Having just gotten out of a terrible roommate situation myself two weeks ago: congratulations. You will be much better off— less stress and all that.

He's also discovered barking. And his male parts.

Just wanted to say that I love tea. And that my Rottweiler is getting HUGE. He's taller than my other dog, and capable of reaching stuff on the table now. (Yikes! Lost a wine glass.)

Boyfriend is a bit younger than I am, and a middle kid. I'm also his first serious adult girlfriend. I think most of what he's expressing is disbelief that a woman would like him as more than a friend specifically because of his niceness— because if a man is "too nice" a lot of guys feel like they're going to get…

Boyfriend says to me frequently, "I don't understand why you're attracted to me; I'm nothing special."

You are welcome to speculate, and I sure didn't believe him either. I was not invested in it enough to check those sites, but I assure you that, yes, indeed, the roster read "La-a."

My dad showed me his roster, and there was indeed a 6-year-old girl enrolled named "La-a."

I hate that idea of a "family" breed of dog. I loathe it. We're not allowed to stereotype or profile people based on their ethnicity/breed, so why is it OK for dogs? I've met more nasty chihuahuas than pits. I've met more aggressive jack russells than dobies. My point is that nasty and nice dogs come in all breeds,…

Your point is spot-on about Rotties. Really, it comes down to the amount of work a doggie-guardian is willing to put in to make sure the dog is trained and mentally stimulated. But, really, thats with any dog.

I just really liked being able to let them off their leashes so they could run and stretch their legs. It wouldn't be bad were it not for the bad owners. Between this guy, the Weird Bike Lady, and Chica's Dad, it's become a really unpleasant place. (WBL yelled at some one because her dog got peed on; she didn't mind…

I don't like when parents bring their children to the dog park; it's just too much of an unknown for the kids. I know that so long as parents watch the kiddos there's unlikely to be a problem, but for me, I just find it too much of a risk. When kids show up, I peace out. I do not want any inkling of trouble, even if…

It's REALLY blatant. This guy is particularly nasty to dogs who aren't his if they dare get close to his. My Rott is one of the better behaved dogs there specifically because he is a Bully breed— one shot in this state, and if he misbehaves, he's done on this planet. I have been really adamant about getting his…

Today at the dog park I had a fight with another owner. It started because my 5 month old Rottie was chasing his year old Viszla. As puppies and dogs do, they chase and nip. They occasionally whine when the play gets too rough—communicating that play is too much, and to ease back. Well, his dog whined and he started…

This is my idea of hell...!

I want one! Thank you for the recommendation!

I got mine at Ross on vacation in North Carolina. They were, like, $45. Ridiculously inexpensive for 7 for All Mankind. I got really lucky. But, yes— theyre so good I would pay full price for them.

Seven for All Mankind makes them in 36" inseams. I love mine. 1 pair has lasted me the previous 8 years. Best money I've spent on a clothing item ever.

Oh my, yes! That would be quite deliciously gross and hilarious.

I've read the book. I cannot recall if that's accurate directly from memory, but if you pick up the book, in the back he has all of his evidence and footnotes included. It's also cited throughout the text.

I'm worse than a new mom with how much I worry and fuss over this little chunk. I love him to pieces and want him to be healthy. Vet saw him about a month ago and said he was normal but I can feel his ass bones through his back. I just hope he's OK, and that he'll fill out enough not to stab me when he sits on my lap.
