Will you please stop spitting everywhere? On the sidewalk, out the window of your car, just before entering the store… It’s disgusting. Stop it NOW.
No way man. This is fucking serious.
I wonder if there’s something you can spray on the wall that tastes awful, won’t hurt your dogs, won’t damage the wall and won’t smell. I’m drawing a blank but maybe something can think of something.
Some kind of hot pepper juice. I bet it’d make 'em yelp after one lick.
Some critters think hot peppers are tasty – and hot pepper sauces tend to turn the wallboard orange – but there are several other products on the market to try, which you can get at pet supply stores for less than $10. I once used one called “Fooey” that was epic: I washed my hands after applying it to several toxic-to-cats floral arrangements, but still had a few molecules of it under my fingernails, and got it in my mouth several hours later. I didn’t stop drooling for quite a while. The cats stopped chewing on the flowers, so I guess it worked on them, too. … another one is called “Bitter Apple.”
My 9 year old Lab has cloudy eyes–I’ve been told it’s age related retina hardening. She can still see well enough to play fetch, even if she has to rely on her nose more to home in on the ball.
My husband broke his foot on Friday. On the one hand, he won’t be going hunting this year. On the other hand, if he thinks that he’s going to get coddled because of it, he’s got another think coming. Yes, I’ll help him out, but I’m not going to baby him…and he turns into a big baby when he has a cold.
I might very well have to put him out of MY misery.
Monday morning. Shit.
Can you threaten with shipping him to his mother’s temporarily?
Both his parents are dead, but maybe his brother will take him in for a few months.
Oh hell yeah.
And you should see the idiot email exchange I have as a result.
What an ill informed twit that woman is!
Ugh.
She told me that the gardasil vaccine is killing young woman, that the risks of the pertussis and measles vaccine outweigh the risks of whooping cough and measles and, “Illnesses provide life-long immunity to a disease while vaccines do not.”
Yeah. Diphtheria and polio FOR EVERYONE! Whoo-hoo! Par-tay!
Asshole.
This is specially true in the case of deadly diseases. You’re not going to catch that again once you’re dead, no siree!
As a 40-year-old woman who will tomorrow start radiation and chemotherapy for a head-and-neck cancer that my doctors tell me is almost certainly attributable to HPV, I would like to join you in smacking this Ms. Hoy person upside the head with a clue.
Gardasil is not “killing young women.”
Bolding mine. That is, there was approximately a one-in-a-million chance you died after taking Gardasil. No actual reason to suspect Gardasil itself might have “killed” you was found – just that young women do, in fact, occasionally die. :mad:
I am profoundly sorry to hear about your cancer.
I hope you recover quickly.
As a health care professional friend of mine points out the data does not suggest that the vaccine is harmful:

As I wrote back to her, do you really think the vaccine is causing car accidents?
Thank you. I intend to! Fortunately, HPV being the likely trigger improves my odds rather a lot over the other causative factors, namely smoking and heavy drinking.
Oh, well played! Wonderful!
I need to go shopping. But it’s absurdly uncomfortably hot this week. Every second under the sun is almost unbearable. But unavoidable if I want to go shopping.

What is it with cats I have, and the feeding of certain high(er) quality food that makes their output into the litter box STINK?
The whole line about high quality food making cat poop less smelly and decreasing the output is a lie, a lie I tell you!
Now, where can I find a deal on a good gas mask?
<< Dogs have owners. Cats have staff. >>
I’m all for my husand doing home improvement projects, but sometimes I wish he’d think things through just a little bit more. He wants to replace the carpet and vinyl in our bathroom with ceramic tile. GREAT! Does he know what we need? Nope! Does he know if a backer board is optional or required? Nope! Does he know if we need to take up the toilet or just tile around it? Nope! Does he know when he’s going to do it? Nope!
So basically he got a wild hair up his ass and bought everything - or at least I hope we bought everything. And now he’s in there, dry-laying the tile, and having a fit when the kids want to see what’s up. Duh! Why in the world he decided to do this when they’re awake and it’s almost bed time I do not know. And he’ll probably decide he wants to lay the damned tile over Thanksgiving weekend. 'Cause he’ll have so much free time what with the THREE T-day dinners we attend every year. Last year, he was in a hurry to install a new light fixture on Christmas Eve (not that anyone was coming to our house) and he dropped the glass and broke it.
GRR!
I can’t believe a bird crapped right on the handle of my car door. Fucking bird.
Are you me? Because that happened to me yesterday.
