I might hurt some of you by saying this...

    I love dogs. They're amazing. But I don't care about your fucking dog. "You gotta win over my dog before you win over me." Well, 1. Easy, most dogs operate off of your reaction and most just want love anyway. If a dog wants to bite my face off and I'm not trying to stab you, then something is wrong, with your dog. 2. Your dog is going to be dead soon. Might be a year, might be 10. Chances of outliving you are not in their favor.

        Perhaps that's why we love them. They're relatively innocent without much of a concept on their own mortality. That being said, I love animals very much. I think we do because we have them pegged, we own them and know how they work. Cats will tell you straight up how they feel. They don't need you and let you know. Dogs are dumb, fluffy, innocent and sometimes destructive teddy bears that you can rely on cheering you up. Humans are deceitful and hard and cruel.

    But eventually, your dog will be dead. Super dead. So quit lying to yourself. You enjoy people more because in the end, they're gong to get you out of jail, marry you, deal with your shit, talk you off ledges, on to them. They're going to fix your computer, car and roof. They can suprise you and let you down and make it up and change and wear a really dumb sweater and take a picture of you in yours. They'll help you with your homework and pick up the phone at 3:20 am when you're having a break down or break up or breakfast or a breakthrough. They can break your heart and they can make you laugh and they can make dessert and teach you how. They can tell you the most amazing stories and show you amazing things and shift your perspective on the world and open your mind and soul and help you eat cheesecake and you can eat they're leftovers when your late for work and thank god for that. They will make you and shake you and take you and kill your dreams and create them and bring you out of your comfort zone and into this cruel world and show you the one tulip or bluejay in it and jump off cliffs with you or a bridge and help you pick out a dog or buy you a puppy and be there when you have to "put them down" and be there to cry with and on and to and they will be there when every dog you've ever had is gone.

Thank god for humans.
