Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I would have read that as discussing the good driving habits of show dogs.

Or I'd take it as a weird double entendre. Like tailgating is code for dog shoving his nose in the butt of another dog. So, "Show dogs don't tailgate."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This could just be a statement about the driving habits of the show dogs -- they don't tailgate. Which I for one applaud.

Yeah, this is definitely the one I'd pick -- Show dogs don't tailgate, and neither should you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm the simplistic sort. They are saying that show dogs do not tailgate.

I'm aided in this interpretation by the surety that they do not, in fact, tailgate.

Hey! That guy in last week's OC is played by the guy from Veronica Mars.

Damn, Nutty, a girl tries to catch up here eating lunch ends up snarfing lentil soup through her sinuses. Ow!

I dunno, I thought some of the dogs on Puppy Bowl III were definitely tailgaiting.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, I have never seen a show dog tailgating, either behind the wheel or in the ring. So I have no opposition to the sticker.

And sumi, I think the lunge line thing is how the Biscuit's trainer does it. But we just haven't summoned up the cash or done it ourselves. We really, really need to, though. For safety.

I dunno, that exchange made me want you a little bit. Mmm, brains. That's hot.

Assuming that none of the dogs were controlling vehicles nor having a party from the rear of one (I don't watch the Puppy Bowl--I'm just guessing), then they were probably just sticking their noses in anuses. Which deserves its own word.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Which deserves its own word.
Oh, I am certain there is already a word for it. And I am happy not knowing that word.

Or I was.

Now I am fucking curious and I hate when that happens because there are words I don't want to know.
