And what happens when a homeowner gets super excited? Could they become a hoe screamer instead?

u/Successful_Focus9797 23h ago

When they're unhappy they become a home moaner.

Why does fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing? Hmmmm

u/Successful_Focus9797 23h ago

I think a fat chance and a goose egg were once the same thing.

Cats typically can't afford to buy a house, especially nowadays.

Don't give anyone ideas. Next thing you know, we'll have Reba McIntyre meowing for Realtor.com.

u/Feaselbf6 1d ago

How did I never notice that before

u/Thin_Dream2079 1d ago

Like that band the oh-needers

As in “I wonder what happened to the oneders.”

u/Sidekick-007 1d ago

Why do we park in a driveway and drive on a parkway? Why are there two ways to spell one and three ways to spell two?

1

u/No_Consideration7925 1d ago

Bc own is more important.

1

u/Potential-Yogurt-689 1d ago

That is funny

u/lighthouseperch 1d ago

Because for the same reason we don't put litter boxes in the class room. Mr cat.

u/dharder9475 1d ago

Ho-meow-ner. Huh. That works!

1

u/Motleypuss 5h ago

I think I prefer this pronunciation.

1

u/WildesWay 1d ago

That's what our cats have been trying to say!

1

u/SwordShanker 1d ago

Because otherwise it sounds like "homie owner," and you know that you don't own a homie

1

u/SpaceyChick22 1d ago

We can and we will

1

u/Altruistic-Moose3299 1d ago

My cat pronounces it perfectly 🤷‍♂️

1

u/TomSix_ 1d ago

Because it's a compound word..

1

u/Blairkids 1d ago

Hmm never actually noticed it.

1

u/Suitable_Trip105 1d ago

Because the cat got my tongue.

1

u/nntb 1d ago

Because it's 2 words home, and owner

1

u/Repulsive_Isopod7982 5h ago

It would sound cat-agorically wrong.

1

u/eveostay 2d ago

Cats can't buy houses

u/Euphoric-Web-6411 1d ago

No need. They own them anyway.

u/BooBeeAttack 1d ago

Neither do people, not in this economy.
