I had a mad plan to mate Harley (4th GEneration Pedigree Alsatian, longcoat) with Coco, a mix of Jack Russell Terrier and a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, to create teeny tiny bundles of pointless agression with surprisingly large heads.
They stopped me though, dammit.

Or greyhounds. Incredibly laid back, pretty smart too. If they need to poo, but no one's home to take them, they nodge the basement door open and poop on the floor. Sure we're stil angry, but at least it's not on the carpet where everyone can see. Very hypoalergenic too.

I prefer cats, because generally they are not as aggressively friendly as dogs. However, I adopted a neighbor's cat after she died in a house fire and he is not happy unless he's sitting on my lap.

You can't rough house with a Greyhound. THey just sort of stare at you bemused.
You obivously have never met American Greyhounds. After they retire, they put on weight, and love to mess around. After a while of leaving the tracks, their play drive slows down, but they still love to play. just don't make them angry, cause they'll pee over your bed. Just ask mybrother.

Funny my cat doesn't seem to be happy unless his claws are slowly digging into my flesh......
And so, due to rising costs of maintaining the Golden Throne, the Emperor's finest accountants spoke to the Demigurg. A deal was forged in blood and extensive paperwork for a sub-prime mortgage with a 5/1 ARM on the Imperial Palace. And lo, in the following years the housing market did tumble and the rate skyrocketed leaving the Emperor's coffers bare. A dark time has begun for the Imperium, the tithes can not keep up with the balloon payments and the Imperial Palace and its contents, including the Golden Throne, have fallen into foreclosure. With an impending auction on the horizon mankind holds its breath as it waits to see who will gain possession of the corpse-god and thus, the fate of humanity......

C'mon! you have to be a little bit of a masochist to own a cat.
Cat = Ungrateful little sod that will be off the second someone offers it better food.
Dogs are cool! Except upstairs dog's who are barky little morons, and too fond of muddying my crotch area whenever they see me. And even then, if I see them coming, they are okay.

Oh, I can afford a dog. It's the vet bills, paying to board the dog when I'm out of town (which actually wouldn't be complicated because my apartment complex is across the street from an animal boarding house) and the fact that in about a year and a half, I'm going to move to the opposite side of the country. Also, I agree greyhounds are awesome dogs. Also wheatens are great dogs. My mom has one and It's absolutely hysterical.

My wife of the past 5 years told me this morning that it's over, and there's no going back. Sucks to be me right now.
man, I'm sorry to hear that.
Anything I can say is going to sound really trite here, but keep your chin up fella and try to stay positive.
Oh, get a good lawyer I suppose. Hope it all works out for you anyway.
The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

We still get on well enough that we shouldn't need lawyers on either side. I've never been able to stay positive even when things are going well for me.
Just don't crawl into the bottom of a bottle/similar, regardless of how tempting it might seem.

As for bad days, I have them everyday. I'm married.
Injuries, I have never broken a bone, but in second grade (I think I was 6, maybe 7?) I scraped the left side of my face of the day before Halloween in a skateboarding accident. My face had a friction contest with the street.
The street won.
Upside was I looked like a zombie so my Halloween costume was easy. We even left my blood on the front door for a nice effect.

The majority of marriages these days end in divorce. I believe that most of the people who stay together do so because they've become accustomed to living lives of well-concealed loathing for their spouse. Don't think of it as an ending, just another punctuation mark.

I don't mean to sound like a , but at least it wasn't 15 years. You still have a lot of life to live. If you think your life is bad, at least think of this. it's what I do when i think my life sucks.
1. Imagine you are a syamese twin
2. Your brother is attached to your shoulder.
3. He is gay.
4. He has a date tonight.
