The Japanese train their dogs better than stupid idiot fat car slave americans do with their own kids.

It's not uncommon to hear people say that animals must have souls because clearly their dog, cat, horse or whatever has a distinct personality, emotions they can understand and relate to and so on. But if that's the case where do you draw the line? At cattle? Reptiles? Fish? Insects and other invertebrates? Amoebas?

Plant bushes at the edge of your land and his, that will block out the sun. Or if you're far enough south, throw some kudzu seeds into his shit heap, that'll turn dog shit into a better smelling problem quickly.

Some reddit edgelord will say “kill teh dog xddd im such a channer amirite fellow terrorists” but the real solution here is to modify a drone to ignite and drop homemade molotovs on his roof at 3am. make sure you turn off all its lights, fit it with IR cameras and dont launch or retrieve it from your property or the same spot.

Mice are an infestation. They need to be eradicated. They are not unproblematic just because you think they look "cute" in pictures. Few things are more disgusting than a mouse scuttling through the rooms of your house or hearing them inside the walls.
Mice are the genuine cockroaches among mammals.
>not rats?
Watch less cartoons. Rats infest sewers and warehouses. The ones infesting ordinary houses are mice, and thus I have a stronger opinion on mice.

Basically, roundhouse kick mice.

Mice don’t look cute, rats do (at least not the bigger ones) also, if you got a mice problem in your walls, place your phone by the vents and play the audio of their natural predators. They’d leave and after awhile, never come back.

I agree they suck. I’d love to try to tame some kind of predator and just start a ratting company killing mice and rats

The crows in my neighborhood have stopped coming by my house for snacks. Hate to say it but its got me bummed out. We had a pretty good thing going with 5 of them that would regularly swing by and caww to be given peanuts.

i dont understand why they are so dangerous? just choke it. poke its eyes etc

Yeah because bearspray works better than bringing 5 other people and spears.
>>
>>4796307
I mean technically I guess. But you'd need a very fast reaction time, strength, and nerves of steel to actually be able to pull something like that off. Most predators back off if you stare at them and look big, and for those that don't you can play dead. I don't think fighting back against a grizzly bear will ever be a smart play unless you're literally about to die.

my thoughts too
even if it doesn’t die in time it’ll definitely still die
