    My head hurts.

    edit - note to self don't post in AMT during working hours ever again

    Sorry, man...whether or not you stand by your convictions (and whether or not made during work hours), expect to be called on them. We're all in that boat.

    Don't be sorry.
    It was meant to be funny.

    Some people feel it different than you why does it have to be your way couldn't you just have said hey sorry for your loss and kept it moving ...I do have two kids a dog a cat a rabbit so yeah I know a bit about both ...

    it wasn't HIS LOSS. read the thread. I could say the same.....why does it have to be his way? he was as adamant in his opinion as I am in mine. sorry, but when someone says something I disagree with, I usually tell them that. I'm not a dick. I can be honest without being a fucking asshole.

    I usually just listen & keep it moving subject like this is not worth the difference of opinions ...
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    Here's the thing. Your kid will always, only be special to YOU. You are the only one that thinks your kid deserves greater affections than anything else. Only YOU think that about your kid. And honestly, I find that laughable.. Apathetic?? Yes. And with good reason. What has your daughter ever done that I should choose her over her dog? What has she ever done to prove she's more important to anyone other than YOU, or her mother?? Now as I stated before, kids have a small window of reprieve with me, because they haven't learned to be fucked up yet.... So in that instance yes, I'd save the kid first.. IN THE HOPES that the kid makes good life decisions and turns out to actually BE one of one billionth the population, and becomes a great human being. As for my personal experiences, that was stated to support the reason behind why I hate humans so deeply.. Apathetic?? Fuck yeah.. I have very very very rarely been given a reason to be sympathetic. Your kid isn't all that special to anyone but you.. I have NO good reason to favor her, period.

    I guess that's where we differ. I find all humans to be worth something. my daughter doesn't need to prove to anyone (other than you, apparently) that she's worth saving over a dog.

    my daughter is special to most, if not all, that know her, actually. it's really sad you feel you needed to say that. that is a really cruel thing to say.

    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer
