    This is why I almost exclusively listen to podcasts that are scripted, like casefile, freakonomics, this American life, radio lab, wait wait don’t tell me, etc.

    Before this, all too often I would find myself listening to people aimlessly chatting about what they had for breakfast and such, and I realized those that scripted their episodes made for a tremendously better listening experience.








  • Dude you’re arguing opposite your position. The internal consistency of your argument has broken down.

    You say above you’re against a rule like “no one else can have orange stuff because I don’t like orange stuff” while at the same time arguing “everyone else has to like pets because I like pets.” Can’t you see how that’s hypocritical?

    And to be clear, you completely misrepresent my position in the first place. I’m not for requiring anyone to do anything. I’m against requiring landlords to allow pets. If they want to allow pets, great 👍.

    But if a property owner wants to advertise their community as quieter (no barking), cleaner, with less poop and pee on the grass, and less dander in the air, then why would you prohibit renters from seeking a nicer place like that for them to live?


  • Pets don’t need to be “part of the human experience” any more than drugs do. They’re optional and some people choose to have them and some don’t. Some people don’t like pets and don’t want to be forced to live around others’ pets.

    Have you even thought for a second that some people might CHOOSE housing based on the fact that a community doesn’t allow pets? And by “mandating all landlords allow pets” you are eliminating housing options for these people? God you people are like religious zealots and think everyone should be forced to believe in the same things you do.

    Friggin crazy fascists. “You’re going to like my pitbull (oh he’s harmless and you’re dog-racist if you believe otherwise) and now I want to force you to raise your kids around my untrained shit factory and step in his crap and listen to him bark constantly or you’re a horrible person.”

    Holy hell I hate you with the passion of a thousand suns.
