I created this account a few years ago with the intent of always being brutally honest, hard on content, and extremely insensitive and argumentative while still occasionally funny. It worked pretty well for a while and I even was #58 at one time. Then a tone shift happened and people got extremely sensitive. Then, additionally, admin made it to where troll account could not only succeed but thrive. And then finally I had to move and I didn't have internet for a year, so I was mostly forgotten (MUH e-fame!)
So now, those things combined means that everyone is super sensitive and wary of being trolled. They view everything through a filter. Which is fine really, I enjoy this more than getting top comments.
It's still a living being. Where do we get the right to decide if it lives or dies? That's just playing god and acting superior to the highest point possible.
We are superior and we do get to decide about that living being if it's a dog. I've had to put down plenty of animals growing up on a farm, it's not easy, nice or anything, but sometimes its the right thing to do.
Yes but this one can be healed and it was. If the animal is in pain and NO way to be healed, yeah put it down but if it's this dog and there are ways to get this adorible mother ****** back to good health and you want to, ******* do it. You'll have a best friend for life if you do that.
I agree, 100%. But if the vets initial response to this incident would have been "lets put it down", I wouldn't disagree. This incident could've easily gone the other way, dragging this poor dog through painful surgery, all leading to a slow and painful death.
Anyhow, it's one cute as hell slideshow, and it's one of those things that just puts a smile on your face.
-oh wow it's been a while I dont see a comment get this many pinkies, that was a good troll!
>see it's tittylovin
>realise his statement deep in his heart was sincere
>be slightly mad and move uncomfortable in my chair
your comment added not laughter, or thoughtful discussion, not even a stupid meme. why bother saying something you know is JUST going to piss people off without affecting any kind of change or thought?
it actually could have added a thoughtful discussion, you know, along the lines "we care sooo much about an animal because it's a certain species, but we give a **** about, say, cows and pigs and mock those who do, how does that make sense".
But then again, when has fj ever been a place for thoughtful discussion.
we EAT cows and pigs. dogs are pets because of how they interact with humans. they are easily trained, protective, and good for improving mood. not to mention other uses pets can have like cats and dogs trained to sense and aid seizure victims, or seeing eye dogs, or search and rescue, k-9, bomb dogs. dogs are without question the MOST important animal in human history. if you removed any other animal life would change sure, but not like if there were no dogs. if there were no horses, other beasts of burden would be more plentiful. no pigs? more cows and chickens. no cows? more pigs. but no dogs? no hunting dogs or guards for camps at night in the early days of humans. we would have take MUCH MUCH longer to reach this point of development. not to mention missing the preadatory element of wolves and foxes, large cats would be FAR more plentiful. and good luck training those. it can be done. if you get them as a baby. but even then they can kill you on accident.
ok now you can offer a counterpoint
i suggest taking a long hard look in the mirror and finding where all this cynicism stems from that you cant enjoy what clearly hundreds of other people see as heartwarming. its clear you arnt stupid you know WHY we like it hence why your comment was so inflammatory, i dont think you really wanted to see the dog dead so much as you wanted to watch the site rain down what they think is hurtful or convincing arguments which dont mean anything to you since you were goading them. i cant see that mentality being healthy but hey, im just some dude on the internet.
More psycho analysis. Thanks doctor. Maybe it's cynical, but I hate how easily people are emotionally manipulated. And I hate that people use it to get thumbs on a COMEDY site. I come here to laugh not feel bad.
Honestly the way this site has been going the past years the whole point is to be emotionally manipulated. I always feel a range of emotions on this site. Happy, sad, pissed, disgusted. The point of content sites like this is to emotionally manipulate you. If you choose to do it "back" that's why you get negative thumbs. I honestly thought the post made me feel happy not sad. People like to hear stories where all looked bleak, but decent people stayed tough and made things right again. I don't want to change your opinion, but unless you truly get enjoyment out if riling people up, maybe just press the next button? I dunno, it is the internet though. People sometimes forget that.
No, I just really don't get the point of being purposefully cynical, but as I said. To each his own. It's just an internet site. If you feel the need to express yourself in this way, and it makes you feel better then that's just confusing to me. I'm trying to see the point. We'll obviously all forget this comment soon enough, just your cynicism is oddly triggered (ha) by something that should be happy.
like i said im just some guy, and im just being honest. i mean you're a big enough guy not to red thumb me over something petty and i respect that, im not trying to be a dick i just honestly want to know what it really is you get out of all this hate. i mean i get that alot of people are just jumping on the oh you were never loved as a child or some other ******** but i dont claim to be a psych, nor do i want to try and change you, i just want to understand you really, im just a very curious guy
Well, that's cool I can respect that. What I said is the truth. I like coming here to laugh and I view this as emotionally manipulative. Pure and simple.
My reaction is to emotionally manipulate in reverse. After riding the roller coaster if feels, Seeing something so shocking immediately afterwards puts a bad taste in your mouth. It disillusions you. The story doesn't get a happy ending. It might even make you think, and it might even make you thumb differently, which would make my ******* day.
Being stickied just makes it that much sweeter. I'm not usually an attention whore, but I am LOVING this. People so desperate to hurt me back, rationalize my attitude and put me in a box so they don't have,to think about it.
i tend to keep my opinions to myself here because i just dont want to deal with the backlash but you're right the people on this site are VERY easy to manipulate. look at biebergotswag, sebrig or w/e his name is, uchihalover, levvy, fedoralover. and now the otherside mudkipz, joshlol. its a little harder to make people happy compared to made but most of us just follow along. so to anyone else reading ready to blast the whole convo with red thumbs, you LET yourself be manipulated. maybe think for yourself next time. there's a saying great minds discuss ideas, normal minds discuss events, small minds discuss people.
have a nice day.
I don't think the content sucked at all. I enjoyed it, it made me happy, and that is my opinion. Your opinion is clearly unpopular. Don't say dumb **** like it's a fact, it makes you sound pretentious and arrogant.
Although I don't agree entirely with the bullet statement, that dog could have been put down. Do you know how many healthy dogs are killed a month to free up more space for new strays/rescues? A lot. If it were my choice I would have put him out of his misery too, and used those funds to help more dogs.
Don't get me wrong, its great to see this dog get healthy and find a home. Maybe his recovry was privatly funded, I don't know.
Just wanted to let you know you're not a piece of **** for having this opinion.
(meanwhile you're getting hate 3000 times more offensive than your comment. gg internet)
personally, idc about thumbs, so I say it anyways, much like yourself, but I tend not to lately, since it doesn't even make the common user think twice about it
Seems you're the brain dead one for implying I thumbed anything and for implying that anyone that thumbed did it cause "muh bandwagon", as if no one can think his original comment is insanely dickish
So why did you say; "I'm getting thumbed down, everyone else must be super dumb."?
You where acknowledging that he where speaking about the majority off the users and then proceeds to defend them,
and now you are speaking only for yourself?
what?
What are you even talking about? How am I only speaking for myself? You're siding with him in saying that anyone that thumbed him down did so "without giving it a second though". My original comment was quoting him
By rephrasing what he said in such a way that it seems like you are speaking for the majority. But then again when i commented you stepped down from your high horse and spoke only for yourself.
In what way was I speaking for anyone, let alone a majority? I simply rephrased what he said in an exaggerated tone. I spoke only for myself when you insinuated that I thumbed anyone down. And even in that same comment I wasn't even speaking for myself, seeing how I said "...any for implying that anyone..."
I will take my leave, seems like we are getting nowhere. It's hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it's damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.
I attribute it to the hivemind mentality, I think given the raw data, more than half of those who thumbed down your post would choose your way if faced with the situation, but they see red, they click red
Not necessarily, but when these people can clearly afford and want to care for it, implying it would have been better to shoot it somehow is not only edgy, it's blatantly retarded. Why kill something that can clearly be rehabilitated, you don't put something down because it's a challenge or expensive to heal, you put something down when it has no escape from its fate, and you want to end the misery instead of prolong it. Does the dog look miserable in the end of this comp? No. I'm not some faggot from the EPA or whatever that vegan militia is called, I have personally put animals down on my families farm. It's not something one does because it is simply cheaper or more efficient. You do it out of respect of the animal, to end its pain when their is no other alternative.
So your final answer is no?
We don't know how much the dog had to suffer and how the recovery was for it so i believe we got no right to judge what would be the right call.
I am just wondering why people get so emotional when it comes to putting down diseased animals.
Yeah well, cancer patients have to suffer through Chemo therapy, but the ones who survive are sure ******* grateful they didn't get a bullet in the head from their family because it was a cheaper option.
If my family would be better off i wouldn't mind, a lot of countries got extreme fee's for treatment that can put you into a huge depth you wont be able to pay off.
It all depends on the situation and sometimes the least appealing option is the best one.
I got cancer myself at a very young age, luckily i live in Norway with free health care so i don't have to worry
What happened to funnyjunk, it used to be good.
Come on, with this low level of content what do you expect from me.
Also how do you even know me I didn't post for like a year.
I wouldn't even waste a bullet on you, it'd be cheaper to just bury you as you are now, saves me the cost of the bullet and it's a little bit faster than shooting you and then burying you.
I hate this resent trend of self loathing. It's like white guilt, but more extreme. Somehow it's been ingrained in us that humans are awful for what they've done. **** that man, humans are ******* awesome. No other species would think twice before nuking the entire planet if it suited them. Humans are literally the nicest species on the planet. Most animals only care about themselves or their pack and wouldn't hesitate to kill a rival. We are the only species known to have empathy for others. We are so generous with our affections we assign traits of life to inanimate objects just to have even more things to love. We have more love and affection than we know what to do with.
In one eleven word stroke, with your original comment, you successfully outed all the heretic scum that would be willing to choose anything over human life.
But you did not stop there.
You defended yourself, you defended humanity, and you stood up for us almost alone. Solitary and forsaken, you held your ground against nearly 1000 comments bashing you, bashing humanity, and wishing for your death. Against this opposition, still you persevere. Earning yourself nothing but more hate.
You are a shining beacon of hope, in an otherwise desolate and barren string of self-deprecating and Humanity-deprecating comments.
The Emperor's light is with you today, brother. The light of humanity is with you. May you stand by his side at the end of all things, and look out over the wondrous creations mankind has wrought with the assistance of those as faithful as you.
Blessed are those who walk in the Emperor's light. The Emperor protects.
Anon because I am somewhat of a coward. I agree with you. It is weird that people can loathe their own race, but the second an animal is mentioned they unite and **** . I don't remember the name of the guy, but there was a comedian making fun of human for exactly that trait by asking the audience if they think babies are cute, getting some "Naaws" as an answer. Swiftly after that he asked if they thought kittens were cute and suddenly the whole audience cheered. he continued commenting that humans are weird for liking the offspring of another species better than their own
actually its 100% a certified fact that dogs utilize empathy with almost identical brain patterns as humans, proven by fMRI study. anthropologist contribute this unique characteristic about dogs as a trait that has traditionally brought humans and dogs together with evidence going back to before any written or spoken language was known.
its possible the human species wouldnt be here today if it were not for this unique partnership. there are some theories that during the worst part of the ice age the human population on earth shrank bellow 2000 people. think about that. its well documented that hominids used hunting dogs during period and if it werent for the unique advantage they afford we might not be here today and your ancestors would have starved and froze to death.
That simply isn't true, and it's easily provable on an objective basis.
You make the following assertions:
1. No other species would think twice before nuking the entire planet if it suited them.
2. Humans are literally the nicest species on the planet.
3. Most animals only care about themselves or their pack and wouldn't hesitate to kill a rival.
4. We are the only species known to have empathy for others.
5. We are so generous with our affections we assign traits of life to inanimate objects just to have even more things to love.
6. We have more love and affection than we know what to do with.
#1 is completely unknowable.
#2 you have forgotten to mention we can also be the most cruel. Humanity as a whole is more capable in every aspect. If we cannot do it with our bodies we can build something that can exceed every organic capability. This includes kindness and horror. For every mother teresa, there is a hitler. For everyone who gives everything to others, there is a stalin, or a Pol Pot, or some towel head being waterboarded. You say we are the nicest, I say we are also the meanest. Few if any animals will ever kill for sport, for the enjoyment. The ones who do adopted that practice from us, cats and dogs- the instinct to play with their food is bred into them by us.
3. Humans kill, maim, sabotage, or spite rivals on a consistent basis. A rival, by definition, is a competitor or adversary. They benefit from being rid of them. The laws of survival of the fittest mean minimizing competitors or adversary, and if you think humanity is immune to that- you're ignorant.
4. The meaning is debatable, do you mean other organisms or other species? Regardless, species rarely form relations with other species unless it's of a predator prey relationship. However, you need simply look into the life of Koko the signing gorilla to discover that one species can COMPLETELY adore another. There are also numerous examples of mothers taking in the young of other species, including ones that would normally be dinner. Empathy is nothing more than a chemical in the brain, animals do not lack it, and they certainly use it.
5. Personification is what you just described. Koko the gorilla has used it before to explain things. Not only that- that is it's purpose. We use personification to describe things. Not to create more things to love. That form of empathy towards the inanimate is ALSO a conditioned response- if an item evokes a good response repeatedly, we become attached to it to continue receiving the good response. Animals do it too. Dogs will often bond with specific toys and items. This is well documented.
6. And yet we ignore incredible tragedy and horror simply because it's convenient to. Your computer was produced in a foreign country with what equates to slave labor, and you're yelling about how we're the best thing ever.
7. Quit being such an edgelord ******* and use the slab of meat in your head.
woah i hate what this guy typed as much as the next person but holy **** petaphiles go somewhere else, last time i checked they were putting dogs like this one to sleep
Actually no. Any animal with an otherwise good health (i.e no injuries or sick) will be nursed back if possible, it is the better thing to do.
I agree to a degree with what he said as well, most humans are **** . In overall I've had more good meetings with animals, domesticated and wild alike than I have had with humans. I don't live in Australia, so that's a point for the animals alone though.
No, it doesn't matter on what they classify as sick. A veterinarian or a rescue group (note, not PETA or the asshats that want to euthanize and put animals down) will opt to nurture an animal back to health provided it is not heavily injured or dying from a sickness or an injury itself. The problem lies in finding a place for them, which is why most areas have connections to animal shelters and the like, people to help them find good homes etc.
i was talking about peta
i know some dogs are actually better put to sleep
its just the animals>huans that enrages me
the guy can ******* go kill himself and tell someone to feed a hyena with his corpse if he believes that so much
It would also be a nice gesture to the animal. Letting an animal live through that pain it obviously had is worse than killing it. That is the real cruel thing to do. Working at a hospital I hear daily the shrieks of cancer patients whose morphine has stopped working where a higher dose would kill them. I tend to them and they keep begging me to let them die and it breaks my heart every time. This was a long story, but to make it short, sometimes death is the gentle solution
i have seen animals with more humanity then most humans have so i'll say the phrase they're just animals is stupid, we're all animals, hell crows and ravens seem to even be smarter then some humans and with how many of us there are on this planet i'd say a dog has more value right now.
hell no, i have seen both sides of humanity, i actually go out a lot and deal with **** , humans really are nothing but animals themselves.
you know the world is ****** when animals can show more compassion then most humans.
Well, people aren't animals. I don't necessarily disagree with you though. There's too many people, and too many dogs. Euthanize the extra dogs and take care of the extra humans. Prioritize.
Or just don't post it online to boost your social credit like an attention whore. This place is supposed to be funny. This content simply isn't.
I didn't mean it in a scientific way, but cool strawman you're building there.
Obviously humans are in the animal kingdom, but you're a fool if you genuinely believe that we aren't more advanced than the rest. People that put animal's lives over human lives disgust me, because you're literally just going on how cute you think it is. So really anyone who tries THIS hard to help an animal is really selfish is a roundabout sort of way.
But forget that, that's all ******** . Obviously helping any animal is an act of kindness, right? So his motivations are irrelevant, he's doing something positive in the world. Then why the **** did he have to share these photos? Was he incapable of keeping his good deed to himself? ******** . Ulterior motives. The animal is nothing to him but a tool through which he can gain social credit.
As far as people misusing the internet, fine, you can post unfunny **** . And then I can post mean comments in response. And then hypocrites like you will defend him but chastise me.
I'm just razzing you anon. Really, being an anon is fun. No one can follow you and hold a grudge or ban or block you. Speak your mind anon, happy posting.
There's more than that, that's just the most egregious example. Did you actually read his post? Or were you just that blinded by your emotions? Do you need a minute?
Here is literally everything he said after "unless you're one of those stupid religious people"
"you do know we evolved from animals right? Fish > Mammals > etc...
Also: Holy **** , somebody using the website for an unintended purpose!? Better go tell Admin bro, he'll be furious."
The only part of that sentence that relates to the religious claim is "you do know we evolved from animals right? Fish > Mammals > etc..." which is half a sentence.
You are literally just saying words and hoping they make sense.
Bro, I totally get what you are saying. The people on here are "That poor dog, someone should castrate the son of a bitch that did that." All while happily munching on a bacon cheeseburger. To me, the value in an animal is the benefit it provides to humans. Dogs are nothing more than a domesticated tool. To a lot of the naive people, a dog's life has more value than a human life...that's exponentially scarier to me than the idea of putting down an animal who is suffering. Someone poured tons of resources into saving one dog while countless healthy dogs are euthanized in overpopulated **** boxes. I get it...but you aren't going to get through to any of the special snowflakes that reside on this site. Later.
But why take a life when you can save one? They can't use the same resources on the unadopted animals that they did on this one, unless they're gonna pay people to adopt I dont agree with euthanizing healthy animals because they can't find a home, but i can't find any other way around it all . I get the fear that some people think a dogs life is worth more than a humans life, if it came down to it most people would save the person, the ones that wouldn't are insane. If those farm animals used to make that bacon cheeseburger would have a life outside of food, I wouldn't eat it, but the truth is most of those animals wouldn't have been born if we didn't eat them, they're bred to be food. Dogs aren't bred to be food, they have lives and purposes besides food.
"Dogs are nothing more than a domesticated tool"
Yeah, no. Dogs are living things that are just dumber than us.
Animals aren't tools, if you really believe that, go try and abuse a bear. Abusing a dog is the same as abusing a child, the only people who do it are people who want to feel strong, so they hurt weaker things, or things that love them too much to hurt them back.
TL;DR: You can abuse a dog after you try and abuse a wild bear.
Simple, blow off its legs then continue to torture it. You ask as if doing so is impossible.
We're the apex predator on this planet, there is nothing we can't do.
While animal cruelty is ******* wrong, I do see the points the "unpopular opinion" is throwing out. You're too busy meme arrowing to see it though.
Dogs life > Human Life.
That is not how it should work.
Human Life ≥ Dog Life
Also, bears have been known to survive several shotgun blows with ease. It's a big reason most people don't hunt them, even with a gun, you're looking at about a 50/50 chance to win unless you're SUPER careful.
Careful with the 2 cents bro. ..no one on this site can accept any perspective but their own. But I agree. Human life is exponentially more precious than a dog's, or any animal for that matter.
Meh, if people wish to be ignorant then they can toss my two cents down the gutter. As long as I get them out I'm fine. How you treat it is on you.
Part of an argument is having an open mind and trying to see the others point whilst defending your own, if you're not willing to do that, then you're not having an argument.
>Go fist fight a bear completely naked with no equipment then.
Look at this guy, now hes adding more rules because I bested his logic. Naw, I'd rather shoot it cause humans evolve from intelligence, not from strength. Everyone know that.
Except you, of course.
Good day mr.
[Insert witty comment here that I wont bother responding or reading]
>Claims there's nothing we can't do
>"B-b-but you can't add RULES to what I have to do!"
You're a ******* idiot. There are BILLIONS of things we cannot do.
"humans evolve from intelligence, not from strength. Everyone know that."
Which is why we cannot beat most animals in a weight lifting contest, yet another thing we CANNOT DO.
When it comes down to it, humans are nearly the worst in every aspect EXCEPT intelligence. We're basically the result of Minmaxing your character.
"[Insert witty comment here that I wont bother responding or reading] "
Translation: "LALALA, I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
let it be stated humans are very good at running long distances without becoming fatigued. that's how humans used to hunt animals several million years ago. kept running and eventually our prey would tire
Dogs were literally domesticated to provide humans with protection. That's using an animal as a tool. Like a plow horse or a milk cow. I can't help it people are blind to the fact that they eat one animal and love another. ..do you realize how hypocritical that is. No qualms about shooting a ******* pig so you can eat him (which pigs have shown higher levels of intelligence than dogs)...it's ridiculous. Arguing with people on this site has gotten way worse than tumblr's sjw brigade.
"That's using an animal as a tool"
And do you beat the **** out of your tools, as well as break them for no reason? No, that'd be ******* stupid.
"I can't help it people are blind to the fact that they eat one animal and love another. ..do you realize how hypocritical that is."
Are you really this ******* dumb? Let me spell this out for you, ******* .
The reason for anger here is not the TYPE of animal. If this were pictures of a pet pig, people would be just as pissed.
You don't seem to get WHY people are pissed. People are pissed for one simple reason. Whoever bought this animal, bought it as a PET, not food, and neglected it. If the person had bought this dog and intended to eat it, whatever, cool. But you don't buy something just to be a dickhead to it.
"No qualms about shooting a ******* pig so you can eat him"
EXACTLY, YOU ******* RETARD. THEY'RE GOING TO EAT THE PIG, AND THEY'RE JUST KILLING IT QUICK. THEY AREN'T SLOWLY TORTURING IT, AND THEN PLANNING TO JUST BURY IT OUT BACK.
Impact? Impact on what? You? If not, then you're literally just ignoring facts.
Get this through your head dumbass, people are pissed because A LIVING CREATURE is being ABUSED rather than just killed, and on top of that, no one is even planning to eat it.
Oh hey look the guy is still yelling the things into the Internet where they have no impact on anyone. You feel so strongly about helping? Get your silly ass to a rescue and help out some animals. Or type some stupid **** in ALL CAPS because, you know, that's how you make a difference. Peace angry dude.
Yeah you're getting it. Explaining it better than me too.
Essentially what I'm trying to say is that I know humans can't be 100% efficient and rational all the time, but there are better ways to achieve the goal of helping animals than this.
For every dog that's treated and pampered, how many other dogs are suffering still? Maybe instead of providing exceptional care to one dog, provide basic care to several. Maybe think of a way to prevent instead of treat the problem. Maybe **** dogs and adopt a kid. Don't pretend you're an altruistic saint when your motivations are ultimately shortsighted and selfish.
While I get your point, you are really **** at explaining things. Like really **** . First you say we should just euthanize and kill dogs and that theyre worthless, and then you say we should save all the dogs we can like the saint you are. If veterinarians are able to save a dog without using a lot of surgery and tons of money, such as removing a tumor, they're going to try to save the animal. You're acting like they didn't just give it its necessary shots, feed it, and take care of it. And maybe the guy who posted this just wanted to show the progression of this dog recovering. Do you think every person on the damn planet is just looking for approval by people on the internet? Hell you're level 338 so i doubt you don't try to get these ****** internet points.
I think all life has value (most anyway). If I saw a dog or a person that was in bad shape I'd help them out. What I don't get is how people on the internet show more concern for a dog than they do for another human being. They say it like they're proud of it too. Bunch of ******* hypocrites, I agree with you on that.
I'd honestly prioritize a human life over a dog life of course it depends on whether or not it's a terrible person , but saying a dog which can be saved might as well be shot is just cruel.
I probably would have put him down also. Maybe not with a bullet because euthanized seems like a much gentler way to go. Blown to bits seems so... sudden. I couldn't find the actual pic so bite me.
lol ******** dude. i knew you were gonna get more thumbs. you deserve a medal for the amount of salt you generated. like HOLY **** ,
you are the bait master.
honestly the dog may still be in severe pain even after having recovered from extreme muscle atrophy. almost all cases of extreme muscle atrophy in humans result in extensive nerve damage leading to chronic pain.
its a tough pill to swallow...but a bullet might actually have been more humane
my mom would be able to understand why its better to keep her alive and in pain and ultimately its her choice. the dog doesnt understand pain, thinks its doing something wrong and doesnt understand the concept of choice.
it still wants to keep living though
it understands the concept of survival
its in the ******* dna of all living things to want to keep living, in fact only humans understand the concept of suicide
if i killed your mother in her sleep by your logic it would be as positive as killing the dog
yea if youre talking the logic of a psychopath who can only disseminate information at the surface level
empathy for animals means understand the limitations of their intelligence. there is no argument here, if the dog is in pain it is confused and doesnt understand why. you'll never be able to train the dog to not to do things like associate random objects, people or sounds with the source of their pain. its the most confusing, painful and horrible existence I can imagine
dogs dont understand pain...they do know the difference between right and wrong though
if you really want to have compassion for dogs you have to realize that when they are in pain they think theyre doing something wrong. can you imagine a dog that is in pain its entire life and just lives a confused painful existence
You poor fools are so desperate to build a straw man.
In reality I love animals, especially dogs. I've adopted several mutts in my life, and love every single one of them. I just don't make a big deal out of it online like a ******* faggot.
we arent making a big deal out of it, its these peoples JOBS to take in injured animals, nurse them back to health and then give them to a loving home, THEIR JOB. like they get ******* payed money for it, you are correct it would have been cheaper, but again these people get paid money to do this and pay taxes. One of my dogs is a rescue pup, he was beaten severely malnourished and near death when the police found her, the owner was a huge druggie. I am grateful for people who do these types of things for sick dogs because without them i wouldn't have one of my most beloved companions. If you see a sick abandoned child you dont just put a bullet in its head and say "that was cheaper than medical treatment" no you ******* call 911 (or animal control in this instance) and report it. you can stick up for yourself all you want i see all of your comments below, trying to defend yourself and bash on other people when in reality. You are just a **** human being who thinks that weak beings who have no control over the actions of those who wronged it deserve death because its cheaper. this dog didn't ask for it, an abandoned child didn't ask for it. but YOU are asking to get hate posting **** like that. i mean seriously how many comps of cute animals or webms of people saving animals on the internet are there? do you just do this because you like people thinking you are a piece of **** , or have you just accepted the fact that you are a piece of **** and you embrace it. Either or **** you.
I ignored most everything you said since you're just insulting. Try taking a breather, calming down and trying again. Anyways. If it's their job, fine. Is it their job go waste time taking and posting pictures?
But is that his job?Your whole point is that it's us job. Is taking pictures of this dog's horrific treatment then documenting then sharing then part of his job? Or did he do it of his own accord?
If it's just to spread the word to find him a home, why do the adopters need to see pics of his awful past? Would a family that adopts him JUST because they've been emotionally manipulated really be better than a family that just wants a pet?
it raises awareness of how terribly some dogs are treated and there a people like me who actually like taking in abused dogs, its a challenge to get them to love humans again and when they do its very rewarding. Next.
Awareness, I was waiting for that word. It's the last fallback for the truly desperate. So many ad campaigns portray shocking things under the guise of "awareness". Charities have made thousands in efforts to spread "awareness". People use it all the time to explain their attention-seeking behavior, and this is no difference. Do you really have so little faith in other people that you genuinely don't believe they're aware that the world isn't perfect? Awareness. ******** . Awareness is a useless buzzword. If he was truly attempting to call people to action he would provide data. Statistics that say "hey, this is a problem that is THIS common. Now here's how you can help.". Instead he provides nothing. So from the outside perspective, you could infer that thus level of abuse is a one-off, and doesn't need to be fixed because he already took care of it. This isn't a call to action. It's a cry for attention.
how do you know he provided no data? this is just a wemb in funnyjunk? how do you know this wasnt posted on a vet website with information about the dog. **** man, have you see the videos about dogs like this? they literally explain everything "here is X starving and cold under this trash can, they show how they get them out of the situation, talk about what kind of illness the dog has, the weight of the dog, they show the whole process. are you oblivious to the truth or do you just bend over and **** onto the keyboard?
I don't know that, but neither do you. Your argument hinges on data that you can't produce. My claim is backed up by the above content, what is yours backed by? Maybes, possiblies, and he said she said. Step it up.
"Next", as you would say.
No, you are not making a big deal over helping them, but you are making a big deal over putting it out of its misery without a chance of recovering. You are simply on the other side of the fence.
Wow talk about an epic fail. I don't think I have ever seen so many downvotes in my life. You're almost at the 2000 mark. Wow you must have trained for years to have reached that level of asshole.
>>#395, nah, he's okay. I dont get why everyone's saying "WOW HE'S A CUNT 4EVER NOW"
this whole thing is going to blow over tomorrow and everyone's gonna forget about it
You have a good point, and way too many people are having emotional reactions in this thread rather than logical ones, but animal shelters regularly do this kind of thing, it's why they exist after all, and the pictures aren't necessarily all about social credit. I've seen a few of these things around my town from the animal shelter in hopes of attracting volunteers, and I've noticed using their success stories to bring in more help is a common tactic for charities.
People need to chill, putting down animals is a common practice, but sometimes it feels good to do something nice like this and it's not always about making people think more highly of you
You and the entire user base could set up a network of fake accounts and thumb me down for months and it still wouldn't mean anything. Your impotent gesture means nothing.
Go suck on a peepee popsicle you blessing heart faggot.
But remember she'll be dead soon old age, contracting cancer from you, suicide at the thought of her son , and you'll have to get your tittylovin somewhere else.
But great, she thinks you're cool. Good going, ace.
well i decided to undertake a task to have the largest jojo reaction folder of anyone on the site. dont ask me why cuz i dont know but im sitting pretty at 306 right now
God damn, man. Keep up the good work, then. /a/ is usually a ******* gold mine (as you can see from most of my files using the 4chan image names), I had totally lost track of how many I'd gotten. I was amazed to find I had over 700 just now.
It'll consume you.
You'll want more. And you STILL won't have a proper reaction.
i got all these from fj bro. i have never been to 4chan, and i never will. i enjoy being able to say i havnt too much to delve myself plus anything really good will end up here. also editing videos of the abridged, or the show itself provides ENDLESS reactions, observe. i can get you the mp4 of just the whats that if you want
i have no idea what you're talking about i waded through over 100 versions of that damn meme to pick out ones that went trash. even im a little sick of dio right now
Reminds me of my girls. Got the black one (Raven) after she was rescued from a kill shelter. Eyes swollen almost completely shut, belly bloated from worms, but now she's an insane ball of energy and excitement. The boxer (Rosie) was pretty malnourished and nobody wanted her because she had puppies that stretches out her nipples, but we fell in love with her, and look at her now!
Some woman in an apartment 19 stories high just tied him up on the balcony and left him there. When he got that thin she put him in a garbage bag and threw him 19 stories down the garbage chute. He was only noticed because the workers heard him weakly crying and moving in the bag.
She didn't really serve jail time because she was pregnant and had no prior convictions. Although personally I wonder how many animals she has done that to and gotten away with it.
