Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 If we can have a "favorite pony" poll, surely it is not out of the question to inquire into other forms of cute. I expect photographic evidence if you intend to convince your associates. I have been fairly complete in my listings, and apologize if I missed something glaring. I'm going to confine this mostly to chordates, particularly mammals. If you have an objection, go cuddle a flatworm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk nikki. Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I voted horses. Especially those two poor creatures which died at the Grand National Today. Though, I guess, what does animal cruelty and mistreatment matter when we're all lining our pockets with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Kittens are the cutest thing in this world. As evidenced below. Baby Rhode Island Reds are kinda cute too, except they crap everywhere and chirp obnoxiously. Nothing compared to kittens though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Ooo... I forgot owls. I mean, I guess they count under birds (other), but they probably deserved their own category. Also, and put in a stronger showing than most people grant then. It's hard to argue with the kitten camp, though. Originally Posted By: off/on I voted horses. Especially those two poor creatures which died at the Grand National Today. Though, I guess, what does animal cruelty and mistreatment matter when we're all lining our pockets with it? I was not aware we still did this. I mean, I know the West was built on such practices, but we allow it in SPORT..? Hmph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Enraged Slith Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 If there was a scientific method of quantifying cuteness, bunnies would come out on top. I will never understand the love of kittens, because they look like aliens and turn into massive pests. EDIT: Seals come in a close second.

Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 If you haven't seen "Babe", Slith, you may want to go do that. I take it, Dikiyoba, that you went a different route since "Arthropod (Other)" is not checked. I, myself, am an outlier, but only because I feel that big cat cubs represent more to cuddle than their domestic counterparts. The last option had Dantius and his ilk in mind, yes. Although, to be fair, there have been many more humbuggy figures on Spiderweb since I joined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall A less presumptuous name. Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 My first though was seals, but I actually got to play with two tiny and adorable kittens yesterday.

Ineffable Wingbolt Erebus the Black Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I went with undecided because of the nagging idea in my subconscious that all living creatures are survivalistic in nature and therefore Evil (as current society defines it). P.S. I'm in a bad mood as I am supposed to be asleep but a certain family member had to watch a movie (with many explosions) loudly and scared my sleepiness away, now I need to figure if payback is due or should I just bare with it for two more weeks before s/he leaves.
