Look, it says in the employment policies thingy that you wrote that we get all our vacation pay on the first paycheck in July. Why did you spontaneously decide to wait a couple of weeks? Are you unaware that it reflects badly on you, and that maybe a fair number of your employees were very very much looking forward to being able to use the money we were supposed to have received?
I would like Dagon the Tentacley not to come back, please. He really worries me. Blue Faced Lady can bugger off as well, and not come back asking for twenty copies of whatever stupidly expensive biography she wishes to talk about at great length.
Could we just fucking skip summer and go right into winter right now? I know, many people love heat and humidity and all the fun lying in the sun getting skin cancer stuff, but some of us really do prefer it to be -20 and snowing. I am willing to trade my summer for anyone’s winter, providing they live somewhere with snow. I love snow. I am tired of bugs and melting whenever I go outside.
People who get long haired dogs but don’t ask how to groom them, don’t want to bother reading on how to groom and socialize their dogs and don’t bother with tick spray or tick shampoos. At the vet-grooming clinic I work in, we get all kinds of aggressive or fearful tick infested dogs that has hot spots or mated fur.
Plus all those people who mix shih-tzus, maltese, lahsa apso dogs and sell them as shih-tzus for $500-$700.
I’m with you. I would like October-November weather all year round. And I’m sure my Husky would too. Speaking of which…
…there’s a reason for leash laws, you aardvark licker. So yes, I was going to kick your dog square in the face when he charged my dog. I don’t give a flying if she “wouldn’t hurt a fly”. The last dog who wouldn’t hurt a fly clamped onto my dog and he had to have stitches about a centimeter under his right eye. So leash. your. fucking. animal. Because I love animals, and I’m sure I’d feel like total shit for protecting my dog by hurting yours, but there’s no way in hell I’m going to put my dog through that again.
OMG, I actually KNOW someone who bought one of these. Ostensibly, it’s a purebred Pomerianian mixed with a purebred Poodle. Parentage aside, that doesn’t give you a purebred anything. And frankly, I know that no respectable breeder would throw away a purebred anything to breed a mutt.
So I told her that it was a very cute dog, but that she had paid $400 for a mutt.
My car’s A/C is broken. Has been for months. I’m just now able to contemplate fixing it, since I couldn’t afford it at all until the last few days. What makes me rant? It’s 98F fucking degrees out, and I had to run errands. It’s fucking HOT.
Yeah, yeah, I’m spoiled, I know. It’s still too fucking hot.
I worked at a vet/grooming clinic for two years, but it’s been four years since I quit. We had someone bring in a Cockapoo (cocker spaniel/poodle mix) that she had paid like $400 for. The worst part was that she had chosen a “breeder” in Pennsylvania, and paid to have the dog shipped via airplane to Indianapolis. She brought the puppy in with diarrhea - it had parvo!
A friend was with her during the appointment, and the friend casually asked, “So, do people show cockapoos much around here?”
I gave her the :dubious: look and said, “No. You can’t show a cockapoo. It’s a mix.”
Her: “What do you mean?”
Me: “It’s not a purebred dog. It’s a mix between a cocker spaniel and a poodle.”
My car is now seven years old. I have washed it exactly once in the time I have owned it. That’s what the rain is for.
I’ve never understood why people want to keep the exterior of their cars pristine and spot-free. Do you also worry about your house exterior getting dirty? It’s not like I’m charging through muddy creek bottoms in my Malibu. Why do I need to keep it dust free? If a bird shits on it, so what?
Lissa, if you leave the bird droppings on there long enough they will eat the paint. That’s a good reason to rinse it off from time to time. Plus, here in Lotos-land, it does not rain often enough to do me any good at all.
I can’t fucking spell. I don’t know what the fucking hell is wrong with me. Sometimes I’m fine, sometimes half of what I type looks like a mentally-delayed chimpanzee tried to play Chopsticks on my laptop. I’m pretty sure I’m not a complete imbecile, but one could be forgiven for thinking so based on the spelling in a random sampling of my posts.
What’s even more bizarre is words like anastomosis or concupiscence flow off my fingers without error, yet I can’t consistently use “whether” and “weather” in their proper context, I can’t remember if it’s “existence” or “existance”, I’m not always aware of my use of apostrophes for its vs. it’s, i before e except after…what the fuck was it again?, who’s idea was whose, and that’s fucking back-ass wrong isn’t it, etc.
I guess if I cared about the paint being eaten that would be a reason. Cars are mostly made out of plastic these days, so I’m not worried about rust spots comprimising structual integrity. As for the cosmetic aspects, I am utterly indifferent.
Unless you’ve got a Saturn or something like that, the body panels are made out of steel. (Trim, bumpers, grill inserts, etc. are plastic; these will fade over time.) Most cars come from the factory with a clear coat on top of the paint; bird droppings and insect guts have to eat through that clear coat first, so you may not notice the damage at first.
It’s not funny. It’s not cute. Wanna know what it is? IT’S DRIVING ME CRAZY, that’s what it is. Short circuiting eyelids are the last thing that I need in my life right now. If you want to continue being a part of my face, please behave like the rest of it and only move with I fucking want you to. Otherwise, I’m going to boxtox you to death.
:eek: I think you should be able to get a prescription for something much less toxic/permanent than botulism toxin that you can take while you’re waiting for your life to get less stressful so that your eyelid stops twitching.
Will you second my motion that we just change the spelling of “the” to “teh” and be done with it? It would save me sooooo much time backspacing.
Hey, you with the twitchy face - I’ve found that twitchy eyelids are my body’s S.O.S. that I have too much stress. Have you tried de-stressing to get rid of the twitching?
I’m not even all that stressed out, that’s the thing.
I haven’t been eating very well. Not enough veggies and fruit. Maybe I have low potassium. I dunno. Eye-twitching is a frequent nuisance of mine. I get attacks at least three times a year.
