I know a cat is bigger than a toad and at some point an animal is too big to stomp and yet, his tone of voice was eerily similar. I'm just glad you didn't. A sand cat would tear you to shreds if you tried.

Anyone cringing at this idea as though it were brutal simply has never played soap hockey. It is an immensely good time.

This reminds me of Ze Frank's project, where he found people on exactly opposite sides of the globe to lay a slice of bread on the ground, thus creating an Earth sammich.
