Funny as fuck . <| sep |> The cops shouldn ' t be getting called every third time you go out . Especially if you ' re gone for just 10 minutes . It ' s your friend we ' re talking about here , not me . Yeah , usually the you is collective , but in this case , your whole diatribe is centered on that person ' s anecdotes and your singular experience , so when you come up with you it really looks like some kind of projection . I actually do have a dog , and when I do stuff with the dog , it is about the dog at that point , not me , so don ' t go including me in that gross projection . So there are a few points to consider . Maybe it ' s not 1015 minutes that your friend goes and leaves the dog . Maybe the windows are up and it is a hot enough day to be concerned . Your singular innocent experience does not mean that all of your friend ' s experiences have gone just the same . Odds are , if the cops are getting called over her constantly there is some reason , especially if it happens all over town . The only other possibility is that it is a regular thing and the same people are calling the cops . Say , maybe she ' s a complete bitch and the place she goes to to get coffee always calls the cops . but say , she ' s not and she ' s going to random places all over . That is a very high rate of people calling the cops , even in population very aware of animals . The windows are probably all the way up and the thing is in the sun more often than not if they ' re getting called all that often . It ' s not like friends never tell little white lies to make themselves sound a smidge better . But regardless . If you think about it , response time of police is usually not that fast . Time for human to be away , time for people to call cops , travel time of said cops , cops contemplate what they should do . Now , take into account this post , it can be that bad . Been 15 minutes ? That is a legitimate time window for concern . As I said in a real post , the greenhouse effect is a real thing , it ' s not some myth . It can be literally freezing outside and 80 f inside of a vehicle in the middle of the day . Now , picture a nice sunny day that ' s 6080 f anyways . yeah , it can get hot FAST in a car , and heat can be deadly in a short amount of time . Also , the point was , if you ' re doing it FOR the dogyour specific claim , do it for the DOG , not for YOU . Don ' t make it an errand running trip where you do things for yourself and misjudge time because you ' re absorbed in tasks for YOUeg we ' ve all done hundreds of things and thought that was only like 15 minutes when in reality it was 40 , so don ' t shit yourself there , any adult with an IQ over 90 has noticed this . If you want to take the dog out for a drive , take the dog out for a drive , and then go home , then go do the crap that you have to do where you ' re obviously not caring one shit about the dog . that doesn ' t sound very reasonable . Fuck off with that horse shit . If you love your dog and want to do X for it , do so . Don ' t try and make it sound like going to the bar for one beer , and having 3 or whatever else you ' re doing is somehow innocently just taking the dog for a drive . I use that specific story because it is sounds exactly like the type of rationalization an alcoholic would use . Oh , I do this and this for my dog , because my dog loves it . I absolute am not doing this for myself . even as you ' re gone from the vehicle and the dog for large swaths of time . At that point , it is most obviously not for the dog . But somehow , you totally missed that bit of logic .
