Gotta throw a little hate out to the shit local media, though, going out of its way to illustrate why they're worthless.

Can this breed of dogs use their pits to sense heat like vipers do?

Because I just poasted a dog-related hate, and I risk banning if I do not poast a concomitant love:

The Oddest Couple in the World - Tonic

Quote:
The warden would not follow his usual routine when finding a pit bull — to take the dog to a facility that could euthanize her within 48 hours. "Due to this little guy's tenacity and I do believe true affection for his Pit Bull lady," the warden writes, "I was not going to let that happen." Cute couples, it turns out, melt hearts.

I want to see an update to that article where it describes the 400 people who rushed to adopt Bonnie and Clyde after reading it. Because those doggehs are so adorably awesome there is no way they won't be showered with appropriate love.

Oh, I think that's a shoo-in. Dogs who get publicity for being adorable p. much always get people fighting over them.

So I say let's aim higher and hope that the 399 families who don't get to adopt these guys are baited and switched into adopting other dogs who need homes, and that the shelters and animal control stop to ask themselves if it's really fair and just that Bonnie needed a cute little dog advocate to get a fair shake at adoption.

Has the Pope seriously just dropped the Catholic Church's official ban on condom use for the purpose of protection from disease transmission? if so, that's probably worthy of this thread, if only for the small amount of pleasure it gives one to see an arch-conservative nutjob finally catch up with modern science.

Dude, I can understand not posting the photo. The kid has them in a path so long that the vb breaks it up and breaks the link. I had to tinyurl it (which I couldn't believe actually worked) after cussing a whole bunch.

Eh, well, sometimes the only way to find out if something's already been posted here is to post it and draw fire.

Teaching My [9-year-old] Daughter To Code

Quote:
We also try moveLeft instead of moveRight. She quickly gets the idea that we can now make him do things. She then says: “But I only want him to move when I press this key. We need to write something like ‘If the key is pressed: move!’” Wow. I couldn’t have scripted this better. She not only prompts me for the next step, she even almost uses Java terminology!
:psst: If you read the whole thing, it comes out to way more than two minutes. Don't tell on me!

once, when i was in line at the grocery store checkout
the man behind me asked me if i had a baby at home...
i asked him if there was spit up down my back....
( i had one of those babies once)

he laughed and said no
but i was rocking

so i read this on my son's tumblr
and got all verklempt


my mom does this thing, that i picked up from her. when she’s standing in one place, she’ll rock back and forth. or rather, left to right.

and she’s doing it right now. in the kitchen. in front of the teevee [that’s where i first caught myself doing it with her].

how do i know? i hear the floor creaking above my head. i know exactly what she’s doing haha.

i love my mom.
