Description Is...is this a job for human rights activists or for PETA?

Okay, this is something that has bothered me for years, and in all sorts of medium.
So I'm furnishing my little Animal Crossing cottage, right? But I don't know if I'm comfortable with keeping a caged canary (which is a furniture item) in the window when my next-door neighbor is a talking, four-foot-tall robin.

It's the same thing in what was one of my favorite childrens's show, Arthur , too. He's got a little pet dog, but one of his best friends is also a dog. And it happens again with Goofy and Pluto of the Disney universe; both are dogs, but they live in different castes of domestic hierarchy. What is this?

And when you encounter this sort of thing at such a young age, it's...I don't know, it's just crippling.

Is it just me, or does that dog look like Pal? o.o
(I haven't played Animal Crossing yet... I'm trying to see if it's worth the limited cash I have. xD)

This has me looking at my dog differently... x3
(I wonder what he's thinking right now...)

When I first saw the title and the image I thought you were referring to the fact that in many TV shows and games where all characters are animals, rabbits marry dogs, and can have kittens and stuff as their children O.o

salty-sinsation [2008-07-15 13:05:12 +0000 UTC]

All I know is that Goofy used to be Mickey's dog but Walt Disney changed him into a character and thus, Pluto was born shortly after. Or something like that. I don't know why he would do that though.

I always thought it was funny how Amelia, the bird a few acres over from me in animal crossing, had her own canary in her house.

I wondered if it was a child of hers that she just couldn't keep still...?

The true question is whether someone has thought about this or not. For example, it never occurred to me that this would be something like the contradiction to end all contradictions, or even a contradiction at all.

I'm guessing this anomaly just doesn't affect everyone who has witnessed it, but for those who have, it possibly could be like slavery was never banned from the US.

wtf??????

ok think about this...if mankind was created by god...and its an accepable fact that god has no creator himself, then why is it such an atrocity to think there is no god, how come the human race couldve just popped out of nowhere, just like god? or maybe god is just a word for the ACT of creating, or maybe its a symbol for the actual existance of humans....
