What the H is up with people talking to dogs? not small phrases like commands or praise – but full on TALKING.
speaking entire sentences on what they should and shouldnt do and then later ones recalling earlier “conversations”. asking them questions and waiting awkwardly long stretches as if theyre gonna answer. then making up or assuming the answers. wtf people.
they DONT KNOW ENGLISH. this is creepin me the hell out.
Animals understand lots of things ABOUT people – single words and phrases, learned patterns, body language and other non-verbal ques. they just dont know grammar and sentence structure. just because a dog knows the word “walk” or even the phrase “wanna go for a WALK?” doesnt mean its gonna understand “maybe later we’ll go run around in the back yard. you have to stay on the leash though, okay?…mmkkkkeayyy?…” – the eff IS that shiz??
If you’re Tom Hanks on an island and you don’t know how to convey a story arc without dialogue but have the predicament of having only one character for several key scenes in a row, THEN I understand talking to something that won’t talk back and inventing a personality for it as if it understands you. but these are people who are in contact with other people… so… wtf?
Animals don’t know English. Has the internetz taught you NOTHING?
A friend responded to this by saying he’s going to write a blog about this subject because “dogs are actually smarter than humans”, so I told him to go for it.
I’m interested in learning all the advancements in science, math and engineering made by dogs throughout history.
Many people falsely attribute the discovery of the double helix to Francis Crick for example, but few people realize that it was actually a co-discovery between him and his labradoodle, Wilkins, whose previous works included a brilliant manifesto about eating his own poop and finally cracking the code to the precise number of full circle rotations required before laying down on the carpet.
