Poll Idea: Grumpy Cat – The Unhappy Face of Fame

Oh and great title, by the way! : )

Thank you. You know, ... I always used her for negating options before. After your and Dan's last comments I thought that I always use her image for my polls, but what do I know about her? I even didn't know it Grumpy is a she or an he. Now I know. I learned that by my researches for  Grumpy. I'm also sad, she had to die so early, but she enriched our live by make us laugh. 

I corrected the typo in the WWE-option. 

I wonder when this will go online. Maybe you have a fitting occasion for it. Maybe for the release of the upcoming movie 'Stray' (2026, still not registered on free IMDb) or The Cat in the Hat?

@Breumaster​ Well, I would love to push this poll for whatever occasion you like or no occasion at all. My guess is that Dan will like it, too: I actually texted him about this poll because he likes cats, has a cat, and I believe he sometimes babysits his daughter's cats — I'm not sure about that last part but I've seen pictures of his daughter's cats, anyway (they're very cute). 

And oh wow, I didn't know that there's a "Cat in the Hat" movie in the works: I am a huge fan of Dr. Seuss so that's exciting. I actually discussed him in my dissertation for my MFA: for a  few dozen pages, I went on and on about my "poetic family tree" — in other words, the poets, writers, and other artists who influenced my work. The four that I ramble on about the most are Anne Sexton, Lucille Clifton, Sylvia Plath — and Dr. Seuss. If you happen to know anything about those first three writers, you'll know why the combination with Dr. Seuss is funny. If you don't know enough about the first three to get the humor (most people outside of poets and some literature professors wouldn't) I will try to come up with an analogy using films, lol.

I sadly must admit that I always make pledges to read books. Then I buy them and don't read them, because I'm distracted with other things in my life. So I have to say: I can't do anything with the autors you mentioned. I just know some movies made after books of Seuss. Mainly The Grinch and Horton. I better like the movies after the novels of Roald Dahl. They are more likely my cup of tea.

You can push the poll, whenever you think it's ok. I just thought it would be easier for you to pick a special occasion. But please do when you think it's the right time. :D
