Memorable Closing Line
Viewers notice the repeated sign-off, 'Meow. Meow. Purr,' and compare it to a formal tagline or slogan.
Promise vs. Reality
The sample comments point to the accusation that the cafe had no cats while still being promoted as a cat cafe.
Representative public comments
I noticed on the Purr facebook someone commented "I'm really more of a dog person" to which someone replied "That's okay, they don't have any cats anyway". lol
"You cat people are all insane!!" proceeds to roleplay as a cat when responding to outrage over her fuckups
I like how she ends all the messages with "Meow. Meow. Purr " like the SCP Foundation ends all messages with "Secure. Contain. Protect."
I love how unenthusiasticly he reads out 'meow. Meow. Purr'
> Calls other women 'crazy cat ladies'. > Defends herself by posting as one of her cats.
