Snowbird, I'm so sorry about the accident with your dog.  Those little furballs are such special things in our lives.

Ok, I've given others a chance to respond, so I will continue my rants...
#1. When I go to tear the toilet paper off at work and it splits in half right down the middle. I need to wipe my butt, not floss it !!!
#2. People who don't control their kids out in public. Like I want your kid crawling under the changing room door when I'm trying on speedos. (kidding)
#3. Watching my football team play and right when you think they can't lose the game, they find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
#4. Kids that wear pants that hang real low. Ok maybe you think it's cool, but I really don't want to see your buttcrack or your Superman boxers...
#5. People that work the kiosks in the mall and right as you walk by ask, "Can I ask you a question?". I usually respond with, "You just did, have a nice day" and keep going. They really are annoying...
#6. I have my head shaved and I use to go get it cut. When I sat down, the barber would ask, "How do you want that?". It's pretty obvious isn't it ?? I sure as heck didn't come in here for extensions !!!
#7. Why is it, that your family can ask you , "Why don't you ever call?" but look at you crazy when you tell them their phone also has the ability to dial out ??
#8. How difficult of a concept is it to figure out that if you just watched me load the dishwasher that you can do the same instead of putting dishes in the sink ??
My thoughts for the day...

Thanks, he's fine. Moving a little slower but not really even limping. Bet he learns to stop at the curb.
And yes, they are very special. Alot of people think I'm a little crazy but he's VERY spoiled, we get over in bed to make room and he gets his own order at fast food places. I drive with one window down, summer and winter. SPOILED!

I agree about the low hanging pants, makes me want to go jerk them up for them.

Oh, I'm glad to hear he'll be ok and he's not "spoiled"~just "loved" like they should be. 
Mark, you are SO funny. But you have some very valid pet peeves.

It drives me nuts when people talk on their cell phones when they are at a cash register and paying for groceries, gas, clothes, etc. Either have the person on the other line wait until the items are paid for, have them call the person back later, or wait and make the call after checking out. Talking on the cell phone when paying for stuff is an inconsiderate gesture towards the associate and arrogant in my honest opinion.
South Dakotans and those in states who issue two license plates per vehicle who do not have a license plate in the front of their car annoys me. The motorist is given two license plates, one for the front of the car in the license plate holder and one for the back license plate holder. If the front does not have a license plate holder, get one.
My pet peeve is negative political ads, often used to scare the crap out of voters. The Republican ones annoy me more and the recent negative ads are stupid.

1. People who do not spay or neuter their pets.
2. People who do not recycle.
3. The "overuse" and "inappropriate" use of quotation marks.
4. Lawn ornaments of all kinds.

Oh I experienced another one this morning and thought I'd share...
When you are using your nose hair trimmer and instead of trimming the hair like it's suppose to do, it YANKS it !!! Holy crap, you would have thought I just got down watching some chick flick with my wife or something, the way tears just stream down your face !!!
