Blah blah blah

[Alternate title: Are you boring your dog?]

I know what you all are thinking: Blah blah blah. Another J-TWO-O blog post. Blah blah blah.

But bear with me. This is a good one.

Remember the Gary Larson Far Side comic strip "What we say to dogs. What they hear"? (In case you don't, here you go.)

Well, now, thanks to YouTube poster HappenNow02, we have proof that "blah, blah, blah" is exactly what dogs* hear -- and say to their masters**.



Once again, life imitates art.

Call me old fashioned but...

I believe in the Golden Rule (the "do unto others..." version, as opposed to the one that says "he who has the most gold makes the rules").

I believe it is better to give than to receive (at least most of the time).

I believe that if you don't have something nice to say, you shouldn't say anything (unless you are Conan O'Brien or Ricky Gervais).

I believe you should write a thank-you note (or at least a thank-you email) when someone gives you a gift or does something especially nice for you.

I believe the words I'm sorry should actually mean something, and not be followed by a preposition or accompanied by a press release.

I believe that people should get married first, then have children.

I believe that children should be seen and not heard when in public places that cater mainly to adults, like restaurants and shops.

I believe "low-fat brownie" is an oxymoron (and just moronic).

I believe a woman's bikini should have a bottom and a top. [H/T Larissa]
