they/them/moo where "moo" stands in for "you" or where it's funny, like "how are moo today, Lupi?" or "dancing with mooself"

in reply to @cathoderaydude's post:
I remember reading in a book about Atari history (Racing the Beam) that some guy used it to show off what could be done and drew, iirc, a detailed picture of Darth Vader, for some exec. They said, wow that looks amazing, what can it do? And the artist/game programmer said, nothing! I used every ounce of capability on this image! Extremely paraphrased but delightful
You need to share this rom with the world, to make sure this cat's image never dies
I found the ROM here ("Cat" under "technical demos/samples"):

However, when disassembling cat.nes, I noticed it may theoretically fry your NES! Consider this code:
lda #$c8
sta $03
sta $2000
You're never supposed to set bit 6 of register $2000. It causes a short-circuit in the video chip. See
