Works 110 hours a week my fuckin' rear end. I will bet he sits around doing gently caress-all and getting drunk while his underpaid staff runs the place.

anyone who claims to work 15 hours a day, 7 days a week as the owner of a bar definitely works maybe 2 hours a day and spends the rest of that time screaming at his dishwasher, screaming at the servers, screaming at the TV in the corner showing CNN during the day and showing college football at night

For some reason over the last 6 or so years there's been some kind of "dog acceptance" movement. Like dog owners have collectively decided that everyone should have dogs in their face at all times. Can't just take them on a walk, they have to take them everywhere.

"poor Wishbone eats my furniture if I leave him at home, I gotta take him to work!"

"It's ok, my dog is super friendly, never mind that he's a 60lb lab that just got finished running through mud and just jumped on you when your hands are full, just pet him, he just wants to be your friend!"

"bitch, I don't wanna pet your fuckikng dogs!"

just turn pale and start sweating and look like you got the chili bowl fever and theyll cross the street to avoid you

If they let the homeless guy die, he'd complain about the smell and how it's affecting his business.

If they had animal control go around with packs of vultures, he'd complain about his tax dollars going to the clean up crews.

Some people are just fundamentally unhappy.

I know how you feel, I've got a cairne terrier who will viciously go after anything smaller than her. Not as bad around people, but definitely not super friendly

I just warn people, "hey he was abused and abandoned before I adopted him so he's not great around people at first, so please don't run up and grab his face I SAID PLEASE DON'T RUN UP A- aw goddamnit man"

A few weeks ago my forever-indoor cat got out and I looked until I couldn't look no more. I was laying in bed all freaked out trying to not thinkg about her getting hit by a car or something and I heard a big hiss/growl like right outside my window.

Turned out she walked like 15 feet from our door, got stuck in a plumbing access hole right in front of our place and some other cat came over and sprayed/pee'd on her while she was down there lmao.

my question for people like that dude who owns a bar would be

what are you even going to use the money you get back from taxes for

is he going to use it so he can stop working all the time? probably not his identity seems tied to the work.

so like, buy a slightly nicer house or car? you want homeless people to die for that?

I'm thinking a lot of folks just don't make it to the "people will die" part when they are doing their thinking faces, that or they don't care that people will die. Same with war and actually never mind they are just lovely people being lovely.

My dog also has a really weird form of wanderlust where he never ever tries to get away from us, clearly loves us to death and wants to be around my wife all the time, but if we're not around and he has the chance he'll just straight up start walking off to go who knows where. The shelter we got him from said someone found him just wandering around the eastern WA apple orchards in the middle of nowhere.

The really odd thing is that my mother in law has a poodle/wiener dog mix that hangs out outside their house all day, patrols the yard, never leaves the property. But if my dog is around he like goads this dog into joining him on these adventures as a pair.


He's a nut case. I'm sure he had some loving family before that he pulled this on and they just never found him and he went scavenger mode.

if I had to guess based on the types that I've met in my years running restaurants, I'd say he works the bar himself because he can't find somebody who will take that sort of responsibility for him, and his service staff either doesn't exist or is entirely attractive young women who he constantly sexually harasses
