I think I have to go acquire a guinea pig so I can name it Pugger P. Or possibly a pug.

The guinea pig in my dream a few nights ago was named Xaoax.

Seemed relevant.

I'm required to name the next unnamed creature I meet "Spockers," so consider carefully whether to extend me an invitation to your baby shower.

I'm lucky that this isn't nearby, because the thought of a pair of guineas named Bless & Bat is too much for my little heart.

I have laughed heartily at every post about the neural network. This one is just the cutest one!
