Because you are a good person who uses the brain in their head to negotiate the world. It’s very, very hard to do if you’ve been raised in the insidious groupthink that pervades our society’s gender relations.

It’s amazing how many men seem relieved to think that marriage=consent. I would guess that since they see all relationships as competitive, they are thrilled to have “scored” a wife out of the masses of males competing for mates and see the “reward” as not having to “negotiate” for the sex that is their due.

I know you’re being snarky, but this was almost word for word Errol Flynn’s defense in the trial where he was accused of raping underage girls. It was basically, “They should have known better than to be less than fully dressed around me”.

Nothing says “I’m in the mood” like a sexy nightie. Let's be careful with our mixed messages, ladies. Men cannot be held responsible for their actions in the presence of a nightie.

The issue is that THC increases the effectiveness of some prescription drugs by a massive amount. If you could take 50 mg of Wellbutrin instead of 800, you’d probably get the normal effects of the Wellbutrin

One of my greyhounds would wear a coat - the other would refuse to move when wearing it. I also had a Boston terrier that would simply tip over and act paralyzed if you put a coat on him.

The stairs almost killed US, trying to teach our rescues. Mr Momster wanted to carry them up, but I insisted they learn...so I’d crawl up with them, moving one of their feet at a time. We also had to put decals on our sliding doors because they’d run into the glass. Great dogs, though!

Ugh, been there. I printed out all the correct blood and urine values from the Ohio State University website and insisted it get added to my file. I never had to argue about it, I just got tired of explaining to every new vet or tech they hired.

I heart greyhounds so much! They are such elegant creatures. I would love to adopt one someday, but I worry I’ll look fat in comparison...

Staffies are the bestest ever. I lost mine a few months ago and have now got a smaller dog because I have a bad back and a dog that solid when it starts having trouble climbing/jumping onto things and into the car isn’t suitable for me but OMG I would adopt every single one at the local rspca if I could. They’re such…

Yeah they’re 40mph couch potatoes. when they run, they run (and often after small furry creatures like your neighbours cat, which is unfortunate) but the rest of the time they want a comfy cushion and/or a lap. I love greyhounds. Every one I’ve met has liked to lean against you and ask for love.

My greyhound-owning friend says she gets similar comments all the time. People also give her side eye when it’s cold and her dog isn’t wearing a coat. Little do they know the dog absolutely positively refuses to wear any sort of coat, sweater, scarf, shrug, etc.

Do yours “smile?” I’ve never encountered a non-greyhound dog that did that. It used to freak people out when my parent’s dog did it, and I’d be all “He LIKES you!!!”

I have heard that Greyhounds are big lazy sweethearts that just want to lie around on your furniture and eat and love you. If true, that could be a great fit for my, like... lifestyle. Our old neighbor rescued one after its career in dog racing and it was a very nice dog but could never play fetch or anything…

Oh my god that face :’(

I kind of want to smack my husband every time he says greyhounds/lurchers “always look like they’re afraid of being kicked.” I mean, I know what he means, but they are SUCH awesome dogs and who the hell cares what a dog LOOKS like you pretentious SHIT...

Okay, maybe I’m just hypersensitive because his dad makes…

It happened several years ago for us and still kills me when I think about it. Condolences on your loss too friend.

On the flip side, some vets (and rude strangers in the Petsmart parking lot) are quick to tell you your Chihuahua is too fat because of her pot belly and quit overfeeding it you horrible pet parent even though she was on diet food and never got table scraps or treats. Then when you take her in after finally convincing…
