Yes, but I doubt that there are many parents that would take their child to the vet because it claims that it's a cat. Or threaten to sue the vet for refusing to treat "the cat" due to a lack of medical knowledge about biological humans - see the video. That was hilariously satirical !

We used to have a member here that said he was a werewolf. I think wolf was a part of his name.

I see. You have to click on the right hand arrow in the twitter post to access the video instead of just the meme.

Ok thx. Sometimes I'm not sure how to do stuff on my phone. I thought I was posting the whole video link but I'll remember that for future IG posts.

So is it the "copy link" or "embed"?

On my phone, I don't even see a picture or meme in my IG posts... I just see a big square that, when I touch it, it opens IG in another tab.

Never mind. It's good satire.

My son identifies as a cat.

No son, you are not a cat, now go outside and play.

I posted this story a couple of years ago.

Woman says she is a cat trapped in a human body

Did anyone ever post this here? I know I've seen it but don't remember where:

So, there is a lot of talk about kids identifying as cats or dogs "furries", and this is hilarious. Imagine if you can, that one of my boys told me they thought they were a cat?
Sitting at the supper table son says: "Dad, I think I'm a cat!
Dad: "No son, you're a boy! "
My son: "No dad some of my friends at school identify as cats, they call themselves furries, and so do I !! It's my right and you can't do anything about it!"
Dad: "OK!! "
My son: "Hey, where's my supper? "
Dad: "Your supper is in the catfood bowl in the corner. Now get off the table you mangy cat!"
My son: "What???"
Dad: hits him with a broom, "get off the table furball!!"
My son in the corner looking bewildered!
Me to my wife : "Is that cat neutered"??
My wife: "I will make an appointment!! "
My son: "What??? "
Dad: "Your mother and I have decided we don't want a house cat, so get out to the barn and hunt mice!"
My son: "What???"
Dad: brandishes broom, "NOW, to the barn you stupid cat!!"
My son: "Dad, I think I'm a boy!"
Dad: "I thought so, now sit down and eat your supper!!"

End of story!

That's exactly how it should be handled.
