      It was hilarious but throwing food around... And then not even finishing it (albeit understandable), I dunno... Disrespectful actually 😅 poor staff was probably being so nice and bringing so much stuff because he thinks his restaurant was getting a bad review online... Everyone kept looking so fed up and making disgusted faces. I know it's from being full, but "ugh I'm can't stand this anymore" and "ugh it's gross" looks pretty similar actually 😅

    Baby sling is a 15/10 big-brain move for older cats, so long term, Sharla's cat gift was better. They love being able to be cuddled up all day, they loving that they can be lazy and nosy at the same time. Decoy bag for cats to lay in is a 15/10 big-brain move for curious cats. All you have to do is bring it outside for a trip, and they go ham on it, thinking it's a fresh, new thing they totally forgot about, and you can save all your other bags from being lined with fur inside and out. So in the immediate, Chris' gift is better. It really is difficult to say what is the better.

    I‘m just happy seeing videos from people I enjoy watching, I’m currently sick with Corona and these videos help me going through the worst I’ve ever felt. I hope everyone has a better Christmas than me. Also love to see Chris enjoying/torturing himself and Sharla with a big bowl of tuna 😂.

    I think that challenge would ruin tuna for me forever, but it does look absolutely amazing actually.
    As for the cat challenge... I actually think both would go over pretty well. Not sure who I would call the winner here. It really depends on whether you want the cats to stick to your body all day or not.

    I vote for the Chip Bag. Seems much more sustainable use than the baby sling, unless you find a nice place in the sun to hang the sling for the cats to use whenever.
    And, now I want to go try that Tuna bowl. I tend to eat 40-50 pieces of sashimi/sushi when I get to enjoy it.
