Look, I think it's great that you love your animals as if they were your very own children, and despite the sanitary concerns of letting them sleep with you at night, I don't object to that show of affection as well. But do you need to bring three dogs and a parrot on your shoulder to get coffee in the morning? Must we all conform to your self-absorded behavior by turning the other cheek when they enter the cafe and start licking our toes and otherwise causing a ruckus?
I think not.

with a slight tweaking of the narrative, one could apply this missive to children as well. :)

... except bringing animals into a place where food is served is a violation of health codes.

"despite the sanitary concerns of letting them sleep with you at night"
I think my dogs are probably more sanitary then my 9 yr old. At least when they eat, most of it ends up in their stomach and not smeared across their face...

licking your own ass is the new wet-nap?

I love when parrot owners object to the attention they receive upon going out in public with a colorful bird on their shoulder. I mean, how dare people stare or ask questions.

I grew up in the wilds of southern Ontario and one of my neighbours used to get 'pets' from Marineland in Niagara Falls. I woke up one morning during summer vacation and there was a zebra standing in my backyard... that was queer....
He also had a Llama and a silver fox, well, until my dog killed it...

How about those people that give their pets myspace accounts.

completely unrelated except the fact that i'm talking about an animal but... sunday afternoon my wife and i were in the kitchen. we looked out of the window and saw a BIG fucking black bear running across the street.
'twas awesome.

I agree, kj. I wish I could be an animal lover (or do I?), but I'm not. I'm fine with other people owning pets...I just have my suspicions about sanitary conditions as well. Plus, I'm allergic to certain furs.

Yesterday I saw a seagull gank a pack of cigarettes at the Marina greens. This tourist put them down on some benches to light his Newport, and while staring off into the abyss a crew of four birds dropped in. One in particular seemed to know what he was doing when he put the pack in his mouth and took off. The smoker got all crazy and started running and cursing but he had no chance. The man was German. I believe his name was Max.

Enter response:
pets should be curbed... I love mine... but damnit-they don't belong in the farking coffee shop... EVER.
...just a side note... I was in a strip club not long ago (deal with it - I like breasts)... and some BLIND fella came in... w/his seeing eye dog.
true story.

+1 for using the word "gank" in a sentence. It's been a while.

i refuse to go grocery shopping without my team of ducks, though i do loath the staring.
- kingjulien0
since i moved to chinatown, i've begun looking at ducks in an entirely new light.

(Jul 25 06, 10:53)haha. seriously though, that shit happened. wasn't on any hallucinogens. there are hawks all over the place in california.
why one would want to get a bird, and then clip it's wings is beyond me.
- billl0
we had a little conure once and clipping it wings was mandatory, otherwise it would have shred the house to bits
