The Lunacy of Beings

Sorry for the non-existence, call it burnt out, call me a burn out, call it whatever you want but don't call me daughter. Consider my creative juice tank full again and I will attempt to rattle off any and all ideas that come through my cranium. But will most likely fail...

If you think this picture looks cool, I hate you.


Today's verbal evisceration goes out the people who cloth their animals. Hands down, it is my number one most hated trend. What genius started this fad and when will it phase itself out of society? Not soon enough.

It bothers me so much that I can barely craft a simple sentence without wanting to scream at the top of my lungs. When your dog wakes up in the morning do you think it wonders what its going to wear? No fucking way, they aren't people, and for thousands of years animals made it just fine without clothes so I fail to see why you still think doggie boots look cute, or practical for that matter.

Isn't that what it should be all about, practicality? Dog clothes are not practical, they are a serious misallocation of resources. (By the way blogger, why does your spell check officially blow, misallocation is indeed a word and spelled properly yet all I get is red squiggles, get on that) Actual excerpt from a dog clothing website:

Name withheld outfits your babies with the finest in doggie fashion wear clothing. Whether your dog needs lounge wear or formal wear, if you're looking for small dog clothes, or big dog clothes, we have the perfect apparel to complete your best friends wardrobe. Our clothing lines consist of the top designers in the canine fashion world. Our extensive list of suppliers includes many who specialize in tiny dog clothes but also high end fashion for big dogs too.

There is a fucking canine fashion world? This must be a sign of the coming apocalypse. Where does this world exist? I only ask so I know where the fuck not to go. Just look it the pictures, not a single dog looks happy in clothes. They are the looks of despair, depression, of whoring out pageantry that couldn't be more unnecessary.



I would love to get my hands on the throats of the "top designers in the canine fashion world" and shake the ever loving shit out of them. Swindling the public into purchasing clothes for animals and actually making a living out of it. I don't know who to be more upset with, the swill merchants (thanks Almost Famous) that pump this garbage out or the sect of society that buys it. I guess there is a thing as too much money.

Dogs like to play fetch, get their stomachs rubbed and eat your shoes. I'm pretty sure squeezing into a tube top is not on that list. Dogs would (and some do) rather eat their own excrement that put on a pair of jeans. So please next time you see a dog in a ball gown kick the owner in the shins.

PS While searching for pictures of dogs with clothes I encountered dog bikinis. I am now so enraged that I will not be putting up said pictures because every time I see them I OD on anger.
