Many, mostly for work. One of the best purchases I've made.

why are laser pointers really useful if you have a cat? how about a dog though?

This. But you have to be careful with this, because it can be torture. It triggers their chase instinct but if they never catch anything, it can make them anxious. I have heard it is a good idea to sometimes let the pointer lead them to a treat or something.

I wouldnt really consider it exercise. There are other things he does that are much more active. He has fun with it though.

I own one so every once in a while I can shine it out my window and be like wow that dot is really far away.

Yes, it is against the terms of service. Do not use the boards to set up orgies.

What season was that? I skipped most of 8 and 9.

If it had the logo that looks like a diner, I wouldn't have seen it.

I own two cats.

I do but I haven't used it in over a year. They prefer their own toys

Is yours really powerful? So like the more expensive it is the more far away it can go....

The one that was included on a pen. Me and my friends all bought these from Walgreens. Pretty much everyone knew better (relatively) than to dick around outside. It was more to mess with each other in class

Yes

I used to point one at my eyes because I wanted to wear glasses. I was like 10 years old. I eventually did have to wear them btw but like 2 years later (I also hate wearing them now). Prob no relation with the laster pointer since it was just a weak red one and my bad vision is from astigmatism.

I saw one S9 episode that I actually really liked (The Pothole) but when I did a series watch-through a few years back, I got to S8 and I could only handle a few episodes so I gave up, lol.

It's not like it was bad, exactly, it was just really different.

Mostly for cats.... although I have a Cheerdots mini bluetooth mouse that I use if I need to get on my work machine remotely when I am out and about and it has a pointer on it.

Yea I still have a pretty powerful one. I use to work in a very big warehouse and you can see it from one side to another. I suspect it can go longer but have never tried.
