    The thing about a cat, it’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes.

    Cats have very expressive colorful eyes. “Lifeless black doll’s eyes,” would be a better description of rabbit eyes.

      Because it’s a Jaws reference and she’s in a shark toy, you see.

      Not when you’re on the receiving end of some side-eye for not sharing your snacks

      That’s why it’s so funny, it’s incongruous. The line is about great white sharks.

      And that puss’s expressive expression looks like she’s going to playfully bite the shit out of anyone who puts their hand in the shark box.

        Yeah, I recall Spielberg being sad he made that movie and put so much misinformation about sharks into the world, since the movie contributed to the decimation of the shark population.

          @EssentialCoffee yeah he must’ve been. It was full of anti-shark propaganda.

          It was also essentially the first blockbuster and opened a lot of doors for him so he probably has mixed feelings.
