THE Rant Thread

[Poisoned]

I looked, but we don't appear to have a rant thread!

I'm sure you get the gist.. here is where you can vent! No need t make a whole new thread for it.. I'll start, shall I?




I was walking J a couple of hours ago, it was dark so I couldn't see the loose dog... my neighbors are idiots. I didn't see that their Great Dane was loose until I was about 20' away from it and it came charging.. Jaeger is fear aggressive, he doesn't want to fight. He tried to get away from her but, of course, being on a leash he couldn't and freaked out. She was all over him and I told them "Get your BITCH or she is going to die!" and the owner laughed. I told her it was NOT funny.

And it's very true, that dog is going to die, either she will go after the wrong dog, get hit by a car, or get shot. If I had a gun, I would have protected J.

I can't find any holes on him, but he was limping.

The collar Amber L sent me certainly kept him safe.. if he was wearing a normal collar, he probably would have gotten away and been chased God knows how far..

I rounded on the owners, and told them this is the 2nd time this has happened and I'm DONE. The first time, I got no apology, I got dirty looks.. so the (drunk) woman told me "if this is the 2nd time, why did you come walking by again?" I told her it's a public road and I am allowed to walk my dog. "So keep walking!".

Apparently, I threatened her dog.. which set her off - NO DIP DUMASS. If you'd keep your dog safe, I wouldn't have to!

/End rant.




So what's bugging YOU?

The fact that I have to be nervous taking my dog in the front yard.

I walk/run him hella late at night to avoid dogs. And usually it works ok.

But, sometimes I want to take him in my front yard during normal hours. Only if I do that- I have to worry about my neighbor's Bichon getting loose and running down to my house. Our front yard is not fenced, so I take him out on a leash or a horse lead. I always make sure we stay in My yard, just in case.
When their dog gets loose, it won't listen and come back, I have tried helping them catch the dog several times before, and they will just say: "oh he does this, the more we try to get him the further he will go. So it's ok, he always comes back." And they will just go back inside the house. Yeah. I would be freaking out if my dog was running the hell around!

So when we are out, I just listen for that yip bark, and if I hear it, I take my dog in.

im gonna rant....

i have a dog down the road thats gonna drive me CRAZY. my neighbors built a fence in their back yard, so NOW hes no longer kept on his cable. ive taken him home 2 times and explained to the owners that they have to put him back on his cable because he cant be strutting up in my yard like he does. i told them my dogs are DA and its creating a problem. what do they do? fill the dirt back in the hole and right back in the fence he goes.

ive shot him several times with Hannahs Red Ryder bb gun and he just comes back again. i called the city twice, and theyve have never showed. ive saved his ass once already from Riot....yeah, this dog is that bright, he wanders into his chainspot to mark the place up. my dogs dont need to be kept inside because they cant keep their dog contained, and i cant stand outside all day to protect the biting little bastard. min pin/rat terrier cross would be my guess, maybe 20 lbs, and soon to be secretly buried in my yard if they dont get their head out of their ass.

 

[Dezzi]

That dog is either really brave, or really stupid to walk up on Riot. I'm gonna go with stupid. And stupid owner's too.

 

[chloesredboy2]

Nothing to do with dogs but I'm getting really fucking sick of mooching ass family who think it's ok to live in my apartment and not pay for shit,eat my food and use their money to go out and do what they want while I'm lucky to have 20$ to spend on myself.:mad:

I'd capture the little bastard and keep him locked up in my garage or somewhere for about a week and see if that makes them worry enough to contain him.:lol:

 

[Poisoned]

My brothers are idiots.. Seriously, there's nothing more to be said there. I can't even rant because I don't know where to start.

 

[SweetPerks24]

I wanna bitch about work. (I know, not dog related) lol

I handle sales and service for about 30 nationwide office locations, and they are always putting up new "promotional offers" on our company website, or sending them out in flyers, or emails, or whatever. My issue is that they neglect to tell us here in corporate about any of this shit, so we don't find out that any of it exists until a customer calls in and brings it up. Then we're sitting here looking like dumbasses because we have absolutely NO IDEA wth they're talking about.

If someone was handling all the sales for your company, wouldn't you want to make sure they knew wtf they needed to be selling?? just saying. The communication tools are in place, and have always been, they're just too damn lazy to freakin use them 99% of them time. Then they wanna bitch about "why didn't you offer this promo to try and close the sale?" umm....maybe because you're the only one who knew that a promo existed??!

end rant (for now.) lol

Or just capture it and drop it off at a shelter. Harsh, but y'know what? If they don't care about the dog, let someone else have it.

him dangling out of their mouth

Why is it SO freaking hard to find a version of what I want that I'd actually want to be seen with? I am not being that picky. Thin, two foot FLAT leather dog leash that doesn't cost me half my arm.

Google and amazon, what about that is SO flippin hard for you? I mean flippin REALLY?!

Legasp!! Page 20 actually has a result that relates to a 2ft flat leather leash instead of a 6ft rolled leather leash or how to correctly use a leash!! Whoohoo!!

Actually, never flipping mind. God damn, people. I see no reason why you'd need to charge $40.00 for a fucking 2ft leash when ALL my other leashes combined cost me less than $20.00.

Also, I do not see how "Posessed: A Story About Not Letting Go" has ANYTHING to do with a LEASH. REALLY!!!

 

[_unoriginal]

This isn't nearly as bad as some other people's rants but it's pissing me off..

I have the Mentos song stuck in my head. I also keep acting like my pen is a package of Mentos... So glad I'm alone in this office with no cameras :lol:

I hate shredding machines grr

 

[ZeeAvi10]

My boss is afraid of my vagina. He thinks that because I have boobs and estrogen then my degree, and the fact that I have my shit together is fake. I'm certain he thinks that my vagina is like kryptonite for intelligence. When actually hes the retard that spells awesome...awsome...get this...hes a principal of a school...neat.

 

[Joey&Zoey]

semi long story short, I was walking with zoey out in the country where aside from farms there is about 8 houses grouped together on the road. As we were heading back into town and I crossed the street because the path becomes non existence across from these houses and cars tend to come in both directions in rather large groups. I saw a woman and her child in their front yard. They have a large brick fence with holes through it though and I didn't spot their large pitbull mix standing next to them until I was about halfway through passing their fence.
It then spots us and charges to the wall where the screen is and zoey and it begin reacting to one another. I am holding her by both her handles on the lead and and begin moving to cross the street regardless of only the road being there because I also then saw the gate was halfway open at their driveway.
The lady then shouts at me "it's ok she doesn't bite" while the idiot sees that I am trying to maneuver away with zoey in her total reaction ready to go state. I yell at her "my dog doesn't like other dogs" and stupid cars were preventing me from crossing and that's when the dog decided to charge out. I shouted to get your damn dog and it began circling us and zoey was really giving me a hard time trying to grab it.
Finally the husband comes out running and shouting at the dog and comes right towards us and kicked his dog to get inside. I was furious and the dumb lady had the nerves to give me a dirty look and walk back into the house while her husband apologized. I told him I shouted at your lady my dog doesn't like other dogs and she didn't even attempt to grab your dog and I could tell he felt embarrassed telling me sorry once more and that if they did fight he knew it was their fault.
I couldn't help but wonder what the hell is wrong with a person who just stands there after a warning and reaction. Also walking away feeling completely blessed that the dog was only teasing zoey rather then having to break up a very ugly fight. Also to think walking out in the country side would lessen my chances of loose dogs tremendously :rolleyes:

:no2: Ditto,.. I need to get back to me and living alone. I knew this wouldn't work out before I agreed to it,.. but did it anyway. Hoping they would get it together,.. so,.. four more months on the lease and I'm out. It's not in me to continue living like this. Chris Rock said it best " Women can't go backwards in lifestyle" and I have just about reached that point. Family members relationships what ever,.. doesn't matter, we all have our limits.

I HATE government jobs. BF was originally supposed to come home the 13th. Then it got changed to the 17th. Now it got pushed back again to the 19th or the 20th. This happens all the time, you'd think I'd be used to it. But it drives me insane! :mad:
