Soap-Opera actor Nick Santino 47,commits suicide

[mydeathspace]

You evil evil son of a bitch..

I'd actually be very upset if I lied and the dude killed himself.

But at the same time, I'd explain my guilt away by saying there were other circumstances out of my control. haha

[mialynneb]

I don't want to be an asshole here, but why didn't he just find another apartment rather than kill his dog? That's just totally nonsensical.

Yeeeeah. I'm with you here. I love my animal farm and if someone was harassing me, I would put a boot in their ass and then find a new place to live. Put my dog down? Seriously? Out of your fucking minds! I feel worse for the damn dog than I do for this guy.

[wmdeeznuts]

That's the thing. Dog owners are just dumb. To him, he could justify saying that it would never hurt a fly, because it would never hurt HIM. To him it was never aggressive, even though it was aggressive towards others.

[sogs]

A lot of dog owners are smart and know their dog is aggressive towards others.

[wmdeeznuts]

We ain't talkin' about them....

What?!

Jesus Christ, this.

Okay, now you make no sense. Excuse yourself, please.

I mean, am I tripping??

[Ron_NYC]

Lil bit. Some dog owners are douchers. Some owners suck, and we're talkin bout them. Fucking people act like leashes aren't a law, but a suggestion. Ugh.

[wmdeeznuts]

My favorite is the people who have their dog on the leash. Then you walk by and obviously the dog is interested in this new person so he tries to come up to you. But the idiot holding the leash doesn't yank it back and say "NO!" Instead, they just kind of halfway let the dog continue to make its way toward you so that it can lick and stick it's wet nose on your legs. (Because we all want somebody else's dog spit on us don't we?!)

[bowieluva]

There are smart dog owners, dumb dog owners, and dog owners suffering from severe depression. He happened to be from the latter category. I can also say that people in NYC are fucking dicks in apartments. I used to get weekly letters from the insane woman downstairs from me documenting my nightly bathroom trips and saying as far as she was concerned, there was no reason for anyone to walk around our apartment later than 10 pm.

[wmdeeznuts]

Depends on if you have lead feet or not, and if your capable of walking to your bathroom, or if you feel the need to run at full speed and pound your feet the whole time. I hear my next door neighbors failing at this all the time, but fortunately I live NEXT to them, not below them.

[bowieluva]

Uh, if you don't like hearing neighbors, apartment life is not for you. Or get the top floor.

[sogs]

My dogs can smell a jerk and avoid them unless approached where I am 100% aware even the most docile dog can become aggressive in some cases. Which is why I say keep dogs closely supervised around kids and anyone in general. Which was a whole different discussion.

Many people are jerks with dogs. This guy sounds like one. It was the generalization that got my reply.

[bowieluva]

Also, I find that a lot of people define aggressive behavior in a pit bull as just 'seeing a pit bull'. I've never really seen an aggressive pit bull in NYC or L.A. I've seen some mean little dogs and German Shephards, and you couldn't pay me to approach a chow chow.

Most of them are in Brooklyn.
But they fight them over there and shit. Savages.The owners too.

Yes, most violent pit bulls have been abused and raised to be that way. They're bulky, large dogs but their inherent personalities are more along the lines of Golden Retrievers than a rottweiler.

The thing about big dogs is that just like anything, the nicest animal in the world can have a bad day and act out of character. But I get bitten more by my friend's horrible maltee-poo than anything else.

Meh. I just try to stay clear of all of them. Even friend's dogs. Why risk it?

[g r ee n ey e s]

I only sic my pitty on people who look at her the wrong way anyways.

[bowieluva]

I just don't like large dogs because I don't like things jumping on me and making a huge fucking mess, and I am mildly allergic to dog dander, enough that it makes life slightly unpleasant for me. Smaller dogs with softer hair don't bother me, but that brittle short stuff? A fucking rash on da face.

I actually get that too with the american bulldog, for some reason pits don't give me the same reaction. Pits shed better though, maybe that has something to do with it. AB's basically leave a second coat anywhere they touch.

[wmdeeznuts]

Dogs only jump on people because their owners allow them to and train them to. If a dog is smacked in its face just a few times in a row, it'll never jump on people again.

Just like I'd go up to women and grab their boobs if no one ever smacked me and told me not to. Same thing.

[g r ee n ey e s]

Oh jesus.

Are you like, a Boddy that knows about lower case?

[g r ee n ey e s]

Could be an aqua pretending to be a dude.
