If there is one thing I cannot stand ...

... it's people who think that because they are pet owners they're somehow above the law.

Case in point.

I took the family to a city park this past weekend. It has a playground, a beach area, and an off-leash park area for dogs. Dogs (leashed or otherwise) are only allowed in the latter area, not the two former areas, as noted by this picture -


So when the kids decide they wanted to take a break from the playground and see about finding shells along the shore and we go, what do I find?

Some stupid fuck tossing driftwood with an even stupider dog.  Naturally the dog comes bounding forth and the kids - not really knowing any better - get in on it. All good clean fun!

Except for the part about dogs not supposed to be on the beach - now I wonder why that is?

The person can probably read. And I'm sure if I confronted them, they'd just say it's no big deal or something equally asinine.

Perhaps it has something to do with the huge pile of doggy-donuts this dumb mutt left in the sand, that I almost stepped in, and the fact the owner was too irresponsible to even pick it up.

Yeah, he was a dumb-fuck, and so was his dog. Needless to say, I got the kids to eventually move on.

We found a number of shells, including a bunch of oyster shells - likely no pearls.

But it goes back to something I said some time ago - "there is a strong correlation between a stupid pet and a stupid owner."  Combine that with the arrogance of being an idiot and you have another stupidiot on your hands.

It'd be funny if it wasn't me dealing with it - but I find a great similarity between these kinds of people and smokers. That is, a fairly large lack of  rational thought permeating from their heads on most everything, such that it starts to fuck up others in life, like me.

They seem to pop up everywhere - like weeds.
