I wish I could've the insight of Sandtrap

You like being prone to being a garbled mess half the day?

Does it count if I'm fond of remembering fuck all from this place?

Uh. Fanbases.

I was last on the pickup road for the school bus, so by the time I got on the bus, there were no seats left save for one or two, depending on the school bus that came to pick me up. Anyway, there was a fellow with down syndrome who rode on the bus.

And, the other kids being the friendly little bundles that they were, saved me the best seat in the house. The one in front of wherever the fellow with downsyndrome was.

Long story short, every single morning I had the pleasure of having my seat kicked in non-stop for an hour's bus ride while the fellow made various sounds, usually continually getting louder and louder as he went.

Having feet continually kick the back of your seat combined with loud gibberish at six in the morning is a fucking nerve tester I tell you what.

Depends on what I figure is under the fancy suit and in the briefcase.

I secretly have a fetish for sand.

Why wouldn't you have a phone? Even a shitty basic one?

Well, for starters, he might not have very many people to get in touch with, or he might not travel around much.

And second, landlines are still a thing.

And they're not exactly inconveniant either since they don't fuck up at long distance, and they work when there's no power, unlike a cellphone.

Not at all. Unless you were good friends with any of them, once your contract terms are up, all your old highschool chums are irrelevant.

Then you should try and make something of the opportunity you have, right?

Sitting around and moping over what you have that others don't is just as bad is sitting around and doing nothing. If you actively realize how fortunate you really are when compared to most other people, it would make sense that you do your best to make the best with what you have, right?

So are we going to just sit by and let OP write "pupies"?

Yep. Just act naturally.

Thanks again to the folks who gave me the pointers on glasses. I still might actually need them later on anyway but at the moment, not yet.

I wonder why he didn't just drop them off at a shelter.

They'd just be euthanized anyway...

Gotta love people. "It's fine to kill a dog with a painful injection that just paralyzes them so they don't react to the pain", but it's a fucking atrocity to give them a quick, easy death via gunshot. What's the difference? One causes blood, the other doesn't. So yeah, it's fine to kill an animal in a painful way as long as it looks clean to us.

Or we could, I dunno, not fucking kill them.

Or how about actually making sure your critters don't reproduce in the first place if you don't have the capacity to take care of a litter or find a place for them to live.

Well, yeah. That's obviously the way to go if you're at that point, but at the point where you have seven puppies and no way to take care of them, what are your options? People love the whole "taking them to a shelter" idea because it's so nice and clean. When, in reality, it's far more hellish than ending their lives quickly.

Which I'm aware of. In which case I get off my fucking ass and find a decent home for the litter. I know that shelters put critters down after a period of time when they don't find an owner. So, I get out there and do it myself.

I had a litter of kittens this year from a stray cat that we couldn't catch in time to get fixed. 5 little buggers. Everybody in town here already has cats. And most farmers don't take good care of cats or dogs. But I found good places for them by looking out in the area.

The owner of those puppies was just taking a lazy ass shortcut option either way. Long story short, don't be fucking lazy. Get your fucking pets fixed. And if you have a litter of animals because you couldn't do that, then get off your fucking ass and do some legwork. Take some responsibility for yourself.
