Stupid People

Do you ever feel like stupidity is a contagious disease? For example, a person who replies to the entire company and kisses the ass of an executive who is leaving with phrases like 'walk the talk.' Why didn't she just include her resume?

Or my neighbors, who while providing food, water, a towel to sleep in and even a freaking scratching post for a stray cat who has wandered into our common hallway neglected to provide a litter box. Never mind that the cat is now relieving itself in the hallway outside my front door and the entire common area smells of cat urine.

For some reason they think this is an OK situation. Frankly, the cat was abandoned. All the 'no-kill' shelters are full (I called 6) so at this point either adopt the cat yourself, or it's bye-bye Mr. Bigglesworth.

And before you sick the ASPCA on me, yes, I would rather the cat lived. But if it's gonna live in the hall and use my door way as a bathroom then it's gotta go.

My gripe here is really with the stupid neighbors and the cat's former owner, not the cat. It's never the animal's fault. It's the stupid people who can't commit to properly caring for or training it.

Now I don't want to get off on a rant here but how is it the same people that coddle this cat and insist on it's right to piss on my floor the same ones chomping down on a sausage, wearing alligator shoes, an Italian leather belt, and a floor length mink with a rabbit's foot in the pocket while feeding their dog horsemeat?
