OT: proof that dogs are man's best friend

[JoelBittner]

My story. I was around 9 yrs old. An older kid I hadn't seen before was kicking the crap out of me for reasons I have long forgot. We had a golden retriever named Jett. I was in the front yard underneath the creep who was bigger and stronger. I was shouting profanities when our loyal and trusted pet bit the bully on the back of his neck. He tried to stand up and I kicked him in the balls. Just then a neighbor friend (15 iirc) came out of his house and started approaching. The douche sprinted away and I never saw him again.
Man's best friend: a Dog (the only time in my life I ever saw my father cry, was when cancer-ridden Jett died 3 yrs later)
Woman's best friend: a divorce attorney (diamonds now a distant second place)

Sorry to hear about your pending divorce.

Agree; dogs are pretty cool.

GBR - game night!

Can't disagree. Dogs are where it's at.

Dogs over humans. There, I said it!

I have 6. They get annoying

Lock your dog and your wife (or girlfriend) in the trunk of identical cars. Come back in an hour and let them out. Which one will be happy to see you?

It was both brutal and tragic.

Brutal: Two weeks after I give her a classic corvette for our wedding anniversary she tells me she's been sleeping with my best friend and wants a divorce.

Tragic: Months later we are 5 days away from signing the papers when the brake-lines on her corvette fail, allowing me to collect on the 1 million dollar life insurance policy still in affect.

Did I mention cats are also special?
