…when i was in second grade i wrote a book report on chocolate fever, in which the climax involved the protagonist taking vanilla pills, which were so obviously the opposite of chocolate to my eight-year-old perspective, but which no adults with whom i discussed the book found at all obvious…
In no logical way does cat being the opposite of dog make sense. It’s just a typical association because there was always a stronger cat vs dog stereotype in media as I was growing up. I learned that cats and dogs don’t get along, are mortal enemies, etc. This of course isn’t true, but it’s overly portrayed in media that way.
huh, for me it only makes sense in the case of cat people vs dog people because they’re the most popular pets and most people prefer one over the other
If dog is not the opposite of cat, then why did everyone immediately know the answer is dog? Hmm 🤔
