Some may find the facepalm in the defendant, others in the law.

Either way:

"Greatest" is before "Silent". Silent are those born before WWII, generally too young to serve in the war. That would be my parents.

...and someone must have been born between 1965 and 1980.

Rhino nailed it, Generation X. Apparently there are a couple channels on youtube dedicated to them (us).

Trying to wrap my mind around this. How do you get that many minors to be un-parented (?) for so long. Said he had been doing it for 2 years.

Also, must be a huge profit in candy to make it worthwhile?????????

I once took my son to a Notre Dame game to sell candy for his school and he sold enough to win a trip to Washington DC.

White people love dogs so much because deep down they miss owning slaves. Or so one liberal thinks...

I'm just not seeing that "owner, and master dynamic" here. Doesn't seem to be desperate to control anything... Looks more like a girl who lover her pup... I should know, this is my daughter, and her dog that she misses so much because she can't have her at the apartment she stays at in college. She tells us she only comes home to see Chloe... lol.

 

[eldirector]

Then, why do non-white folks own dogs as well?

Truth be told. Years ago my kids pointed out that all our pets were black.
We had 2 black labs, 2 black cats, a black hamster, a black rat and a black raven (yes raven). Oh and the goldfish was also black.

They were all male too. So what does that make me?

A slave owner?

 

[2A_Tom]

Of all of us INGOers you need to pay reparations.

 

[Dead Duck]

Pay it?
I can't even pronounce it.

Depends. How much work did you get out of them for free? I've had all kinds of dogs, and 3 cats in my lifetime. Not one of 'em did a lick of work*. It's my understanding that a slave was compelled to work at some point in the process of being, well you know, "enslaved".

*I guess the cats might be credited with some work. At least the two most recent have been good mousers/volers/occasional chipmunkers.

Yep. My cat and the raven were buddies and the mousers of the bunch. I had perches throughout the house so they both had free rein inside. They never ate the mice, just played with them until the batteries ran out.

I have also never gone out and "bought" or pursued a pet in my life. They just kinda show up.
....well.... except for the kids rodents and fish.

In reality "we" become slaves to our pets.

 

[2A_Tom]

Do you live on my block?

Are you the one that feeds them so I cannot have song birds.

The difference between dogs and cats:

Dogs - These people feed me, provide me with shelter and attend to my every need. They must be gods!

Cats - These people feed me, provide me with shelter, and attend to my every need. I must be a god!



Actually my current cat almost acts more like a dog than the dogs do. Always follows me around as soon as I get up and likes to hang out on the deck, when the dogs are wanting to hang out in the AC (or heat), always comes to greet me as soon as I get home from the office and hangs out until I change into my "home" clothes. She's just a little over half their age though.

I have a cat and a bird feeder. She (the cat) doesn't pay any attention to the bird feeder, but I kind of wish she would pay more attention to the chipmunks that raid it from time to time. She's only caught 1 (to my knowledge) this year so far. I also had a family of house wrens move into a saguaro "knee"(?) that sits out on our deck. And have had lots of Robins nests on or near the deck. Cat doesn't bother them either.

 

[2A_Tom]

I have a couple of neighbors that feed every stray cat that they can attract. I cannot get birds to come anywhere near my house. The cats lie in wait on my deck ans chase anything that comes near.

We need less bleeding heart liberals and more kill shelters.

Is it true that they took the ingredient out of antifreeze that kills cats?

Yes. And getting most cats to drink antifreeze is tough. They aren't really motivated by sweet stuff. Now, fat is a different ballgame.
