OT: "Normal everyday noise"

R D S · 2020-06-15T15:47:45+00:00

Just polling opinion....Because I personally am an intolerant, miserable buzzturd. [1]I was in the garden yesterday evening, 8pm ish, peace shattered by an incessantly barking dog. [2]Now I know from reading posts on dog forums and other social media that some folk think it is normal and OK for their dog to be barking its tits off and this should be tolerated by others.I've seen people complain about people complaining to them about their dog!So I posted on a local community Facebook group [3], to the effect of thanking whoever was responsible for making me rue summer.A response I got, presumably from the owner, was that people should tolerate normal everyday noise, and by the way her dog doesn't just bark in summer. [4]She might be right? I'm not King of the Universe. [5][1] But a largely quiet one.[2] Not uncommon.[3] I know, shamed, i've since deleted the thread.[4] She missed the point that it isn't such a problem in winter.[5] Which is a ####ing good job for her and many like her.

Well that is your prerogative, but the fact remains that the 'official' name in breeder circles is German Shepherd, not Alsation. And it changed.

Why is everyone writing Alsatian with an 'o'?

They can do what they like. I don't frequent such circles, or those of socialists and train spotters either.

But less stupid - conveys information of use to others (dogs, that is).

You forgot 'leaf-blower' man. Surely the worst.
