Karen----Would being respectful not includebeing careful of the lterms we use when discussing something controversial? Yes, we all love our pets, more than we realize sometimes, but does that make us shallow to the point of excluding friends, relatives, family, etc from that love?
The term "veggie salad" to me was one of the most offensive descriptions of a loved one afflicted to that state be it from birth, accident or whatever else?
Who is to say that no member of this forum did not have a child, relative, friend, neighbour, etc in such a state? Reading this offensive use of words would be heartbreaking not to mention disrespectful to anyone having to live through a horrible ordeal such as this.

I have to wonder at someone not being able to extend the same love they have for a pet to a human being.

getting her lady guts ripped out...

I would consider this one of the most offensive descriptions of spaying a pet I've ever heard...But I did not do the nasty....

I leave that to the specialist.

I did not read the thread in question beyond the first posts. So know nothing about what went on further down the line.

What I don't understand are the farewell responses - then the poster keeps coming back and back and back some more?

"What I don't understand are the farewell responses - then the poster keeps coming back and back and back some more? "

Grace, you of ALL people should know what "grace" means. Some people just don't have any.
"The exercise of love, kindness, mercy, favor; disposition to benefit or serve another; favor bestowed or privilege conferred. "

My niece's name is Grace and I hope she grows into her name.

If this is directed at me, obviously I worded my "farewell" wrong. It was my intention to make it clear that I would never direct any comment, be it good, bad, or indifferent, to the party that felt I was mean and picking on her.

Will you let it go already?? It's getting old FAST.

[Bonny]

moosmom, I am aging right here on the spot.

Would you like Marigold to post another thread with the pictures of her grandson & son enjoying a fun time with the water squirting up out of the sidewalk? They are cute pictures.

[Queen of Poop]

To clarify, I meant that I was sorry I missed her photos.

What I found tasteless was that quote was unintentionally attributed to you.

I didn't understand how that had happened myself but thanks.

My sincere apologies if I left the impression that you, Asiel, were the author of that thread. You most certainly were not.

Although I believe "ripping guts out" - cat, dog, bird, cow, deer...whatever - is an ugly image. More than a wee bit.

Thank you for having the courage to admit the mistake, I have no idea how my post got twisted up like that but I'm glad everyone realizes it wasn't my post.
