    I always get these comments or similar ones refering to how vicious they are with the Dobes and Rotts.
    That highly aggravates me as well. Firstly, like they even *know* the dog at all. Secondly, does it look like it's trying to eat you? Thirdly, nice way to perpetuate a stupid stereotype.

    That's happened with my moms GS/Rottie mix and her RB Treasure who also happened to be very well behaved.

    I think there was supposed to be a comma between running and using scissors.

    Yea it was probably a typo, because after that it listed a paper punch, crayons and markers.

    Yeah. It could've caused a big argument of some sort.

    If I'm in the middle lane of a three lane road, don't ride up my arse. If you want to go faster than the speed limit, by all means, get in the "fast lane." And, that in itself is annoying as crap, because people tend to think that it's for people speeding. When, it's not so much that it's for people going over the speed limit, as the right hand lane is for people possibly going under the speed limit. It's still illegal to speed, even if you are in the fast lane. And, the left lane is supposed to mainly be used for passing, anyway. Ugh. It just irks me when people get upset at you for going the speed limit. Glad they can afford to get a ticket, I can't right now! (Not that I don't speed sometimes, because I do, but, I don't ride up people's butts, either.) Ok, done.

    I do speed too sometimes, but it does make me laugh when somebody passes me going 10 over and then I meet back up with them at the next red light. I have to laugh because they wasted gas, risked a ticket, and didn't save a second.
