The male is Death? Does that mean I have to beat it at chess? Can we make it best two out of three in Connect Four instead? Everybody knows that pit bulls are terrible at Connect Four.

Okay, that’s it, I’m starting a tag for “punctuationally challenged”.

    At least she’s being honest…but she’s not doing a good job of getting people to want that male dog.
    Also, I really want to ask about the house getting torn down…how does that just happen?

      I suspect this is one of those Hoarders things – what with all the lack of punctuation, death dogs, and bullying by baked goods, the building was just destroyed beyond all hope of salvation. I strongly suspect that a government entity has placed a brightly colored sign on this house with words to the effect of “Danger! Do not enter! Not safe for human habitation!”

    Having had a deaf cat for 15 years, I really fail to see what that has to do with the dog’s health. Sid was fine and used the inability to hear as an ability to get away with anything he wanted – I think if he had a choice, he would have preferred to be deaf! Oh, I’m sorry, death… Actually he is death NOW, er, dead…. but wasn’t when he was deaf. Huh? How do people keep their misspellings and bad grammar straight? Because I certainly can’t do it.

    Props to them for trying to find good homes for their dogs. Hopefully a good home will be able to read through all of that and figure out what, exactly, they’re offering to adopt: Long, skinny dogs. One of which has a gender identity problem because she is named after the god of light rather than any of the other, more gender appropriate, ancient Greek deities.

    Why why why why no periods?! If you can manage parentheses, can’t you throw in a comma here or there?

    Spelling errors and lack of punctuation aside, I like that she seems familiar enough with Greek mythology to know the names of Adonis and Apollo, but not enough to know that Apollo is a dude.

    “the male (adonis) is death and is always at the vet for something and stays under weight no matter how much I feed him but the vet says he’s pretty healthy so that’s a plus”

    Now, I’m not a vet, but that does not sound healthy at all. Not even “pretty” healthy.

      Yeah, that bothered me, too. If he’s so damned healthy, what is he going to the vet all the time for, eyebrow waxing? I don’t think so.

    I’m just impressed that this woman is able to look like a mom talking to a two-year-old whilst admonishing underweight Death. The whole thing is so iconic.

    I’m confused (surprisingly), she used to walk past a sign that said lost dog so she phoned them and they gave the dog to her. Even if the sign was actually one for a FOUND dog it just seems strange that they’d give it away to someone who isn’t actually the original owner

    With no regards to my breathing, I went ahead and read this a second time. ok.can.exhale.NOW!!!!

    Amazing that someone who has the knowledge to name her/his dog after Greek gods would not be aware of something as simple as punctuation or spell check (granted, the knowledge of Apollo’s gender escaped the person).

    But this brings to mind questions (about this person and others who are punctuation-challenged). So many questions that beg to be answered.

    Do they live in some sort of alternate universe where one is charged for the structure and organization we take for granted? Are the poor denied periods and commas (but are given an ample supply of parentheses) in this senselessly cruel alternate universe? Do ads for lost dogs in this other place actually mean that the owners of said dogs WANT to lose them? And what on earth (in either universe) does a very long 50 – 60 pound bully bread death dog look like, anyway?

    If one dog is Death, the destroyer of worlds (and thus of apartments), why would any apartment take him? Anyway, I thought that Death was Thanatos, not Adonis.

    “I have pic of the 2 dogs imgiving away free to good homes”

    So if I wanted Apollo, and this Sparky pics Adonis for me instead, do I have to take him? What a bully!

      Oh, I see! I thought it meant she was giving away pictures of the dogs. It all becomes clear now.*

    It has been a challenge for me to be punctual for quite a spell.
    Oh, wait that has nothing to do with this.

    Problems with this ad:
    Should be ” no apt. is apt to let us have 4 dogs”
    “the male (adonis) is death”, no he isn’t. I’ve seen death on Family Guy and Death is not a dog.
    I don’t want to look like a mom doing anything.
    “I got her as a companion for adonis”. What about the other 2 dogs, can’t they be companions? What about you? Don’t you get a pet to be a companion for you? Aren’t you adonis’ companion? By the way, Adonis should be capitalized, it’s a proper noun.
    You are having an interview with a good friend of yours, but you can’t interview her at her house?

    Tuh! *flings hands in air*

    I didn’t make the deaf connection at all. I think my general mental breathlessness may have been the culprit.

    If the female talks, why couldn’t SHE have written the ad?

    You thought I was going to go all chauvinist didn’t you?

    YooHoo, LimeLolly – you and I are in the baux together! You can’t imagine how long I’ve waited for this moment. And it is so nice to be the first ones in here after Windy redecorated after the puppy/monkey/etc. debacle.

    This is really nice, new original art on the wall, a jacuzzi with a running motor, and the carpet and drapes match. I’ll be back after I slip into something comfortable…

    When they say ‘bleach white’… how white is that? Is that white on rice? White as snow? So white it yellowed? I only use mind bleach and it still leaves streaks.

    “he will imidiatly stop doing what he’s doing if he sees u doing it”

    So, if he’s licking his crotch, he will stop if he sees you do it.
    If he is eating cat scat, he will stop if you eat some.
    No way, no how. You can keep him.

    Our pug is almost completely deaf. It only becomes a problem if he gets off leash, because there is no way to call him back. He does good with sign language commands, and he does follow verbal commands if we say them loud enough. It gets us odd looks when we take him places. We have to explain that he is hard of hearing when they ask why we are shouting at such a cute little dog.

    Everyone is giving her entirely too much credit for knowing enough about Greek mythology to name two dogs Adonis and Apollo. I’m betting she named them after male strippers.
