I observed at university that some people can get stoned and it helps them concentrate, so before one lecture, I thought I'd try it, and had a joint before a lecture on semantics.
Imagine my amazement, then, to find myself in the discussion afterwards, standing up to propose that dogs are called dogs because they don't "bark", they don't "woof", they say "DOG!", and that's why the French call them "chien" because all they've got is stupid, yappy little poodles that go "Chien! Chien! Chien! ... er ... ah ... don't you agree?"
Top tip: don't get stoned before lectures, kids, or you'll look like an even bigger nob than usual.

It seems very logical. But can it explain why Cats are called Cats?
I know Wolves can't bark and can only howl which is interesting. ;)
