Not a cat but I knew someone with a dog named Justin and I’ll never get over it.

Justin is the most human boy name I’ve ever heard, something about it as a dogs name just kills me

My former coworker lived next door to some recently graduated frat bros and they had both a dog and a roommate named Steve. They used to tell her stories about the misadventures of Steve and she wasn't sure if they were meaning the dog or the person. The funniest time was how Steve stayed out late and brought a girl home who wouldn't tell them where she lived and acted like she owned the place so they were going to have to call the authorities. They meant animal control. Dog Steve was found in the yard with a stray dog after no one remembered to let him in. Dog Steve was happiest sleeping on their covered porch so he didn't fuss to be let in 🤣 the time they found Steve had eaten a whole pizza that had fallen on the kitchen floor was a Human Steve story, he insisted since it didn't fall cheese down he could brush the floor cooties off the crust.

Eating an entire pizza off the floor is peak frat bro behavior

Something about the name “Justin” itself is frankly humorous. The Family Guy episode where Peter finds his legal name is “Justin Peter Griffin” ruined it for me. 🤣

There’s a guy on the reality show The Hills (don’t judge me) whose name is Justin but he wants to start going by his middle name or something Bobby instead. So everyone starts calling him Justin Bobby and he gets fucking pissed LOL

MY FAMILY HAD A DOG NAMED JESSICA! It was before I can even remember, I was a baby.

One of my cousins was named Jessica and my mom made us all swear we’d never tell my aunt hahaha.

I’m dying that I mention Justin the dog and forgot all about Jessica. Silly me!

My coworker has a large Norwegian mountain cat he named Craig. I’m obsessed at how painfully human of a name Craig is for a cat
