The amount of time and energy these animals consume is staggering.
And the cost...holy crap, that would empty his savings within a year or two.

Why would you wish that on a puppy? I thought you liked dogs and you know they have to go outside before noon not at all like raccoons that just don't care.

If we don't behave ourselves, the unemployed bum will "tag" us.


Then we'll be sorry.

Probably a good idea.

40-50 years ago we could get away with not reporting some on-the-books contract income but today, being computerized, the IRS knows every dollar that goes out from company X and who received it.

This happened to me last year, I got a company check for $6,500 from selling some of my machinery. No way was I gonna try not reporting that.

Few more:

If he gets on your hands, it spreads everywhere
Just when you think it's over, you're running back to the toilet
There's no arguing or winning
Never know when it will show up or leave
Usually last only from 24/ 48 hrs.
Everyone has a great diarrhea story

Per our arrangement, unless you're tired of this method and you want me to go back to the other method of calling out the trolls, your call.

You guys have an arrangement? Some predetermined code of conduct expectations?

@Anjdog2003

Are you seeing the pattern now, you see how the day begins with the trolls taking jabs? Funny, you never call them out by saying it's getting really old, just the person responding.
