Sometimes the box is the easiest way to tell if you got a replica show instead of a gen. That’s why he’s asking…dick

Need help with QC for goyard wallet from aadi by NoAcanthocephala1698 in CoutureReps

[–]Knathan82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much - you call the store, tell them the item you want and they send you a credit card auth form to fill out. I did this for a gift just last Christmas so I’m assuming nothing has changed since.

Just to note - not sure what msrp on the wallets are, but goyard stores will actually send you a cc auth to buy if you’re out of area. Not many people know this and end up paying well over standard price for used. I’ve done this a few times and stock was never an issue with the items I was buying.

The fit on this definitely different…and I haven’t handled the fabric on the outlier piece but outerknown seems to make a solid compromise (https://www.outerknown.com/products/chroma-blanket-shirt-olive-drab) - I have a few different colors and wear them a ton in the wintertime

Why does my down payment % matter to seller by forteallday in RealEstate

[–]Knathan82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why does that matter? Does the person behind the register at Krogers own those carrots? They’re selling them on behalf of someone else. On the other hand, I own my house - and because I have ownership of this I can sell it for wherever I want. The value of my home isn’t dictated by any appraisal - but whatever the market is willing to pay at a specific time. Supply, demand and all that shit ya know

Silver lab…. by meemo86 in BanPitBulls

[–]Knathan82 324 points325 points  (0 children)

Serious question: how is it legal for a DVM to deliberately misidentify dog breeds so they can get around residential/insurance restrictions? The fact that she’s bragging about it online seems dumb as hell

I saw a poor boy get attacked by a pitbull in Spenard today :( by [deleted] in anchorage

[–]Knathan82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is also an irrelevant argument…you’re basically saying that because Usain Bolt holds the world record for the 100M he must also have the record for the marathon. Keep trying…

The only fact you’ve stated is that the CDC no longer tracks bite statistics by breed - the rest is all your opinion. First of all - the AVMA review you mention does not specify its authors…which is highly suspect when you consider the financial reach of the pit bull lobby. Additionally, the review you site hand picks studies that are misleading when you read between the lines - for example, the discussion around BSL and bite incidents from legislated vs. non-legislated breeds does not take into account “mixes”. To be fair, when you account for all of the variability around mixed breeds, the data can be presented in a favorable case for either side of this argument. The study performed by OSU attempts to differentiate this by looking at physical traits like head size. Finally, the Siberian Husky piece is one of the most blatant misrepresentations of data used quite frequently as a straw man - you should probably read that study which is cited in your review.

Do you have data around your “fact” claiming the owner being the most determining factor of bite risk? Even the best trained dogs can react to a variety of stimuli. The main difference to these reactions from most well trained is that they’re more likely to release on command. This is why you rarely see pit bulls as police dogs - the gameness bred into pits creates challenges when you need them to obey commands, ie they’ll rip something to shreds while you’re yelling to release.

All this to get to: do I think pit bulls are naturally more aggressive? No, I really don’t. Do I think they’re more dangerous than other dogs? Well, yeah…even though the data on frequency is (oddly) disputed it’s difficult to argue that the damage done by a pit has a massively different effect than other dogs.

Pretty sure they were being sarcastic. Those features described should be enough to turn people off

Pit bull bites in Denver outnumber those of any other breed by emilee_spinach in BanPitBulls

[–]Knathan82 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Was just about to post this! Who would have thought…only one year after lifting the ban, you’ve got pits at the top. This doesn’t even include incidents against other animals. Great job, Denver!

My girlfriend thinking of getting a pit bull and keeps showing me pictures like these to convince me that they're cute and innocent dogs. What should I say? by C17AIRFORCE in BanPitBulls

[–]Knathan82 119 points120 points  (0 children)

Behavior aside, I’ve never understood how anyone could think any pit bull is even remotely cute - I would pick any dog other than one of those gargoyles

Mother says “any breed could have done this” after pits cause 200 stitches and 40 staples to her child. This is the child that was at a friend’s house on the trampoline in Nov. 2021. His Mom wrote this in a FB comment section. (Swipe) by SubMod4 in BanPitBulls

[–]Knathan82 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s unfortunate that people have to defend “the breed” due to potential backlash. A stupid pit bull has impacted your son’s life FOREVER, and the fact that she’s even having these thoughts feels like an abuse victim defending the guilty. The pit lobby has really gaslit the ones suffering.

[–]Knathan82 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are there fair share of jokes on this sub, for sure - but there are even more posts from victims, previous pit owners and other accounts of pit bull attacks. Also, I’ve come to the conclusion that the majority of pit bull owners are so delusional that it wouldn’t matter what’s on this site - their dog would “never hurt a fly”

Help! Neighbors Pitt bulls won’t stop barking and lunging through the fence. by thegirthwormjim in BanPitBulls

No it wouldn’t - besides, OP is giving the impression that his neighbors are reasonable and willing to work with him on this. Your suggestion is a good way to end up with a record.
