    You’ve probably heard the saying that something is as impossible as “herding cats”, used in reference to a seemingly futile or difficult task. Granted, if you have actually attempted to literally herd a bunch of cats for some reason or the other, you would know exactly how impossible this task actually is.

    All of that said, as far as we know, there’s no one out there who’s actually a professional cat herder. If there were, this day would actually be for those folks. This is a day for everyone who has to face the frustration of trying to manage the unmanageable, anyone whose day to day life involves insurmountable tasks.

    .... maybe that should be Heisenberg (herding more difficult if you can't be sure where something is) .... though the nearest I can find to "cats" is this, with hats :rolleyes:

    You gather them up then one wanders away you get them back and off go another two
