxicant, WitchCraft, BraveSirRobin, AllMidnightEyes, Peroxide, DameGrayWolf. I think that's about it. So basically the righteous community from 'Footloose' is patrolling the boards and being total nazooers. The only bad part is they have managed to insult some good ole true blues, like perdix and Triumvirate. Wha? Are they not worthy of your humorless disdain? LOL.
Personally, I don't thumbs down w/exception to 3 page ascii filler. It's kind of a loser move. If I disagree, all the more to let 'dem colors shine.. people just click 'show comment' anyway. Time wasters and haters :]
And my subconscious couldn't understand why I haven't been commenting on FML lately. Ah, I don't know whether to feel relieved or jealous I'm not on that list, oh dearest Mercy.
I bet everyone's forgotten me. XD
I can comment just like everyone else now!
#57 - On 10/22/2009 at 11:12am by redbluegreen
Only because you haven't been commenting here as much lately my sweet RBG, the busy bubblebee. Otherwise, I'm sure you would have been nazoozled for the treacherous sin of having something interesting and original to say :]
Rachel, there you are! God, why are you on the computer? Get back in the room. I'll be waiting for you naked.
Sorry guys, she'll be gone a little longer.
#81 - On 10/23/2009 at 12:25am by Intoxicunt
Oh, someone did the other day, and I didn't care all too much. I'll make the effort to comment more!
I miss you guys and our snuggleness!
And darling, erm, I mean, slave master, yes. Getting back, getting back.
Amazing how far these chains will go...

Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
Edit: This didn't show up where it was supposed to.

New Front Door: $80.
New Front Door Locks: $16.
Copy of New Front Door Keys: $8
Having your cat lock you out of the house with the new keys inside: priceless.

I agree, your life sucks (666)
it is offical, your cat has been possesed by one of my demons, to have it removed please call my-life-sucks-666-666
thank you.

Hmm, reminds me of Fred and DIno from the Flinstones. Do you have a pelican whose beak you can mix concrete in??
Get that damn thing labotomized. Next thing you know it'll be joyriding.
#29 - On 10/22/2009 at 5:10am by shaister
I laughed so hard at this one. That's all I can really say about this FML. My cats can open doors with their paws, or they just run at it head first really fast and knock it open and scare the ever living shit out of me. Did you have to call the police and explain that your cat locked you out of the house or something? They would've thought you were high hahaha.
i like this FML, one of the few geniune sounding ones for a while and it made me laugh :)

That happened to me once. The ONLY time my husband went out of town for work. I was home with my 6 month old, outside having a smoke (baby was sleeping) and the cat stood on the fish tank, then on the hotel type lock. The front door was also locked, there was a 4 foot tall balcony, and I couldn't get any neighbors to help no matter how loud I screamed for help. Had to break the living room window with my foot. It sucked.

It's really good to read something I never read here before! But you wait, two days, and we'll be overrun with posts about domestic animals playing locksmith. :/
Either you and your pappy are idiots or that's one hell of an awesome cat.

you hit the favriot button... duh
unless of course, there isnt one. because thats not a word. oh well

I love the image sitting on the windowsill, calm but wide-eyed, watching you two struggle to get back into the house. Oh, to Amuse a Cat.
Heh! My dog locked my dad out of the car once. On Christmas morning. It was epic.
#55 - On 10/22/2009 at 10:30am by lapetitesinge
I can see how a cat could do that. If the door is open, but you've locked the doorknob for some reason, all the cat would have to do is close the door. Or my cat can stretch to the doorknob, he actually grabs it when he's excited and wants to go outside (which isn't often, he's an indoor cat who only goes out on a leash), if we had a push-button lock, I could see him pushing it in his excitement. Lots of ways a cat can lock you out!
The cat thought he had pulled off the perfect evil plot.
Until he remembered he could not operate the can opener.
My cat can open doors, so I'm sure I'm headed down your path of fate, OP.

My cat is too lazy to push open it's catflap, and yours locks doors. My cat seems so dumb compared to yours. :(
#69 - On 10/22/2009 at 6:05pm by sammy6597
Wow just wow.. how moronic are you and your father?? No better yet, what did you do to the cat that made it hate you so much?
#70 - On 10/22/2009 at 6:32pm by Starsmydog
this is the best thing ive ever heard. i wish i couldve seen you guys locked outside. at least the animals in california arent idiots hahaha
#71 - On 10/22/2009 at 6:44pm by kisseshugsdrugs
Ok, the rule is this:
Just leave off the other person's name and see if it sounds right.
"Today, my cat managed to lock I outside..."
Nope.
Now you know! :)
#82 - On 10/23/2009 at 12:34am by Intoxicunt
what does YDI mean?
and what does OP mean too?
:/// i dont do slang.. :L

#99 - On 10/26/2009 at 3:52am by EveryDayJackAss
Has anyone thought about the fact the door might have been locked and open and the cat brushed by it pushing it shut?
