You keep using strawman incorrectly in this thread.

First off, that response was not refuting your main point, but a secondary point. (I'm really not sure what your main point was as you changed it from profiling pitbull owners to profiling dog owners after I pointed out the flaw in your logic)

I was simply disputing your statement that dog owners would have also have a gun because gun owners own multiple guns. That's not sound logic.

Your logic is jumping around and you don't have a cohesive point.

Would you like to rephrase your main point so we can add straw back to the man?

> Ok then my argument still holds true, and you're just upset that I called out pitbulls specifically.

You stereotyped pitbull owners specifically, not dog owners. Then you backed off as the logic fell apart. You're just spouting off assumptions (which you've admitted are assumptions) without anything to back it up.

> if it did, gun owners would just stop at buying one gun because they already have one.

Many gun owners do only have one gun for protection. Again, another stereotype assumption.

Some people aren't comfortable with guns, so they get a dog for protection.

Now that you've done "gun owners" and pitbull owners would you like to stereotype anyone else?

Or do you just want to stop at the one that is acceptable to?

The idea of the dog protecting the family is common amongst all large dog owners, it's not really specific to pitbull owners.

Most pitbull owners are just normal dog owners. I think you have this sort of caricature of this junk yard scene that you see in movies/tv.

Your assumptions makes leaps of logic, you could just as easily say a family got a large dog instead of getting a gun for protection.

People do have guard dogs, yes. But guard dogs aren't always pitbulls and pitbulls aren't always used as guard dogs.

I'd say most pitbull owners aren't using them as guard dogs. That would be a stereotype. As is stereotyping the actions of pitbull owners.

That's a great way to get shot.

This comment exposes your pre-conceived notions and is pretty offensive.

I would like you to expand on your supposed pitbull ownership correlation as well.

You'd be very surprised at the diverse demographics of gun owners.

Serum is an FPS RPG game focusing on survival and PvP. Players compete against each other gathering Serum and Relics.

The planet Cronus contains the most valuable and energy dense fuel humanity has ever discovered, Serum. The controlling federation has prohibited unauthorized mining. With the recent discovery of inter-dimensional travel those restrictions have become impossible to enforce. Individuals and factions have begun jumping between universes to simultaneously reap what remains of Cronus.

You are a reaper of Cronus. You command a ship along with a regenerative droid that you control from orbit. The droid is deployed from your ship onto Cronus. The mission is to extract as much Serum from the species of Cronus.

You are not alone. Others have again started reaping Cronus. Although split across multiple universes, chances are you will come in contact with another reaper. Be wary, the Serum you collect can be extracted from your droid. Trust noone.

The technology that powers your droid is also fueled by Serum. To prolong your harvest make sure to keep enough Serum in reserves to power your droid. If your droid dies or runs out of Serum a new one will be created and dropped back onto Cronus.

Thank you for this, this is the best thing ever.

Yes! When you catch him off guard or wake him, he'll coo like that. It's similar to his whimper when approaching.

He's sweetest when he wakes up, so it turns into more of a coo than whimper since he's purring a bit.

Seems to be his hello/greeting call.

For real. Off the top of my head there's, MeerrrOOOOOwww MerrrOOOOwww, the loudest one, huge inflection in the middle. Generally while strolling through the house, back and forth. I think that's the "I'm bored" one. But he'll also do it if I stay up. If someone is out of bed past curfew he'll do it. I have to close the bedroom door or he'll wake the wife.

If you say summon him he'll probably ignore you but if he's interested he'll whimper errrderrruuderr softly while walking toward you.

Then there's, MOWLLLLL MOWLLLLL, slowly howling, that sometimes means he's sick and gunna throw up. Usually right on both the rug and the carpet.

Then there's, MAHHH MAHHH, just two in quick succession, which literally sounds like mama. That's the I want something one, generally he wants catnip from the outside plant.

Just heard him go MOOOOW MUUUROWLLL MUUUROWLLL howling, but he's just pacing back and forth from the window and now wimpering at me. So I assume he's misses mama (the wife).

The funniest is and most unique is, BRRRRAHDAHDOP, which he yells before tearing full speed through the house or down the hallway for seemingly no reason. I think that's either "Look at me" or he's so excited he can't contain himself and it slips out naturally.

Side note: this was an interesting challenge creating and optimizing these onomatopoeias

You seem to be really offended by this statement, you even went to his profile to find something to attack him?

GP isn't trying to write a paper, he's stating an observation based on his experience with the animals he's had.

Feel free to dispute the above statements with research or anecdotes, but solely insulting people and getting angry just reflects poorly on you.

I can only assume you are one of those stupid cats seeing how you handled yourself in this thread :)

I believe those go hand in hand. The smarter the animal usually the more personality they have.

I just meant general intelligence over all varies among animals. I'm not stating facts, I'm stating my observations.

Personally, it's pretty easy over time to tell the difference between apathy and intelligence when you spend a lot of time observing interactions.

"People like you" should check your tone btw.

This. Not limited to cats either. I've noticed the same in dogs and even some cows.

Same rules apply to humans as well. Interaction early on develops personality and intelligence varies genetically by a wide margin.

You fantasize about a scene where you have a cool comeback when you overhear someone railing against a state you live in?

Then you think about it again and comment on a public forum about it. Yeah that's totally not caring at all.
