  • Iv seen more then one house that burned down due to flooding.

    The house next to my uncle’s when I was a kid did that. The entire first flood was flood something like 7 or 8 feet of water, but due to the water it caused the gas lines to fuck up which started a fire that climbed up the inside of the walls and lit the second floor on fire.

    So the first floor was underwater, the inside of the walls and the second floor was on fire.

    And the basement became a new pool!

    The worse part was a bunch of the trees lit up and managed to catch the house behind it on fire as well.

    Sometimes shit really does just suck.

    Americans and I say this as an American. Are first and foremost retarded beyond all releasing when it comes to understanding that empty empathy and apologies are worse then saying nothing at all.

    As much as it’s the stereotype to say Canadians say sorry all the time, in reality it’s Americans.

    Americans will apologize for ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. Because we are taught that sorry fixes everything. Words are cheap and actions are hard.

    And if you tell them sorry won’t cut it, then it’s straight to being pissed and blaming everyone else. Not fixing it, not admitting empty platitudes are insulting. No no, it’s your fault for not expecting the sorry with no action to back it up.

    It’s the most annoying fucking thing.

    Americans need to learn to shut up, sit down, and realize if our leadership fucks up. We all fuck up. That’s the entire point of democracy. We are in this together for better or worse. If we don’t like it then we need to shut the fuck up and go actually do something about it. Words are cheap.




  • Coyotes like racoons and a load of other random north American animals actually make weirdly solid pets. Just not your normal suburban pet tho.

    If you like out in the sticks and have a bunch of other dogs coyotes end up being fine. They integrate ok into existing packs.

    Coyotes have evidence of being kept like dogs for over a 1000 years all over the Americas. Not nearly as wide spread as dogs. But not all that uncommon either.

    Hell the few times in recent times someone’s tried to domesticate coyotes they just turn into dogs basically. How we ended up with coydogs, and then if you don’t try to keep the coyote in them they sorta just breed out after a few generations of modern dogs in the gene pool.

    Honestly the bigger problem is a coyote is smart, coydogs and their various breeds are kinda all stupid as fuck. Yet to see a hybrid breed that retains any level of intelligence.

    So you end up with something as stubborn and willful as a husky and as stupid as a rock. Not a great combo…
