Not only does this individual get excessively drunk (which we admire wholeheartedly) he also killed a dog in a new and creative manner. Furthermore, we salute the fact that the dog probably suffered while he died.  That's always good, too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three cheers for Unknown Drunken Dog Dropper Man!  Hip, hip, hooray!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.redorbit.com/news/display/?id=25119"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man Throws Dog From 8th Story Window&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;    &lt;p&gt;A drunk man killed his dog by throwing it out of the window from his eighth-floor apartment in the western Slovak city of Trnava, a police official said Friday. &lt;/p&gt;The man, whose identity was not released, confessed he committed the cruel act in late November, said Maj. Pavol Kondel, a police official in Trnava. He said they'd never come across a similar case in the city. &lt;p&gt; The dog owner likely will be charged with torturing an animal. If convicted, he faces a sentence of up to two years in prison.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-115925339161522906?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/115925339161522906/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=115925339161522906' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/115925339161522906'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/115925339161522906'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2006/09/celebrate-hero-today.html' title='Celebrate A Hero Today'/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-114221085261431933</id><published>2006-03-12T16:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-12T16:47:32.626-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Keep eating, Fat Ass!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i2.tinypic.com/r9r18m.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://i2.tinypic.com/r9r1ax.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Weighing a whopping 33 pounds, the nine-year-old cat, astonishingly, still enjoys good health. This feline monster from Qingdao, Shandong Province, has a waist measurement of 31.5 inches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cat is so heavy it needs the help of its owner to get onto a bed -- so expecting him to fulfill his cat duties, such as catching vermin, might be a bit much. It would seem catching a nap, using his own little blanket and pillow, is the extent of his skills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cat has, according to his owner, no interest in fish, preferring to eat six pounds of chicken and pork each day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*****************************************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FINALLY!  An uplifting story about a cat!  I consider this fat cat's situation to be good news for this organization, Pet Free Lifestyle.  This is because soon the world will be rid of one more cat.  This cat can't possibly live much longer at the rate it's going.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we're lucky it will just explode in a couple weeks and that will be the end of it.

Normally I would just ignore this information and move on with my life.  But someone had taken it upon themselves to plaster Los Angeles, including a 9 million foot tall billboard on Highland and Franklin, with the horrible horrible horrible horrifying movie poster, with the scariest dog I have ever seen in my life.  Seriously, if that dog tried to get near me I would run screaming like a wild banshee for the hills.  I almost crash my car every time I see it.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Then Marcel is like, "Why does that dog actually LOOK like Tim Allen?"  And I'm like "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" and now I am traumatized even more.  Then I saw the preview for it in the theatre, and yes, oh yes... the theme song is "Who let the dogs out?"&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I think the real question should be "Who let the Hollywood studio executives smoke crack for lunch?"&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;This is not ok people.  I hate animals, and more specifically I hate &lt;a onclick="window.open(this.href, '_blank', 'width=281,height=276,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false" href="http://americasnexttopmess.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/talktothepaw.JPG"&gt;&lt;img title="Talktothepaw" alt="Talktothepaw" src="http://americasnexttopmess.typepad.com/americas_next_top_mess_/images/talktothepaw.JPG" style="margin: 0px 0px 5px 5px; float: right;" border="0" height="98" width="100" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;overzealous animal people.  There is a woman at my work who has a magnet that says "Talk to the Paw".  I found an exact replica online for your viewing pleasure.  Every day when I walk by it I want to rip out my own hair at how FUCKING DUMB it is.  I mean, I am terrified beyond terror of the person who finds this amusing.  My terror ranking goes 1) Talk to the Paw People, 2) Dogs 3) Actual terrorists from the Middle East or wherever.  I would so mano to mano a real terrorist, but I would not even want to associate with someone who likes Talk to the Paw paraphenlia.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;PS. the Slogan for the Shaggy Dog movie is "Raise the Woof".

There was a sloping hill, I wanted to see what was at the bottom of it. There was a snow covered field with sunlight reflecting off of some ice. It was tranquil and then suddenly a disturbing barking perpetrated my concentration. Four dogs were down there, maybe a football field distace away. I ignored them because I heard someone shouting and I asumed that it was the owner. Next thing I knew the dogs were on the tracks growling. I saw a news clip where drugs are being smuggled into the US by dogs. Apparently the dealers cut open the dogs underside, put in the goodies (drugs) and sew the dogs back up. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;A toast to all illtreatment of our four legged nemesis.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, I have to agree with Iethiopia here.  First of all, there's nothing quite as annoying and un-tranquil as dogs barking.  Boo to that!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Secondly, I have a newfound respect and appreciation for drug smugglers!  That's so cool that they hurt dogs AND deliver healing narcotics to the masses.

It has a message board and a photo gallery and polls and an In Memoriam page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But now it has fucking pictures of some girl's cat on it. I never intended to have pictures of cats stored on my server. My plan to allow my former classmates to post their own photos to the galleries has backfired on me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND WORST OF ALL, this girl posted the cat photos under the section reserved for people's CHILDREN!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PEOPLE - your pets are not your children!!! They did not come out of a human vagina. They are not the result of a passionate night in the back of Chevy or a cheap roadside hotel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sure you could also say that most human babies don't come from hoity-toity sophisticated intercourse between two people who really love each other. But these animals... they come from a horny 2-second fuck between a mutt and another mutt. Their brains aren't even big enough to enjoy the sex. They just attack whatever animal happens to be around at the moment and out pops a furry, bloody mess some amount of time later.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you want to claim these scrawny rats as your "children?" What an insult to your real children, if you ever have them someday. Equating pets and humans is the #1 thing that PFL must fight against. It is a sign that people are getting stupider and stupider with every passing generation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You think prairie frontier people called their dogs their children? No, they called them bitches and and put them to work and hit them if they misbehaved. Why couldn't I have been born in those times? Fuck political correctness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, I don't know what I'm going to do about the server space that is currently housing two photos of Sebastian the cat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What have I gotten myself into?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-112537682430496032?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/112537682430496032/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=112537682430496032' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112537682430496032'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112537682430496032'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/08/i-honestly-dont-know-how-this-happened.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-112525611099595025</id><published>2005-08-28T12:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-08-28T12:09:26.360-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>OK, first we had Stuffoncats.com or whatever the hell it was called.

Why do these sites get so popular, so quickly? Is there really such an appetite for such idiotic diversions? Don't real life and human-focused activities hold any allure for all you "web surfers" out there?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, count me out. Although it does give me something to write about here and, in this particular instance, the fact that the cats are in sinks gives me hope that perhaps the cats are unhappy in the sinks because they don't like water. Perhaps this is some sort of cat abuse disguised as fodder for a Hallmark card? I don't know.

Here at PFL, we hardly know what to say about situations like this.  First of all, we get pissed off just thinking about how many people will go to that site and say to themselves, "Awwwww!!!  That is so cute!1!!11!"  On the other hand, we imagine the possibility that the dog could hurt itself on the skateboard.  So that makes it preferable to dogs that just sit on cushions all day long or something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then on yet another hand, we remember that dogs doing human-type activities are really pretty lame, in actuality.  For example, when I receive a holiday card from some friends and they include a photo of their dog in a professional photo studio wearing brown felt fake reindeer ears on a headband...  well, it ruins my entire month of December.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's most unbelievable is that I have friends who would actually dare to send me photos of their pets!  I guess they don't know about PFL and this web site!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-112431540052278442?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/112431540052278442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=112431540052278442' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112431540052278442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112431540052278442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/08/have-you-seen-tyson-skateboarding.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-112361291302843037</id><published>2005-08-09T11:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-08-09T11:41:53.033-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>See, even cat owners like to humiliate and mock and abuse cats.  &lt;a href="http://www.stuffonmycat.com/index.php?catid=11&amp;blogid=1"&gt;StuffOnMyCat.com is proof!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have gone right ahead and linked you up to the best section of the site which is where cat owners put naughty things on their cats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It almost makes me want to own a cat so that I could abuse it and put shit on it.

I just sent our response back to her.  Hopefully you will gain some amusement from our exchange.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to say that this is one of my masterpieces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, what she said:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;p style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Hello,I just recently came across your site.I read &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;every bit of it and  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;visited the other animal hate sites you have listed &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;on your page.I would greatly &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;appreciate it if you would read through my e-mail &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and relpy with your opinion.I  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;love a healthy debate and am up for one every day of&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;the week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;First off we as humans eat animals.Yes? We've&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;depended on them for thousands &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;of years for food.Now I want you to picture&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;something.There's a farmer.Lets  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;say a sheep farmer.It could be modern times or go&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;back a far as you like.He's  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;losing about three sheep a week to&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;coyotes,wolves,bears,mountain lions,etc. This&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;is a big loss for him.His livelihood depends on&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;these sheep.Whether he sells  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;them,their wool,or eats them.He can't stay up all &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;night shooting wild animals  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;out of his pasture.No fence can keep a determined&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;predator out.He invests  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;in,lets say,two dogs.Probably Great Pyrenees since &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;they are very large and  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;white,blending in well with his herd.As puppies he &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;places them with the sheep so they  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;bond.Upon reaching their very large full grown size&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;they have bonded so much  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;to the sheep they will defend them at all costs.The&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;man now has something more  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;valuable than either guns or fences.These dogs&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;protect his sheep,keeping the  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;wild predators away from his flock.Thus there are&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;less sheep killings,probably  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;none.These dogs have proven their worth.All they&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;need in return is basic  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;care.Food,shelter,etc.They are much less expensive&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;than hired hands and earn their  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;keep by saving him hundreds of dollars in sheep.This&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;story is repeated a  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;thousand times over in the US alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Lets skip to another chapter.Guide and service dogs &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;for the blind or&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;disabled.These dogs work every day guiding their &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;blind humans through busy city&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;streets and deserted country backroads.The service &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;dogs help their humans all day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;turning on lights,closing and opening doors,helping&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;them get dressed,fetching&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;things they've dropped.These dogs give these people &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;a level of indepence they&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;couldn't achieve on their own.To people like&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;these,those dogs are invaluable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;What about those police dogs,out there risking their&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;lives with their police&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;officer partners?They're are out there putting their &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;lives on the line for&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;us.Tracking criminals,missing children,making drugs&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;busts,and finding bombs.Many&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;things,we,as humans,aren't capable of doing.I don't&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;even want to think about&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;all those missing children and adults who would have&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;never been found without&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;those canines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Last but not least are those dogs and other animals&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;out there that are simply&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;our friends.I couldn't begin to count how many times&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I've heard stories of a&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;regular family pet rescuing their families,saving&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;them,protecting them.What&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;about Sasha the Golden Retriever who saved her&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;family from a house fire?What&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;about Nicky,the family Scottish Terrier who alerted&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;his family to a burglar?What&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;about Buddy,the lovable mixed breed rescued from the&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;pound who saved his owner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;from drowning in the icy depths of a partially&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;frozen lake,forsaking his own&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;life for the person he loved?&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;They are there for us when we feel lonely,keep us &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;company in our darkest &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;hours. They accept us at face value.No questions &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;asked.They don't look at the  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;clothes we wear,the places we live,the things we&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;own.They love us for who we are.In  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;the animal world none of the other things matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;And yet dogs and other pets are worthless?They don't&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;need to exist?They   &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;are,as you said,"four-legged freaks"?They do nothing&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;for us?My friend,I can only  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;choose to believe that if someone's vision is so&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;clouded to not realize all our  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;animal friends do for us,that they must be a &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;recluse,someone who has lived in  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;the dark for all their lives.Someone who is ignorant&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;to the world around  &lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;/span&gt;them.For those people.I feel very sorry for you.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;And here is what I composed for her in response:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Hi,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Thanks for your email and for visiting our web site.  Here is what I have to say about your various assertions:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;1) Animals as food - At PFL (Pet Free Lifestyle), we are concerned with pets, not farm animals or livestock.  Pets are often forced upon us when we are trying to visit other humans in their homes and we have to put up with leg-licking, stinky, unruly, and/or loud dogs interrupting our human activities.  Since farm animals are not in homes, they are not a big problem in our minds and for our organization.  Naturally, our favorite animal (if we HAD to pick one) is the cow because we would not want to live without hamburgers.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;2) Seeing Eye Dogs - I can't say I've ever come across a seeing eye dog personally.  But thank GOD I am not blind because I would not ever want to rely upon a dog for my daily needs.  Obviously, dogs that actually help humans and do human-type activities in a calm and productive manner are not as shitty and worthless as other pets.  However, as Chris Rock said, you could also pair blind people with midgets and that would be as effective, if not better.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;3) Police dogs - Big Ups to policemen and firemen!  They are the best that humankind has to offer.  But again, these service animals are not pets and are not in human homes.  They are somehow, despite their god-given disgusting animal natures, helping society and mankind.  They have actually paused from chewing on someone’s furniture and humping legs long enough to perform an important duty.  Like the seeing eye dogs, any animal that is saving human lives (especially without me having to witness it or touch their mangy fur in the process) is actually improving the world.  If I were a firewoman, I would refuse to work with a fire dog, though.  And, one of the key goals or our organization is that I - as a free and intelligent American - should have the right to object to having animals around me.  Just as others have the right to like animals.  Even though I think it's stupid.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;4) You mentioned particular cases of family dogs rescuing people.  Since I am a human with a brain, I do not need a dog to help me survive.  I will never have a dog in my home and I can guarantee you that I will survive just fine.  People who need a dog to rescue them probably wouldn’t have lasted very long in the world anyways.  It’s not that hard to smell a fire, call 911, install an alarm system, or protect yourself.  What kind of person goes out on an icy lake anyway?  I can assure you that I would know better than to ever do that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;5) Dogs as "friends" - I guess it's true that some people consider dogs their friends, but that makes no sense whatsoever.  Animals do not deserve equal status as humans.  And, more than that, it is extremely pitiful if someone finds more comfort and "love" from an animal than from humans.  You called me a recluse, but seriously - how reclusive, anti-social, and pathetic do you have to be to be "friends" with a dog?  Get some human friends!  Focus on people that can actually speak an English word.  Why would you want to be "friends" with someone that has never read a book and would sooner shit on your carpet than go to a movie with you?  Christ almighty - my blood pressure is going up right now, just thinking about people who think that their dog is their friend.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Here is a story that further illustrates my points, from a fellow PFL member: “There is this guy at my work who insisted that I would like his lame piece of shit dog, Buffy, that basically looks like a turd with fur and legs...and he’s all "Buffy is diffffferennnnt.... Bufffy is sooooo nice..... She’s not like other dogs!!!!!"  Then like 2 weeks ago he came in with a big bloody gash on his nose and it turned out that Buffy had bit him right on the fucking face.”  How’s that for friendship?  If that’s how dogs treat their “friends” then I am even more of a frickin’ genius that I ever thought!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;AND... furthermore, dogs do not "accept" people as they are.  They just don't happen to run away from you because you are the one giving them food and water at the moment.  Dogs eat their own poo - so why any one would give any credence to what a dog "thinks" about them is beyond me!  I have seen a dog vomit up a bunch of disgusting, regurgitated shit and then happily eat it right back up again.  Why would I care what such a creature “thinks” about me?  Maybe humans are judgmental, but at least close to 100% of them wouldn’t do that kind of crap in a million years!  For god's sake, dogs can't think beyond their noses, asses, and tongues, anyways.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;To sum up, I think you are confusing our organization's hatred of pets in homes with the tiny percentage of dogs that perform services in society, whether that be as food, guides, or rescuers.  They are completely different issues.  The overwhelming majority of dogs don't do shit all day and people who find comfort in their lazy, dirty, greedy presence have serious mental issues, in my opinion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;And lastly, about myself - I graduated from UCLA in 3 years and I have been a teacher for 6 years.  I read constantly and I am a professional writer.  I am far from ignorant of the world around me, as you suggested.  The reason we created PFL is because it is annoying that we are looked upon as inherently wrong in our opinion about dogs/cats/pets/etc. just because the rest of society feels differently than us.  It is totally unreasonable for people to insist that we like animals, and that if we don’t then there is something wrong with us and our morals or our outlook.  Our views are every bit as legitimate as those of pet-lovers.  Unfortunately many people cannot handle dissenting opinions on this issue, so we have had to band together to make our voices heard and stand up for each other.  If you consider yourself an engaged and enlightened person, then you should accept the opinion I have presented here and on our web site, even if you don’t agree with it.  I have had to put up with the fur-covered manifestations of pet-lovers’ viewpoints for my entire life&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Beth of PFL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;P.S. If my cursing or sarcasm offend you, then all I could say is that you knew the tone of my web site and my sense of humor before you engaged me in this discussion, so it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise.  Hopefully you could get a chuckle or two out of this, even though I am of course quite serious with my points.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-112227877688951240?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/112227877688951240/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=112227877688951240' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112227877688951240'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112227877688951240'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/07/dog-lover-emailed-me-recently-i-guess.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-112076703125421574</id><published>2005-07-07T13:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-07-07T13:10:31.260-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>OK, I'm inspired now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://img14.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mustlovedogs0we.jpg" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;img src="http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2851/mustlovedogs0we.th.jpg" border="0" alt="Must HATE KILL MAIM AND DESPISE Dogs" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first time I saw the preview to this movie, I was in a theater with a really sweet friend of mine who doesn't have a mean bone in her body.  I want her to like me.  I don't want to scare her.  So, I zipped my mouth shut and tried not to react to the literal dog feces that was displaying itself to me on the screen.  It was quite a monumental accomplishment that I didn't throw myself on the nasty, sticky floor of the movie theater convulsing in a laughing fit of disgust and horror.  I can only imagine the ruckus that I would have visited upon the poor theater-goers if I had been there with a fellow PFL-member such as my husband or sister.  It would have been all over.  We would have been kicked out for sure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But as it was, I could only sit there silently and wait for the frickin' "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" to start.  I can't believe my heart and mind even functioned after having to consider that a movie called "Must Love Dogs" would be coming to a theater near me this summer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please don't see this movie.  Please send a message to Hollywood that we will not tolerate such shitty concepts in our movies.  This is the most evil type of propaganda - the type that tells you MUST do something and if you don't, then you are a sociopath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, we know the trust, right?  You must HATE dogs... and cats... and any other flea-infested, stinky, fur-covered mess that tries to work its way into our homes, lives, and, God forbid, beds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, try to put this movie out of your minds now.

Ok, well, it is. I admit it. But that doesn't mean that our members are stagnant in our hearts. We hate pets all day long, seven days a week. It's practically a full-time job representing our unfairly-persecuted beliefs. Many times, there are infuriating pro-pet items in the news and we get pissed off and talk amongst ourselves. I suppose we should take our passions and outrage and post here, but sometimes it is just easier on our blood pressure to try and put the PETA protests, for example, out of our minds as quickly as possible and pretend it never happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, I will try and be better and bring our collective rage over to this blog more regularly. For now, if you hate pets - or all animals - email us to let us know. Nothing makes us happier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After all, we sane people have to stick together in this crazy world.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-112076480024128809?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/112076480024128809/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=112076480024128809' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112076480024128809'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/112076480024128809'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/07/this-blog-may-look-stale-and-un.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-110823930514615249</id><published>2005-02-12T12:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-12T12:15:05.146-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>I'll assume that if you visit this site or are in our group, you have enough rational and intelligent reasons to keep dogs, cats, and other varmint out of your life.  But, in case you're sitting on the fence on this issue, I offer you the following news story, plucked from today's paper:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Woman Dies Trying To Rescue Dog From Cliff&lt;br /&gt;February 12, 2005&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;ENUMCLAW, Wash. -- A woman died Friday after falling about 350 feet off a cliff near Enumclaw, Wash., while trying to rescue a dog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Police say the 30-year-old woman was hiking with two female friends and their four dogs near the Mud Mountain Dam, located about 45 miles southeast of Seattle.&lt;br /&gt;One of the dogs ran ahead of them on the trail high above the White River and fell over the edge. The dog landed on a ledge about 10 feet below the trail but the women could not reach it.&lt;br /&gt;Deputies say the woman then tried holding on to a branch as she attempted to reach out to the dog. But the branch broke and she fell. Her identity is not immediately available.&lt;br /&gt;King County Sheriff's Deputy Ed Christian told KIRO-TV in Seattle that the dog survived.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is yet another example of why PFL is needed in this world.  Countless humans put the needs of idiotic dogs in front of their own, even their need for self-preservation.  This is obviously the incorrect order of things.  Kind of like a child dying before a parent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plus, I bet if you could ask the dead woman if she regretted her actions, she would say no.  She would be glad that she could sacrifice her life for Fluffy's, because - THANK GOD! - the dog ended up surviving this situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Crap, I need a drink.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-110823930514615249?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/110823930514615249/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=110823930514615249' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/110823930514615249'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/110823930514615249'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/02/ill-assume-that-if-you-visit-this-site.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-110782094781069073</id><published>2005-02-07T15:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-02-07T16:02:27.810-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Today we have received further proof that PFL is changing lives every day.  Here is an email that I just got from someone who happened upon our site. I'll have to ask her what words she searched on in order to find us.  Hopefully it was something great like "dogs suck" or "kill pets."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Molly, for your intelligence and enthusiasm, you are now a full-fledged member of PFL.  Congratulations!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, here is an email I received from a grateful girl named Molly who no longer has to feel ashamed or alone in her very sensible and wise hatred of pets:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi.&lt;br /&gt;I just wanted to tell whoever, that I am in such pleasant shock at your website.  I have, forever hated pets and pet -people, pet -talk, whatever and I have felt so ALONE.  I always have thought there was something inhuman about me because everyone you talk to loves their stupid, smelly and annoying pets.  My heart is racing right now because I am so excited that there are normal, smart people out there that think like me.  I could cry!&lt;br /&gt;I am so annoyed and tired of pets and pet owners.  What makes people think you want to sit next to a reeking dog?  Or eat off of a table a cat has drug it's ass accross?  I feel so liberated to be able to say this.  I laughed so hard when someone posted the fact that a stupid dog has no idea if it's walking by the bay or inner city park.  THANK YOU!  They are stupid and heartless and they WILL turn on you.  Why do so many people think they have a human brain and human thoughts and feelings?   THEY DO NOT!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;Pets do not talk, they do not think, they are gross.  I am sick of every damn house owning a stupid loud, disgusting dog and thinking that I want to watch it, talk about it, and pet it, and love it.  It is so annoying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I appreciate being able to vent.  I know I did not say anything earth-shattering or even clever.  I just had to reiterate what you guys have said.  Thank you so much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Molly&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6787520-110782094781069073?l=petfree.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/feeds/110782094781069073/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6787520&amp;postID=110782094781069073' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/110782094781069073'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6787520/posts/default/110782094781069073'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://petfree.blogspot.com/2005/02/today-we-have-received-further-proof.html' title=''/><author><name>PetFreeLifestyle</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787520.post-110015363561560638</id><published>2004-11-10T22:12:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-07-07T13:11:12.650-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>PFL is proud to announce its latest member, Alli.

It's bad enough that sometimes, in real life, I have to be assaulted by people's stupid pets and the details of their supposed "lives."  But, now they have their own social circles on the web!  I'm sorry, but your pet does not have pet peeves, favorite foods, or favorite walks.  It would sooner eat its own poop than look at you.  Yeah, and I'm sure it really notices the difference between a nice walk by the bay and a jaunt through an inner-city park.  For God's sake.  I thought the Internet was one place that I wouldn't have be faced with this crappola.

Our internet soul mate, Alex, has gotten a dog-hating community off the ground at &lt;a href="http://p221.ezboard.com/bihatedogs44077"&gt;I HATE DOGS! Community Forum&lt;/a&gt;.  Even though I have never met Alex in person, our organization owes him a deep debt of gratitude.  As you may have noticed, we have been neglecting this site.  But we were misguided.  We felt that getting promoted at our jobs, having hobbies, and interacting with our friends was a good use of our time.  But, we forgot our most important duty of all - hating pets, animals, and especially dogs and their owners.  We will not stop until the world realizes that owning a dog and forcing the rest of the world to put up with its shit (quite literally) is fucked up and immoral.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look for more updates in the future and exciting things from PFL in the coming weeks.

Through this group blog, we can now more easily share our viewpoints with each other and with the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a basic run-down of why your life would be a lot better without a pet:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;People would like you more.&lt;/b&gt; - Nothing is more fearsome than when you ring the doorbell at your friend's house and you hear a dog barking or see a pet door.  You know you're in for a loooonng visit, full of pet fur, strange odors, and perhaps even knee-licking.  If you don't have a pet, people will enjoy visiting you more and you will be more popular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;Your house will smell better and be more attractive.&lt;/b&gt; - You spend a lot of money to make a nice home for yourself.  Shouldn't you enjoy it to the fullest?  Without the pet hair on your furniture, kitty litter box in the bathroom, and half-eaten dog food on the floor, wouldn't it be a more pleasant place to live?  Conside instituting a humans-only policy in your home.  You won't regret it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;You will have more time.&lt;/b&gt; - Imagine not having to walk a dog, clean up after a pet, or worry about if your pet has enough food and water.  Don't we all have enough problems in life, besides caring for a stinky creature that can't take care of itself?  Use your spare time to take up a new hobby, read a classic book, or just to watch a new reality show on TV.  Any of these human-oriented time wasters are infinitely preferable to taking care of a pet.  Try it and you'll be a believer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt;People won't think you're crazy.&lt;/b&gt; - Many pet owners are certifiably insane and actually believe that a human life and a pet life are equal in value.  If you've ever bought a sweater for your pet or sent out your pet's photo as a Christmas card, everyone you know thinks you are crazy.  And, they are right.  Set your reputation back on the right track and dump the four-legged freaks and join the land of the reasonable.  It's not too late for you to join the sane people again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you can see, a pet-free lifestyle is far more intelligent and sensible than one that involves the hassle and disgustingness of a pet.
