I love this stuff.

quote:

In his civil answer, Golden said that he denies causing any damage to the driver, and added that even if there were any damages they "were proximately caused by the negligence, fault or carelessness" of Caban himself," or "other third parties."

In other words, "I didn't actually hurt the guy, but if I did, it was literally anybody's fault but mine."

I've known dozens of golden retrievers. They are all very obedient animals - so long as you hold the treats. Leave the treats on the ground and you get that mess.

Honestly to me it looks like they were trying to make a fake fail video and accidentally succeeded in making a real one. The first one just seems too staged to me.

I think they wanted to just put the ball on fire, so it leaves a trail of fire behind it when it rolls. Soaking the table with fuel is not the right way to do that.

Both cats and dogs, in my experience, have a really strong reflex against contact around the hind legs, but I'm no zoologist. Must be some evolutionary instinct. :shrug:

Most of janky cat behavior comes from the fact that cats operate reactively basically all of the time. The cat was already riled up, and its back paws touching something triggered an 'attack the motherfuck out of that' reflex. Then, since the cat was getting the poo poo clawed out of it by these loving legs (which unrelatedly happened to belong to it), it counterattacked and pretty easily pinned them down.

My oldest current pet cat has had a lifelong unawareness of her own tail. She chased it all the goddamn time when she was a kitten, gradually decreasing as she ages, and to this day after almost 9 years of living with a tail will occasionally get spooked by it and run away. Also, when she perches on the rim of the tub while I'm bathing and her tail inevitably falls in, it takes her a few moments to notice and then when she does she gives it the most disgusted, derisive look before pulling it out of the water with her paws and then holding it down while she grooms it.

If I'm petting her really good, and she's to the point where she's lying on her side all cat-melty from the attention, I can trap her tail against the floor with my other hand. It'll keep trying to move, and she'll get gradually angrier but also confused, because I'm still delivering the rubs. This is key, because it also distracts her from what my other hand is doing. Generally she'll stay in place, gradually extending her claws, getting crazy eyes, and then starting to growl and yowl, until I finally feel bad enough to let her tail go!
