Man,! WTF
about t week ago i put this auction and it got to Regresty here is a link
well the auction was at 18000 plus counter hits and 164 watchers it went up to 26 bucks geeeeeze, the whole idea of it was really just a comedy monaloge, but its funny some of the best comedy is spun in real time dealing with issues, i think its the particular issues tha set people off, when the whole auction was up i got some funny questions nobody wanted to take me to the task of saving hoss,
here are some of the questions or funny coments on regresty i thought were good
"There's a video too. After the first couple of seconds I skipped ahead to 3 mins. It goes from him fully clothed petting Hoss, to what looks like naked at the table in his cowboy hat with a can of dog food."
"Someone needs to take that poor dog away from him! No animal deserves a human that stupid."
Holy crap. That's real. The story and the pictures of the dog and taking the cheap crappy worthless frisbee away from him... That's not satire. Not you making fun of the listing. That's... wow. That's messed up.
Hey, if he can get 16 bucks for a banged up frisbee imagine what I could get for a chewed up shoe and a half eaten tampon my dog burped up yesterday.
Yeah. I noticed that too. Hoss is seriously underweight.
Things like this piss me off because
a) this guy has no knowledge of dog behavior. He seriously thinks that he can teach a dog how to appreciate things if you take the favorite thing away? Buddy, if you're dog's a chewer, he's gonna chew. It could be the cheap-ass frisbee or your cell phone. It's generally considered better for dogs to chew on their own stuff rather than yours.
b) this guy doesn't know how to take care of a dog. If the ribs are protruding that much, there's a problem. I'm willing to cut him some slack if he recently found the dog like that, but Hoss seriously needs some food.
Eh, sorry to rant, but holy hell... Idiots owning dogs is just a hot button for me. It's irritating that his behavior is being rewarded ($17.49 when I last checked).
Look at his other offerings on EBay. Tramp art that screams "I did waaaaay too much Peyote in Art class!".
C'mon, no way he means the whole story about the dog, nor does he intend you think he does. It's not dog abuse, either!
It's just a cutesy way to beg.
It's fucking impressive amateur viral marketing is what it is.
He is possibly the craziest Texan on the planet, and THAT is fucking saying something. I'm so going to his next exhibit.
God damn it. I'm from Texas, and I hate it when dumbasses like this and Rick Perry make us look bad. We're mostly wonderful, normal people! I am a delight to be around! I would even share the remainder of my box of wine with any of you.
Actually, I'm of the (out of my ever-lovin') mind that this guy is showing a bit of Texas' redeeming qualities. This is comedy gold!
Anyone thinking that this is all serious (though I'm assuming he actually will send the frisbee if purchased) needs to go back on their meds
Having "growed up" in the hard pan desert of Northern Nevada myself, I can tell you all, with absolute certainty, this guy isn't an artist. That's just what happens out there in the sun and sand when you drink or smoke to much and are bored of your godsdamned ass because the only other humans you ever talk to are in the same state of lonely fugue. "Outsider art" is what happens when "city folk" see brilliance in the tweetley toodles of some one who is actually just really damn drunk on 99% moonshine made in a shed and flavored with them special mushrooms they picked last year.
Does anybody else think that video was supposed to be posted to eHarmony instead of eBay? Holy Christ on a cracker (or maybe a taco shell), when he started talking about his ex-girlfriend and how he thought maybe he should get someone to stab her so he could save her and then she could appreciate him more, I just fell in love with the big hairy sensitive ape!
THERE'S A VIDEO EMBEDDED IN THE LISTING! MUST WATCH!
IT'S THE STORY OF WHITE-HALF-NAKED-CRACKER AND HOSS.
I'm about 7 minutes into it, and he's planning his next girlfriend using Muchausen by Proxy. Now he's talking about bean tacos with Pedigree Canned Dogfood.
This is the greatest eBay listing I've ever seen! "Slightly used" haha!
he... can't be serious. can he?
Also, this kind of 'art' is one of the things that makes people think we Texans are crazier than we are. It really chaps my ass.
You know, if an adult does that to another adult (threatens to harm something treasured if the other person does not obey/relent/get back in the kitchen and make a goddamn sandwich), it's actually legally considered emotional abuse. Funny.
seriously? indignation and pity for the dog? he gets pedigree tacos and can bark out the car window. He doesn't need any stinking frizbee. He can chew on sticks!
This is not a precious snowflake dog that will mourn the loss of his favorite possession through long cold texas nights. He will chew on truck tires if he needs to.
MARY ROSE YOU WILL NOT GET A HAPPY ENDING
Sometimes my dad drinks Natural Light when he's dehydrated; he sits at the table without his shirt on and burps. I think this guy might be my cousin.
Yeah, it's a little fucked up that this guy's clearly spent too much on controlled substances and beer but his dog is boney. Dude, stop buying beer for a day or two and feed your dog more so he he doesn't look like a barking xylaphone.
his guy is making money off of irony. Clearly he's a damn genious.
The movie he made was nonsense I am now dumber for having watched the whole thing- I still can't figure out if he wanted to hire a hitman for his dog or his girlfriend.I think he needed to show the frisbee in action. The bid is up to like 22.00 now haha.
As someone who has a skinny dog, I gotta stand up for George on this one. What matters is if you can see hip bones, not rib bones. Some dogs just have sticky-outy ribs. Especially dogs who didn't eat well in their early years (like most rescue dogs). As long as they're thick around the hip joint, they're not malnourished. I used to worry constantly that my dog was underweight. Two different vets assured me she's not. Just built that way (and completely perfect thankyouverymuch)
"Hoss looks like a damn happy dog."
the whole thing went nutz on wed, but i enjoyed the who comenting thing but i thought well people only know what they tell you , not everybody thinks this is showbiznes to a degree, and WTf if you take a toy away from a dog, ,
the only coments i got worked up over was , some dog person contacting the city animal people, but then i thougth wait i am Texas they aint go crazy YET!, meaning if you heard your neighbor yell at his dog you can report them to the CPS and an agent will pay you a visit to see what up, but i though thats stupid even if they do bring it on!, i remember a couple of years ago the city passed a manitory tag all pets thing in San marc and it was like occupy the citu council building , people went nutz having signs that said, first our pets then our children, i wanted to know more about who passed it and why , the aniamal control folks i would lover to hear what they would have to say----
and coments like i am giving Texas a bad wrap, Good! anybody who don't get me , should get the Fuck out of TEXAS, and quit trying to make it like Cali, or some East coast tax haven,
i come form a long line of Texas A holes, what does it matter, its ebay,.
but i think the best came form that one person who said i am not no way an artist, bingo,
i did my job, but...
in this case i had some help, form who ever cut and paste that thing to regresty they decied to leave out my show write ups and clippings so when they saw it it looked some what beliveable untll they paned down on my auction.
So what next
well Hoss's Dog chewed frames on Etzy, oh yea, thanks Helen! Hoss is more popular than me i got to work him, ! he has to get a Job! pass this Bill! over here to my pocket!
