What does it mean when someone calls someone else a "dog", when in fact that person is a human and not a dog at all...? Is it a case of mistaken identity...?

I'm going to take a wild guess and assume you're referring to that post Larry made. He didn't mean... Er, he was using the term as an analogy. Does that make sense?

[kurt_howell]

Ah, so it really was just joking between friends..?

[attorney_at_lol]

Yeah. Well, I mean... he wasn't joking, per se. He was using a dog as an example to highlight my, er, dog-like... characteristics.

[kurt_howell]

I see... I must not have understood because I've never seen a dog before...

[dandyfool]

I do believe it was probably an insult.

[kurt_howell]

It seems that it was merely jesting among friends...

[dandyfool]

Ah, I see. How interesting that one would joke by calling another such a lowly creature.

[kurt_howell]

I thought it was quite unusual myself...
