It should definitely be illegal for any dog to be off its lead in public.  In a wood, in a field, in a park, on the high-street.  It doesn't matter, it should be law for them to on a fixed length lead if out in public.

I know the majority of people are mauled in a house or garden, but if there is so much as one more person that gets bitten/mauled whilst out in the street it is too much.  Have we not progressed enough as a race to keep dogs on a lead.

It will take a politicians son or daughter to get their face mauled off in a public park before anything is done.

Such law would never get passed for a couple if reasons.

A big proportion of the UK love dogs and lots of votes would be lost.
It is very silly.

I personally think we should ban cars. They kill more people than dogs through irresponsible ownership.

Yes but cars are very useful tool and don't generally hurt people who are having a peaceful wander through a park.

Dogs are not a useful tool.  They are thick, ugly and their breath smells.

And talk about ugly. Don't you own a Chrysler?

It's practical.  

Just like Jeff's m*n bag.

BOOM!!

other similar 'street' phrase likely to wind Tina up....

[Mind the windows Tino.]

Nonsense. How can you compare a girly handbag to a car that can transport me and my family.

[Lumbering_Jack]

Although I do genuinely think dogs are stupid and ugly.

They are stupid of course. People say 'aren't animals really clever'. Well, no. The run out in front of cars, try to eat live pigeons and don't know the 2 x table.

They are a similar level to Truss, or most Americans for that matter.

[seanmichaels]

What is the difference between a Chrysler and a hedgehog?

Because both are examples of sacrificing utility and practicality over pride.

One is slow, ugly and shouldn't be on the road.

The other one is an animal.

[ShahenshahG]

What is the difference between a Chrysler and a hedgehog?

The Hedgehog contains less pricks

Don't you f*cking start as well, Shah.

With a hedgehog the pricks are on the outside.

[Il Gialloblu]

What is the difference between a Chrysler and a hedgehog?

I would consider buying a hedgehog.

And you'd be less likely to get laughed out the pub when you tell your mates.....

Tino probably doesnt go to pubs - his first headbutt happened in the home - he doesnt want a second dose.

[Rowley]

Tina strikes me as a coffe shop kind of guy.

[TopHat24/7]

Yeh, Starbucks Charlie written all over him......

[Rowley]

He would not go to Starbucks as a protest over their tax affairs. Whilst Tina may be a southern softy now he is a southern softy with ethics.

[TopHat24/7]

He's a precious metals hedge funder.

He rapes the world's poorest countries of the value of their natural resources, over-speculating and short-selling the already needy into greater poverty.

Ethics my arris.


Or maybe he just goes to Costa.

Yes but cars are very useful tool and don't generally hurt people who are having a peaceful wander through a park.

Nor do dogs.

Yes they do.

Generally, no, they don't.

Made my week that. Jeff pwned Tina. RFOL

I was in a park yesterday and I counted 20 dogs. 18 of them bit someone.

So, Captain Sensible, generally, yes they do.

So Jeff has 'owned' me by calling me a southern fairy?

The same Jeff who has a cat called Polly and sports a m*n-bag?

To be fair, you can't ever get quite enough pusseh and he needs something to distract attention from his mankini

What are you blathering on about now. I spend 90% of my time speaking to people in South Africa, America, China, Hong Kong, Russia, India and Germany. Hardly poor countries. It's you who hates the poor, not me.

I might not be doing this much longer anyway. Our boss asked us all, in light of tough times, to come up with some strategic views on the future of precious metals. I did a slightly tongue in cheek PowerPoint presentation on asteroid mining. I don't think he found it that funny.

I don't believe that for a second, unless a) you slapped these 18 dogs, or b) it wasn't a park and actually you'd broken in to somewhere with guard dogs.

Dogs hurt people occasionally, not generally.

I think it is just Tina. Even his kids don't like him.

It's not actually getting much better. I think I should have stitches to be honest.

Thanks for your concern. You're the only person who has asked.

It would heal better if he kept his mouth shut but the only victory he has left is a phyrric one in not allowing his children to silence him. Pity him and admire him in equal measure. Had that happened to me I would have bought a chrysler and moved to hertfordshire to take advantage of the privacy on offer

[Mind the windows Tino.]

I could silence him by withdrawing all funding for his karate lessons if I wanted to.

I am in control here, Shah. Don't make the mistake of thinking I'm not.

[seanmichaels]

Is that supposed to make me feel better?

No, but there is going to be a new World War II film involving tanks, Brad Pitt and a lot of fighting.

Are you sure you want to do that? I mean before they get to the part about discipline? We might see you on the daily mail next year with a daily mail angry pose with black eyes and a split lip under the headline Domestic abuse followed by the value of your home.

[Galted]

The idiotic smiley just above the text box under the latest post really grinds my gears, I think it's the way it changes from a smirk to a giant sh1t-eating grin that gets to me. Sometimes I just stare at it for minutes on end and feel the hatred coursing through me.

i hate the one, it looks like he's leaning on his crossed arms and spreading his legs to offer his bumhole to the person behind

[Galted]

That is annoying.

 looks a bit like a willy if you look at it from the side.

Made me chuckle that whilst some sleepy Oxfordshire village was paying its respects on Remebrance Day, there were Nazi soldiers storming through fields with explosions going off left right and centre. I would have thought it'd have added to the authenticity of the day myself.

I'll never be able to look at that one the same way again!

I'm sure you can look at it the same way again - it probably won't be necessary for you to sneak around to the back - he looks like he'd welcome you back.

People who wear jumpers over a shirt at work, especially those round neck types which cover 99% of the tie. It screams middle aged so loudly that I'm starting to go deaf.

Nice to know there's a Geordie who tolerates shirt-wearing.

I wear jumpers over a shirt all the time.

But, they are v-necks from Next and I don't wear a tie. Is that acceptable or not?

Why would you care, LJ is a geordie, do you really want the validation of a bloke who believes wearing a coat in winter is an indictor of homosexuality.

I don't really care about his validation, just interested. I will still be wearing a jumper over a shirt tomorrow whatever he says.

Dark blue jumper over light blue shirt today. It works, trust me.

I wear a round-neck jumper over a shirt to work, unless it's forecast to be over 20 degrees and I have to iron a shirt (boo!). I don't wear a tie, though.

[Rowley]

I do find it slightly worrying you have already planned tomorrows wardrobe today.

I suppose that is acceptable, but it's not a great look.

Also hate those who wear a clearly visible white t-shirt underneath a shirt, or worse still, a white vest.
