Sick of assholes who let their dogs run around neighborhoods without a leash, let their dogs bark endlessly without intervening, and leave dogshit on other people’s lawns. Dickheads.

I really like dogs. I do not like the 5 - 6:30 pm window where every single person walks their dog through our neighborhood while all of the other dogs (including mine) bark the entire time.

When did we, as a society, start being okay with everyone pronouncing it "know-n?"

It's known. Say known. It's known. It's not know-n.

At least these people actually walk their dogs. Both of my old neighbors were the types of lazy assholes that just shoved their dogs into the backyard a few times a day and let it bark.

Sort of a separate issue but I don’t vibe with dogs at all. I find them very obnoxious. Way too energetic and all over you and needy. And dirty and smelly. Hate it. Which is unfortunate because dogs always like me.

I have an innate animal affinity, so all animals are calm and reverent towards me. Dogs, being manifestations of pure love, are especially at peace around me, knowing that I'm so cool.

I don't eat meat or animal products, so I don't smell like a carnivore. Little animals love me, bunnies flock to me
