The paradox and other human mysteries

[angelnova]

Usually I have too many rants about how people just frustrate, anger, upset, confused, etc me... And then I learned from watching my boss at work that if you close yourself off by having too high of standards for people, you'll just be let down over and over again, just falling further down that dark hole

Taken advantage of? We were under the impression that you were going to take her indefinately.

We were willing to pay for dog food, but we had hoped you would tell us BEFORE she ran out. And POPCORN?!?!?! What the HELL were you thinking? She threw up in the car and it was whole kernals. WTF?? You tell me all the time about how I don't treat my animals right and you feed a dog popcorn. Nice logic.

And if you really had no intention of asking us to pay for her damages, then why do you keep mentioning how much it was, over and over and over? And then pat yourself on the back for not asking for it. What a good person you are. BTW, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that the reason she ripped up your drain pipe out of the ground is because you let her play with that piece of pipe.

You always say that people give up too easily on animals that have "behavioral" problems, and you couldn't even last 2 weeks? What does that say about you? And it wasn't even a "Hey, I can't handle this - can you maybe speed up finding her a home?". It was a "come get this dog now, we hate her because she destroyed $30 worth of stuff". Thanks for the warning.

But on a side note, since we are being honest here, you think I'm acting ungrateful? Try inviting someone somewhere to have fun, such as Ren. fest for example, and listen to them complain the entire time. Yeah, that's how I want to spend my day off. Your attitude has changed lately, and frankly, it sucks. You insult everyone around you, boss them around, and get mad for seemingly no reason at all. It's pushing people away.

And since we're on the subject of making oneself a victim, stop your "I have no money" pity party. It's getting old. Use the advice you gave that homeless man on MARTA - "Get a job. Wal-mart's hiring."
