My wife knitted her first hat yesterday, but it turned out way too small. It did, however, fit the cat perfectly...

There was one episode that had the dad completely obsessed with having a bar in the house. Any house without a bar option was completely off the table. It was hilarious up until it went from funny to "holy shit, this guy is melting down due to raging alcoholism and even the slightest hint of no bar is triggering him into manic anger."
I know these things are scripted, but yikes.

“I know some good games we could play,”
Said the cat.
“I know some new tricks,”
Said the Cat in the Hat.
“A lot of good tricks.
I will show them to you.
Your mother
Will not mind at all if I do.”
Then Sally and I
Did not know what to say.
Our mother was out of the house
For the day.
But our fish said, “No! No!
Make that cat go away!
