I SAY THAT CAT HAS A PERFECTLY REASONABLE REACTION TO THAT QUESTION.

THAT IS DISGUSTING AND I REFUSE TO HEAR OTHERWISE.

ALSO WHAT CAT WEARS BOOTS? THAT SOUNDS LIKE A WEIRD GIMMICK. YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT GIMMICKS, CARL.

When bootlicking just doesn't scratch the itch anymore...

Other definition for those who don't know. Like me, who had to look it up: infused or permeated with some substance, quality, element, etc.; saturate

Thanks for the clarification but I still don't know what any of those mean (⁠๑⁠´⁠•⁠.̫⁠ ⁠•⁠ ⁠`⁠๑⁠)

Seems like she's asking if he'd like the boots to be treated with (or soaked in) oils. To preserve them, possibly make them water-tight

[–] Aqarius@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Correct. It'san older term for boots impregnable to water.

Those are actually two different etymologies/meanings. Amazingly, the word "impregnable" itself has two meanings, which are kind of the opposite of each other.

See etymology 1 and 2 here: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/impregnable

For "impregnate", it lists the meaning "to fill pores or spaces with a substance" under the same etymology as knocking someone up (which is etymology 2 above): https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/impregnate

...how is the zebra holding them up?

[–] Fossifoo@hexbear.net 2 points 2 hours ago

Fine, thanks.

Boots probably have a magnet in the tag.

I'm assume that since she works in the city she probably has horseshoes, which are ferrous.

[–] MrKoyun@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

Those are her hands, so they would need to be horsegloves.
