“The medical bill thing and the legal fault I addressed in my post. Not sure what you are arguing about.”

“Surely we’ve become absurdly litigious though when a dog walker needs insurance?”

Yeah, I volunteer at an animal shelter, and the first thing they tell you (if you are working with dogs) is to never work with a dog you are not comfortable with (no matter for what reason) or cannot control. The second thing they tell you is to always keep the dog at a safe distance from others (people as well as…

If someone is a dog walker, it is incumbent upon them to to decline handling any dog in public (or otherwise, especially around people / other dogs) that they cannot control. Some dogs are dog-aggressive, and that is simply a fact. It (and/or any lack of training from their owner) does not make them “shitty dogs”.

How does liability work in your field as far as these kinds of things go? I would assume that you would carry some legal responsibility for what may happen if you engage your client dog in contact with people in public - is that correct, or no? If not, how is that established / documented - is it by law, or in your…

She also refers to the dog as her foster dog. If it indeed is her foster dog, she does not actually own it - which may help her in terms of liability (I’ve fostered dogs before, and it was not expected of me to be fully responsible for the dog’s behavior, as the history they may have tends to be unknown and the…

“anymore”? When have GM articles ever not regularly been in need of copy editing?

Something can be traumatic for a person without it rendering them irreparably broken, and a traumatic event for a young child is still traumatic for them even if they don’t consciously remember it as an adult.

Saying that it is stupid to not also provide other information does not answer or address the actual question that I asked you (“How, exactly, is it stupid to provide relevant and important information (that the public would likely want to know) in such a situation?”). We’ve been over this already.

“Actually, I don’t “need” to answer anything.”

So, you see the point that you believe the information to be relevant and helpful, but you disagree with what you believe?

“If you are a person (like me) that looks at those dates, then it is helpful.”

My last reply to you contained no response to your original ‘sarcastic’ question - it was a response to your claim that it is stupid to provide relevant and important information that the public would likely want to know with regard to a case of tainted food.

So you think that when it comes to tainted food, the public would have no interest in knowing whether or not the food in question is still available on store shelves?

It’s relevant and important information (so no, it’s not stupid to cite it), and you didn’t answer the question.

Where is it stated that Siri asked, “oh, would you like to jump off a bridge?” in response to someone seeking comfort / emotional support when depressed (or at all)?

Where do they claim that it makes it “better”?

Your “hero” is an idiot.

“I am the modern-day Robin Hood,” said William Powell, 27, after prosecutors accused him of giving away $3,000-plus in soft drinks to customers over eight months.”

Yes, I know they are not the OP of this thread - they moved the conversation from the thread that they initiated (to which I originally responded) to this one in response to my question to them, for some inexplicable reason. Here is the original thread: http://jezebel.com/i-call-bs-anyo…
