For crying out loud
May. 3rd, 2008 11:56 amI am sick to the back teeth of the neighbour's cat shitting in my garden. I know that's what cats do, and I know that my cat probably does it to someone else, but how many craps a day does a small moggie need? I thought at first that it was my direct neighbour's cat, but now I've seen it's the one from two doors along. Fucking figures - they don't give a shit about their kids, who just sit outside swearing, burning things and trying to break our greenhouse windows. To be honest, I don't actually blame them, as their other choice of entertainment seems to be listening to their whiney, child-man dad abusing their mum in yet another of their drink fuelled rows. Occasionally he breaks off that to threaten them with grievous bodily harm if they break my windows again.
I might just give them boomerangs with double sided sticky tape on so they put themselves out of their misery next time they break my glass.
So if they can't be arsed with their kids, why would they bother looking after their pet properly? Their cat meows pretty much 24/7 outside a locked back door. I mean, why even fucking bother to have a pet if you just lock it outside so it can crap all over everyone else's garden all the time.
And completely unrelated, why does all diet information tell you to cut out sugar in your hot drinks? It's only 16 calories a spoonful. If I have five hot drinks a day, which is going it even by my standards, then in a month I might lose a pound. If I didn't go completely mad at the sense of tiny pointless deprivation and eat six giant pizzas to make up for it.
New diet news - eat well, but moderately and healthily; exercise regularly and happily; learn to love yourself better.

Date: 2008-05-03 11:17 am (UTC)On a cat theme, I've found out why Thai is spraying...I caught one of their friends hot-footing it out of the kitchen window the other evening. Don't really know what I can do about...I leave the kitchen windows open so my cats can go and come as they please...I'd be loathed to have a litter tray back in the house so I can close the windows at night, and I can't install a cat flap :/

Hear, hear. I can't stand the ethos that encourages low fat, no sugar, blah, blah, blah. I've never bought a low-fat item in my life...ok, I did once just to see what it was like, but never did it again. Fat and sugar are just fine in moderation...most people (generally) eat far more at meal times than they actually need anyway...if they just ate less they wouldn't need to give up sugar or switch to low fat.
