See, but that's the thing. I never made the mistake of buying a cat.
Also, what is "offence?"
I kinda feel like you're trying to back out of the debate with a "let's just say we're both winners" kind of approach. But you entered into it, and I'm not gonna back out until I've won. Your points are... Shall we say... Lacking. I'd like to see either some counter-arguments or a surrender here.
So, you're going to keep arguing needlessly until "you've won the arguement"? And you're going to ignore my opinions and input because my points are "Lacking"?
In the immortal words of The Randomizer: "You fail."
An discussion shouldn't be a battle for superiority. It should be about learning something new and adding your opinion to the table, excepting the most likely possiblity. When you get into "agruement merit" and "winning the arguement" it becomes meaningless tediousness that only a complete and total douche-nerd can enjoy.
And you know that really, both dogs and cats can be both good and bad. There is no possible way for one of the two animals to be always better or always worse.
And, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter who wins an arguement. Because, at the end of the day, no matter what, I will ALWAYS be more awesome then you.
I have decided this dog vs. cat war must end. These are my points:
Both puppies and kittens are extremely cute. Neither is cuter than the other, as it really depends on the individual animals appearances.
Both dogs and cats, due to their wild ancestry, are badass.
Both dogs and cats make excellent pets. Which one is better depends on the individual animals personalities and behaviors, and the owner's preferences.
Both dogs and cats are insignificant compared to the complete awesomeness that is...
Spoiler
Penguins!
Hey, I already said that!

Be glad for it. My other choices were Bears, Bats, and Dinosaurs.

Q, I don't mean to offend you, but... You're an 80-year-old highschool dropout who spends his life on his computer.
And you've not really given any points. I want to debate this, but you don't seem to want to. Your only point has been some weird-ass conspiracy theory that dogs are freaking super-intelligent and they really only do what they do so we don't disown them...
@Vamp: No way. I don't find kitties cute or badass, though they're miles ahead of penguins. So many penguin movies last year (none of which I saw :D) absolutely killed my opinion of penguins.
Bats are sweet, though.
Aren't penguins dinosaurs anyways? Or just really, really closely related to them?
@Q: Batsh*t is better than the mosquitoes and flies that they eat to make it, though. Bats are the shiz.

Now, first of all, that has nothing to do with anything. Second of all, I've lived my life. I have retired. The fact I spend my days on the computer means nothing.
And that's because I don't like to debate. I like to have conversations. Friendly conversations.
And no, I don't beleive that. I just don't believe dogs love you so much they would donate all of their organs to you for no reason, like you say. They are animals. They are survivors. They don't care about humans.
Basically, dogs like humans like humans like their bosses at work. We only pretend to like them because they help us survive, even though they basically own us.
I still say baby Cobra's are the cutest thing alive.
Spoiler
OMG!!! That's the cutest thing evar! Baby cobras pwn penguins, puppies, and kittens combined! *girlish squeeee* Uhh... That wasn't me.
As for bats... *points at avatar* They may not be cute, but they are awesome and I love em.
Dinosaurs are also awesome. I just re-read Jurassic Park and the sequel. So I have a natural "dinosaur phase" all over again.

...Wow. Did you really just say that? Just because it's the internet doesn't make it any less offensive and disrespectful.
You know, whenever someone says "I don't mean offend you", it almost certainly means they're going to offend you.

...It was fighting back against his awesomeness argument.
@Q: Alright, well I'm here to fight for my point...
Also, I never said they would. I said they would be depressed if you died and were replaced by some random guy who comes in and feeds them / gives them pets.

I've actually had at least three nightmares about bears.
Well, I included bears because they have many of the traits we were arguing over.
Nobody can deny bear cubs can be cute.
Spoiler
Nobody can deny fully-grown bears are Badass and Dangerous.

Hey, I'm the Q. If you aren't aware that I'm an egotistical maniac by now, then you have failed again.
And it wasn't an arguement. It was a claim.
:/ Whatever.
And dogs totally wouldn't donate organs to save you, since they wouldn't be able to decide the consequences of the actions. They don't really understand the complexities of life and death. They're not that freaking intelligent.
They would be depressed, though, if you left and never came back... And were replaced by some guy to feed them and give them pets.
They don't think like that at all. They feel a need for social interaction, as do we. You've been married, right? Did you only actually get married so you could have part of your wife's assets and have her do work for you? I highly doubt it. Dogs, just as humans, have a physical need for social interaction; dogs and humans can, to an extent, interact with each other to meet these needs.
EDIT: I've held a snuggly bear cub.

Okay. Agreed. Maybe some dogs so. I'm not entirely convinced that dogs are ALWAYS 100% IN LOVE WITH THEIR OWNERS but whatever.
You can fight for your arguments all you want, but there's no point to it! You're just an angry guy smashing his fists against a brick needlessly.

Grrr! Rot smash puny brick!

To change the subject a liiiitle, what are peoples view on bats? Love em, hate em, wanna put em in a blender? Personally, I love them. But that comes with the whole vampire thing.
Will it blend?!
