    I can't understand the efforts that able bodied people go to in order to park one spot closer to the entrance, especially at any type of store. No matter how close you park, you're walking the entire time you're in the store anyway. What difference does it make?

    Actually, I guess I do understand, but it just seems dumb.

    I went to Home Depot on 120 and Sheridan today, and there were about 3 to 4 people with dogs.

    During the self checkout, the dog was jumping and putting both paws on my left arms. I was so busy that I didn't even care, and just proceed the checkout.

    2 other kids including my kid was saying ahhhhh the dog is jumping on me!

    This kinda made another delay on few other self checkout.

    Assuming people at a self checkout (including ppl in line) makes $60/hr, the cost of having a dog in the store illegally (or against store policy) was about $12 lost in time.

    $1/min x 12 people= $12

    If dog excrement was found, it would be exponentially worse.

    Just wait till a fake service dog is shot for acting like that.

    Some people are terrified of dogs, and one jumping on them could make them think they are being attacked by a vicious dog. Bam.

    There's a downloadable form that you need a doctor to write down a few details and sign. Take the form to where you would get your vehicle registration and they can either issue plates or 2 placards. The placards are free. It's almost too easy. The competition around here for handicap parking spaces can be nuts.

    Is this a bad thing? They're doing us all a favor by not spawning more little liberals narcissists.

    I can think of several flights I've been on where I'd much rather have had Fluffy in the row ahead of me than "sweet little Aiden."

    Ahead is better than behind.

    While I can sort of empathize as I have young grandson's, I had a little f*cker behind me kicking my seat on my last flight. At least the parent finally recognized it and made him stop.
