But seriously, he’s adorable

What do you say to people when they tell you how cute they think your dog is? Do you say “thank you”? Because really, i have very little to do with his cuteness. True, i helped pick him out and every so often i bathe and brush him. But his cuteness is definitely beyond that - he just has a cute personality. So i’ve started doing this: When i’m walking Pi and someone tells me how cute he is, i look at Pi and say very seriously, “Say ‘thank you’, Pi… The nice lady just gave you a compliment, show some gratitude…” And when Pi just sits there being cute and the nice lady starts chuckling awkwardly, i turn it up a notch. “I’m so sorry ma’am, he really has an issue with manners.” And then again to Pi, “Seriously, you stupid fucking dog! I can’t take you anywhere without you constantly embarrassing me. You just wait until we get home and your mother hears about how ungrateful you were to this lady. You’ll get beat so bad that you’ll wish you had not only thanked her but bit me until i dropped your leash so you could run away and live with her.”

Now, screaming in the middle of the sidewalk, “That’s what’ll happen to you when we get home if you don’t apologize for your ridiculous hubris, you miserable excuse for a pet!” By this time, the aforementioned nice lady’s awkward chuckling has turned into wide-eyed horror, but she’s learned her lesson and my work there is done.

He is really cute though, i probably wouldn’t be able to keep quiet about it either.

    I hope you aren’t actually going around calling people ma’am. You know all women hate that, right?

    I think I know what you mean, though. When people compliment me on my cute wallet, for instance, I usually say something like, “oh yes, I like it.” It always feel awkward when I answer like that, but I kind of feel since it’s my wallet they are complimenting, and not me or my taste (except maybe indirectly), thanks aren’t really in order. But maybe that’s just because I’m slightly socially retarded.
