I adore animals but I don't mind people who are not into them once, as you say, they are not cruel to them. Different strokes and all that but one thing I do hate is people who claim to be animal people because they've bought a bichon or a ****zu or pomeranian for a couple of hundred quid but will turn a blind eye to cruelty or strays that they happen upon. Sorry, that does not make you an animal person. It makes you a person with a dog, that's all.

Why was shítzhu censored, it's fu.cking breed of dog lol

I bought a pug, for more money than we spent on our 42 inch TV, fridge and washing machine together. I just wanted a pug as my first dog, doesn't mean I'm not an animal person.
You've taken in a rescue, well done, I hate people who think the sun shines out of their hole for it. Why not adopt a child in care instead of having your own? Stupid argument of course, each to their own.

People who don't speak Irish telling everyone that they should!

The few people I know do speak Irish don't preach about it.

I love animals but no-one wants to hear the story.

I greet "wait til I tell you what my cat/dog/baby did" stories with the same with the same exasperation I usually reserve for "wait til I tell you about this dream I had" stories

Don't worry they were culled in order to free up the supply of frivolous glasses.

• People who claim to be vegetarian but have no problem eating fish. Either killing an animal for food is wrong or it isn't, which is it?

I am one of those people, and every so often someone will make an uninvited comment on it, which immediately puts me off them.

1. The person never said they don't eat meat because of moral reasons. There are many other factors: environmental, dietary, farming methods, or perhaps the person just doesn't like meat but likes fish.
2. I don't comment on what you/anyone else eats, so mind your own business.

People who try to make me feel bad for not wearing fake tan. I like being pale and beautiful. Some women are dark and beautiful. Get over it and stop forcing me to look like a jaundiced oompa loompa.

Pale, natural looking, skin tones will ALWAYS look much better than fake tan. I've always found it to such a remarkably low minded concept that a tan (fake or holiday) makes you look better.

It doesn't.

I was at a wedding a few years ago and the bride and her bridesmaids all had this awful fake tan crap on them. I swear, it was like feckin Motown or something.

Ridiculous.

First, I don't think the sun shines out of my hole, but I think that comment says more about you than it does me I don't care if you bought a dog or not, but you are not (in my opinion) an "animal person" just because you did that. Yes I do take in strays, and I also rehome them to other like-minded people, who in your eyes no doubt think the sun shines out of their collective holes too.

Secondly, you're trying to substantiate a post by comparing buying a dog with adopting a baby. I'm not going down that ridiculous path with you, except to say that babies are not being euthanaised because they have nobody to re-home them.

People who like animals too much, like more than humans. You can just smell the damage from them.

People who claim they can "smell" damage.

People who talk about going out all the time. College is full of so many people who greet each other with "How's the head?"

And of course, extremely religious, homophobic or racist people.

Which reminds me. I dislike people who take immediate offence to someone who mentions they are vegan. I am not vegan, but I have noticed a great hostility towards them and I can't understand where it comes from. Are they just an accepted target or something?

Because you mentioned animals and it made me think of it.








And because I'm judging you

What about the fact that I've taken in a sick bird and a dog in bad condition, and got it back to its full health? Does the fact that I bought a dog cancel that out?

Eating fish would make you pescatarian, not vegetarian. Vegetarians eat NO flesh. If a person says "I'm a vegetarian, but I eat fish and chicken" then they are not vegetarians and I reserve the right to be hacked off about having made them a special meatless meal when I could have just roasted a salmon and saved myself a ton of hassle.

When you buy someone a pint and they accept, sit for the rest of the night and don't buy you one back while sipping away on the pint you bought them until the end of the night.

You'd want to leave the country for being so stingy

It's the word BUT in there. Vegetarians don't use the word but (or eat it).

If someone says the words "I'm a vegetarian but I eat..." then they're probably not a veggie.
