I can understand a dog's death being more profound that a human's. I've heard a lot of people say that. Dogs are easier to love. People are just so ****ty. It's really hard to love a person.

Come on man......... I'm old enough to have cried like **** over friends who have passed.

When Cindy from back east, who I'd known and loved since we were both 14, finally succumbed to cancer at the age of 50, I was devasted and was basically useless for quite a while.

I have two pictures of her and me on my fridge. One of me and her partying back east during my first trip back after moving, and another when she came out to San Diego for a visit.

EVERY time I see them I kiss my finger, touch her face, and remind her I love her.

I miss her like crazy.

I could see my best friend's death as something that could **** me up pretty badly, but this is a good point.

"It's really hard to love a person."

Is a good point?

100% ****ed up.

Yep.

Yep. Still reflects how I feel.

Is it some kind of personal affront to you that I feel differently?

Then your, "Here comes the snark..."

You're the one who said my feelings are, "100% ****ed up."

No one passed any judgements on your feelings.

Lucem Ferre

I've never had a dog feed me or give me place to stay. In fact, it's usually the opposite way around. And they never pay rent, and they **** on the floor. And the steal my food. Dogs are ****ing dicks just as much as people are.

lol. Maybe so except the "bad as people" part. Dogs aren't perfect either but all I know is how I feel personally. My dog makes me happy and I'm not exactly the cheerful sort.

It is a common opinion that people hold though. People will quickly pull over their car to help a wounded dog on the side of the road than they would a person. A majority of people value animals lives above human lives. As much as I like animals I would still help a random human over an animal.
