Huh, I thought cats were a liquid.

Of papa Lannister, no less.
Is cube a simple shape in physics? It' 3-dimensional and It's gonna do all sort of crazy flips due to aerodynamics and moment of inertia. I would prefer a 1-dimensional point like cat.
How would a point like cat be one dimensional? It would be zero dimensional. A one dimensional cat would be a line.
sorry. 0-dimensional cat moving in 2-dimensional space.
I prefer 'cubiform', but I never realized that cubicle could be an adjective.
Not spelled that way

Oh, the spelling difference got me. Thank you!
