See, now that part makes your balls look like shriveled little bitty raisins. From stunted miniature grapes.
Fantasizing about maiming small weak domestic animals—even small weak domestic animals that are admittedly annoying because they’ve been inconsiderately over-bred and under-trained—just does not come across as manly.
In fact, it comes across as exactly the sort of thing that one of those nasty, spiteful, neurotic, yappy-snappy little dogs would fantasize about doing to a smaller critter.

For fuck’s sake people.
You’ve never heard (or, perhaps, actually said) things like, “I’d like to punch that rude asshole right in the mouth?”
Or perhaps, “If she doesn’t turn off her cell phone during the movie, I’m going to jam it right up her ass?”
It called… well, I can’t think of the exact term, but it’s generally just speaking in an exaggerated manner to express an extreme displeasure at something or someone. While it probably wouldn’t do to speak [write] in such a manner in the other forums, here in The Pit it’s probably okay to express sentiments such as, “If my asshole neighbor hosts another all-night kegger, I’m going to go over and kick him in the fucking balls and beat him to death with a six-pack of that disgusting pisswater he has the poor taste to buy and call ‘beer’!”
And frankly, I’d appreciate it if, here in The Pit, y’all would quit bustin’ my chops over a little colorfully expressed exaggerated sentiments; it’s nothing more than a minor pressure relief valve, and I’d figured that here, amongst friends, one could say something like, “I’d love to form a gang called ‘Yield Sign Vigilantes,’ and we go around with RPGs blowing up asshole drivers in their cars who don’t seem to have a fucking clue as to what’s the proper thing to do at a yield sign,” without a bunch of morally righteous prigs didactically kicking me in the dick over it.
FTR: I do not abuse animals. I do not like people who abuse animals. Animal abuse comes in only slightly less reprehensible than child abuse in my moral guidebook, and I consider child abuse about as low as it gets on the spectrum of human behavior.
Still doesn’t change the fact that little, yappy, pissy-trembly ankle biters piss me off. That they may have been made that way through breeding, conditioning, and poor socialization only cuts so much slack in my book. Yes, I find their “owners” to be as much a jerk-off pain-in-the-ass as their toy rats. Maybe I should want to stuff a T-bone up their owner’s ass and throw them to a pack of hungry Rottweilers; would that be a more acceptable sentiment?
This dislike doesn’t extend to little, well-trained, well-socialized dogs; my cousin raises and trains long-haired chihuahuas, and she does it well. I’ve never had a problem with any of her dogs.
