    Shorter than mine.
    I would never want a pet to go through the grief of me dying.

    • Thanks, Vuhnessuh.
      .
      So no tortoises, turtles, or parrots for you?
      .
      I've heard that lobsters can live up to 100 years, and I'm not sure what the crustacean capacity for grief is. :p

    • Nope, definitely no parrots. They talk to much anyway.
      I have pigs. They live pretty long, but I'll still out live them.

    • Yeah, parrots can be nasty too:
      .
      Wanda's dishwasher quit working so she called in a repairman. Since she had to go to work the next day, she told the repairman, "I'll leave the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the counter, and I'll mail you a check. Oh, by the way don't worry about my dog Spike. He won't bother you."?
      .
      "But, whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances, talk to my parrot!"?
      .
      "I MUST STRESS TO YOU:DONOTTALKTO MY PARROT!!!"
      .
      When the repairman arrived at Wanda's apartment the following day, he discovered the biggest, meanest looking dog he has ever seen. But, just as she had said, the dog just lay there on the carpet watching the repairman go about his work.
      .
      The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his incessant yelling, cursing and name calling.
      .
      Finally the repairman couldn't contain himself any longer and yelled, "Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!"
      .
      To which the parrot replied,?
      .
      "Get him Spike!"

    • Lulz. Good one.
      I don't like birds. I use to have two parakeets and all they did was fling their shit everyone.
      Stoopid birds.

    • aww I wuv them!
      I just love pigs, period. :D
      Ever since having my babies, I honestly can't imagine not having pet pigs for the rest of my life.
      I plan on getting more when I can. Just want a home first with a big enough yard. Perhaps a ranch. We'll see.
