What is one of your Pet Peeves in life?

Another one of my Pet Peeves is people know better but don't do better.. Then again, maybe they don't know how. I know there were challenges in my life that I did not have a clue as to how to handle .. but today, I can say I handle things a lot better but I am still a work in progress.

Sure! When people know better, they do better.

What happened at that horse forum you were on Cody? Didn't they shut down your thread?

They didn't shut me down, I left. Way to many Millennials and I no longer have a horse. I told the Administrator I was going to leave and why, but all three really wanted me to stay...........but I didn't.

Yes, one thread I did was getting to wild and controversial. So it was shut down and I told the Administrator "thank you".

LOL. I had a co-worker who was fired. After the manager said, "Sorry, but I have to terminate your employment."
He replied, "I don't want to work here, any more. I quit."

Give it a rest, @win231. My diet is at least 98% vegan (occasional dairy and virtually zero meat) for both personal health and animal cruelty issues.

My deep distress over our barbaric treatment of factory farm animals and other livestock is reflected in my daily choices.

I have banner ads turned off for this site, so you may indeed be the only one seeing this.

I have the banner ads turned off also.
 
Ok, guys...no ads, but how does this site make any money to keep operating if we all would ban ads? Just asking as I used to know how things worked on the web. I assume Matrix isn't doing this for free, right?

Well, everyone, there is no local, state or federal law that states people have to like tattoos or rodeo or loud barking dogs. Now, is there? There is no law that people have to like swearing or smoking, right? Different people have different pet peeves!
As far as dogs barking, Keesha, how would you feel if you were woke up, from a nice sound sleep, at 6AM due to dogs barking? Especially on a Saturday or Sunday morning, when you wanted to sleep in?
One thing for sure, Keesha, "lap dogs", like Shih Tzu's don't bark loud like large dogs do.

Note here on small dogs...our neighbor (who has 4 acres and was a previous subdivision dweller)...just guessing here...lol, anyway, they let their little "rescue yorkie" - which was a mean little barking "bite your ankle" kind of dog" out at 3 am and he didn't come back. Now we live where there are coyotes, red fox, huge barn owls and bobcats.

Word to the wise. Don't let your little doggie out at night unless you have a very small fenced in space for he or she to "do their business in" and come right back to the house. Even in the close in subdivisions you've got "friendly coyotes" running around.

I had a large Yellow Lab. I'm in the city but we do get wandering mountain lions & coyotes. I never let him out alone; he always had an armed escort. I'd tell friends, "Go ahead & laugh; my dog's only going to have ONE cause of death - old age."
 
We have 100 acres of protected forest behind us where we see and hear the coyotes . We have a Yorkie but she won’t wander that far back nor do the coyotes wander on our property but a friend of mine who lives in Oklahoma lost a small dog that way.

I live in a subdivision near open land and neighbors have said that coyotes routinely wander our streets at night, one even said they can jump our 5ft+ block yard walls.
