Dear Weirdo: please curb your so-called "service dog"

Is he named Gingrich?

Going off on a tangent her I’m surprised I have never seen a service animal in church.

All the “seeing eye” dogs I’ve ever been around are at least as well, or often better behaved than the children. I’ve seen blind, or vision impaired folks in church, and one I knew had a dog, but the dog wasn’t with them.

Blame the owner all you wish, but don’t blame the dog. The dog is just being a dog.

He knows what “half” and “sad” mean, but I wouldn’t lay money on the longer words.

I guess services held by service animals haven’t quite caught on yet.

Which is why a lot of folks (myself included) would prefer people not bring them to places unnecessarily.

Seeing eye dogs are the exception here, of course.

I saw a blind woman with a seeing eye cat , the cat had on a leash and it would walk the lady to the mailbox and back to the house. I saw this on TV years ago , I did wonder how did she read the mail being blind .

If anyone from Madison, WI is reading this thread, there’s a good chance they’re thinking “Geez, that Chauncy…”

Chauncy spent years, maybe decades, being pushed all over town in a baby carriage sporting a homemade On Duty sign.

And Chauncy’s elderly Service Human would pre-emptively scold people: “If I say he’s a service dog, then legally you can’t ask what service he’s providing.” Luckily, none of the numerous clerks he “visited” every day had ever seen a cuter little 15 yr old toy poodle, so Chauncy brightened up their day.

Maybe that was his service… On Duty: WINSOME Service Dog

Weirdo is too fucking stupid! It takes a lot to accept that dogs are not.

Some legally blind people have partial vision, especially at the periphery. She may also have had a machine that blows the print up to a size where she could read it, or even “speak” it to her.

Just don’t call him “Bill.” Otherwise, he’ll come in your mailbox every month.

OP considers people with disabilities “weirdos”? Fuck off.

Did you read the OP?

Is illiteracy not a disability?

Or even the rules of The Pit?

^ Yeah.

You’d be surprised how often the changing/fitting rooms where I work are used as a toilet

(When discovered, the room is cleaned and sanitized)

AIUI, “Fuck off and die” is against the rules. A simple “Fuck off” isn’t, since you’re not wishing death on another member. Also, the rules are subject to a moderator’s interpretation.

Cite.

Not quite but Thanks.

While you are correct that it has been subject to a moderator’s discretion, the spirit of the "all variants"rule was to avoid them having to even make that judgement.

I don’t see fuck off on that list. Care to point it out? I do see fuck off and die, but actualliberalnotoneofthose didn’t say that, and Miller said he won’t mod fuck off, so I don’t see a violation there.

Not my interpretation, but Miller’s, and it’s his that counts more than yours or mine.

He’s making a list,
checking it twice.
Gonna find out
who fucks off
and dies…
