Maybe! Your hangups are still not my problem.

Good day.[/quote]

You make your parents proud. [/quote]

My parents also love dogs and would find you quite bizarre, pal[/quote]

I guess you learned to be inconsiderate from them.  Family does impact the type of person one becomes, of course.

I have to say, your attempts at being provocative are sub-par. There are plenty of things to feel defensive about; plenty of things you could get a person worked up about. Insulting my parents because [b]they and I think it's just fine to bring our dogs places where the dogs are allowed[/b] - it's just C- trolling at best, honestly. [/quote]

You don't seem to get that doing some things, even though they are "allowed", is inconsiderate; the fact that these things are "allowed" doesn't change that.

Here are some things that are "allowed":

I am "allowed" to let my toddler scream in a restaurant while I finish my meal because, well, he's a kid and he's feeling temperamental.

I am "allowed" to voice my political views any time: at a dinner party with people I don't know well, at a PTA meeting, in a car when I am carpooling your kids to ballet.

I am "allowed" to tell my kids that their teacher sucks and they shouldn't respect her.

I am "allowed" to tell someone that her new hair color makes her look drained and old.

I am "allowed' to take out my phone, crouch to a half-stand, and record my kid in a school play even though I obstruct your view.

I am "allowed" to recline my seat on a short-haul air flight in coach, even though it will make the person behind me uncomfortable.

And, I am "allowed" to take a dog to Home Depot.

But doing any of those things makes me an oblivious, selfish jerk.  Bleating that, "It's allowed!  It's OK because it's allowed!" doesn't make me less selfish and obnoxious for doing any of those things.[/quote]

THIS, 1000x THIS.[/quote]
