Walking the dogs
If it's impractical for you to have dogs contact your local rescue centre because they'll probably be crying out for volunteer walkers.

You can't be unhappy in the presence of a dog.

Many moons ago when my cat was but a kitten
he came wobbling into my room, clambered on the bed and vomited a sparrow up for me.

There's a gorgeous dog in the 24 hour offie near my friend's house.
Alsatian, sits by the wine panting and watching everyone. She's 2 years old, the fluffiest thing ever, and really friendly. I don't usually like dogs.

they don't do it in cardiff,
i was very unhappy to find out :(
although maybe they have started now?

it's too wet for dogs in cardiff

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:16, Reply)

the odd thing about cardiff
is when it is rainy or snowy everywhere else, it is sunny here,
but then when it is sunny everywhere else, we get rain.
i do not understand.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:17, Reply)

yeah, but in swansea
it's always rainy

I was at uni there and am familiar with the strange weather you describe
my favourite thing was walking up Cathays Terrace with the wind howling at your back, only for it to stop completely for 10 seconds and then blast you from completely the opposite direction.

i used to live in that part of cardiff
but students are cunts so i moved.

Google tells me
That your closest Dogs Trust centre is in Bridgend, where presumably the dogs have been abandoned by suicidal teenagers.

I'm sure there'll be a dog rescue centre in Cardiff and I'm sure that if you roll up responsibly and show willing they'll be happy to see you.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:19, Reply)

haha that was a good idea making a suicide joke about bridgend
to someone who almost certainly knows at least one of the people who killed themselves.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:32, Reply)

Much in the same way it was a good idea making a joke about terminal cancer
to a website where someone almost certainly knows someone who has suffered from that.

Don't try and take the moral high ground on B3ta you stupid cunt.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:43, Reply)

haha as if i know anyone who has killed themselves from bridgend,
cardiff is miles away from there.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:46, Reply)

and anyway, i did have cancer.

( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:46, Reply)

Shame it wasn't terminal really

(Bazongaloid, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:49, Reply)

that is a very off colour remark
considering some of us have had relatives with terminal cancer
:(
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:50, Reply)

I wasn't aware of you until someone on here mentioned you had told everyone you had terminal cancer
then that turned out to be a lie, and the next thing I saw was you getting all high and mighty because Cr3 banned baldmonkey from the QOTW. For someone who's been on b3ta for this long, you aren't terribly funny.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:53, Reply)

i'm going to take that as a personal insult
and cry into my shoes.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:54, Reply)

and anyway, i was having a jokey go at cr3 for NOT banning baldmonkey,
what is wrong with you?
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:55, Reply)

I appear not to be able to distinguish between you writing things with the completely opposite meaning
to the one you expect people reading them to take. It's very easy to get your strop on and then go "Oh no, I was just joking", but let's face it, you weren't. Plus I find the idea of pretending to have terminal cancer for a joke slightly distasteful even for b3ta.
(Bazongaloid, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 20:00, Reply)

so where was i joking and where was i not joking?
you're going to have to tell me because i obviously do not know.
and obviously the people i was saying these jokes to, who do know me, would not be able to know what i was joking about better than you, who have never even heard of me.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 20:02, Reply)

plus, every joke by anyone ever is offensive to someone.
it doesn't change a damn thing. the fact that you think that me joking about having cancer is too much for b3ta is completely irrelevant to me or anything.

*Yawn*
Tedious response to being called out for being a twat is tedious
(Bazongaloid, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 20:06, Reply)

listen,
i am the last person to deny that i am a twat. if anything i am the firmest of believers in that fact. i'm just trying to explain to you a thing that you don't seem to understand properly.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 20:07, Reply)

and rather than think of me as a twat
because you didn't understand a thing i said to people who did understand what i was saying,
maybe you could think of me as a twat for reasons that actually make me a twat.
i won't be thought of as a twat for false reasons, that just isnt on.

( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 20:24, Reply)

and anyway, i said i had cancer as a way of telling people i had a serious illness
without having to tell them what the actual life-threatening illness was that i had at the time.
but i don't even know why i would have to explain that to you, since you don't even know who i am and it all happened a year ago, a year before you'd even heard of me.

who's baldmonkey?
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:56, Reply)

it is a MORAL OUTRAGE
that the GREAT baldmonkey should be BANNED from ANYWHERE.
( Sir Sand GOBLIN ^popular page dis, Tue 9 Nov 2010, 19:58, Reply)

I think he should get cancer and commit suicide.
It's the only option left.

I don't think I do.

I know some from Port Talbot though. They could do with killing themselves quite frankly.

Sorry chief
I'd say "internet banter" but that's worn thin.

Accept that I haven't a clue who you are or what you're about. I made a tasteless comment that 999 times out of 1000 wouldn't wound anyone.

You've got my apologies, given in good grace, but they're for not knowing your background rather than the comment I made.

the main background you need to understand from this post
is that i am bored.

I don't do /talk, so maybe the confrontational style pulled me up in my tracks.

Don't do that to me again, eh? I'm a gentle soul, I don't like to open wounds and you had me worried.
