In-joke #3422green2b(thursday): The Genocidal Attention Shown Towards Chronologically Challenged Canines.

Which is to say: Puppy Murdering.

I'll leave DxB to explain.

So, this is the story, about a man we shall keep nameless.

In his first year at college and visiting his new girlfriend a young man amuses her new Labrador puppy by throwing a tennis ball for the little scamp to chase. There's no-one in to talk to or he'd not be paying any attention to the blighter. He's a little afraid of dogs. He throws the ball in a repeated pattern. It bounces on the floor, onto the wall and back into his hand. The doggy jumps and leaps and cavorts all over the place. And then runs into the wrong place.

There's a quiet crack and the ball bounces off at an angle. The puppy flumps onto the ground. The young, handsome, man crouches to examine. He listens for breathing, but can hear nothing. In a move that he'll later look back on with embarassment he lifts the frong leg and looks for a pulse. The puppy is already getting cold.

The young, intelligent, man does not panic. He cannot use that as an excuse. He calmy picks the puppy up, examines it one last time and walks over to the puppy basket and pops it in. He arranges the ex-canine into a sleepy repose and then covers it with a blanket. He then moves off to watch T.V. and make it look like he's been busy by getting his study notes out and arranging them around the room as if he's been reading them.

His girlfriend arrives and they talk about mutual friends, do other stuff, and in the moring the young, generous to charities, man supports his grieving friend in the removal of her puppy.

A few weeks later they split and she, in anger, says "I never liked you anyway". He replies "Yeah? Well I killed your puppy" and walks away, slamming the door behind him.

And that's the story. Poor man made the mistake of mentioning it in a chat room and has never been able to forget it. We should pity him, and poor scorn on those that drag his shame after him. Do they not realise that the spectre of what he did always follows him, and that he hears the crunch each time he closes his eyes? Pity him, and scorn the mockers!

Can I just ask what happened to the person who used to sign off with the phrase -I've just wet myself-?  I guess this was a one man injoke but it doesnt happen any more

IIRC that was Stephen l'enfant Terrible with "I've wet my knickers."

Better set your phaser to stun.

Ohhhhh yeah!

I'd forgotten good old Steve! Is he still around? Perhaps operating under an alias?
