53. ITA. Even cats. An old boyfriend many years

Fri May 31, 2013, 04:25 PM

May 2013

ago freaked out when I had my cat neutered. He yelled something like, "You cut off his balls!!!" really loud. Then asked me why I did the same to my female cat, claiming I should let her have the experience of having a litter.
His reaction was so freakish that I was glad to turn down an offer for another date.

Back up your data, Google-master, please? flvegan Jun 2013 #64

Is Wikipedia ok? ozone_man Jun 2013 #79

Not if it cites admittedly flawed data by the CDC or that dipshit Merritt Clifton. flvegan Jun 2013 #80

How is it flawed? ozone_man Jun 2013 #81

Which doesn't necessarily mean pit bulls are less dangerous michigandem58 May 2013 #30

Which doesn't necessarily mean pit bulls are more dangerous, either. baldguy May 2013 #46

No. Yorkies and Pomeranians just aren't as popular with drug dealers, dog fighters, and other tclambert May 2013 #51
