What has pissed you off today?

[AR15L]

I just got done reading the letter from immigration's for the third time.
Those cocksucking assholes are really pissing me off.
My wife's green card expired so we got an extension. They admitted their fault because, "they're busy".
Two months later, today, we get this somewhat nasty letter saying they denied the "condition" of release on your residence removed.

GOOD FAITH MARRIAGE, INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE

GO FUCK YOURSELVES!
It goes on and I don't want to bore you with petty ass details.

Here is the last nail in the coffin.

Please do not send copies of documents previously submitted.

WTF????????????

They fuck with the legals like this but the illegals get free this and free that and even vote.

I hear you, brother...my wife struggled from the first form till receipt of her 10 yr Green card. USCIS is a monkey driven cluster-fick.

Fantasy football team lost by .01, all because of a stat correction, and the fact they are counting Willson down for a sack at the line of scrimmage despite him going out of bounds.

I hit a deer... Idiot stopped running, then reversed direction, stopping right in front of my truck...

I'm going 45 MPH.....no reaction time to stop for suicidal deer..

I pulled over to dispatch the deer, but apparently its head was severed and its body managed to make it into the ditch, so, no need to drag DNR into this since it was already dead.

No apparent damage to my truck, looks like bumper knocked it over, and skid plate did its job...

Why am I pissed?

I cried. I don't cry over stupid animals doing stupid shit....

Either I'm going soft, or I got a lot more shit on my plate than I think I do and my brain is making excuses to release some of it...

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go find a hug.

Meh.

I've never hit a deer, but I've hit other things (squirrels, birds, even a fucking barn owl once) and it really tears me up every time I do it.

I don't think of it as "stupid animals doing stupid shit," but rather innocent animals basically caught in the crossfire of the sheer POWER that humans bring to the environment. They don't deserve to die, but they die anyhow.

It's sad, and I don't think less of you for feeling the impact . . . no pun intended.

[NWGunner]

I always view stuff like this as maybe something was wrong with the animal (dog, cat, deer, etc), and it was perhaps sick (cancer, dementia, rabies, etc.), and this was God's way of ending it's suffering.

Dumb for some, works for me....

Its not legal for you to dispatch it btw. Even if its the right thing to do, its not the legal thing to do. DNR has nothing to do with roadkills either. You'd want to contact WDFW. The best way to honor that animal would have been to salvage it. Its a very quick and easy "permit" on the WDFW site.
I am sorry this happened to you. Luckily your rig is in good shape still. Consider what I said for the next time this happens.

I've heard conflicting stories. Illegal to shoot it... Illegal to not shoot it if capable because animal cruelty, etc. Thanks for heads up about fish and wildlife, I tend to lump DNR and WDFW together forgetting they're actually separate agencies...

2 lane road, ditch on both sides, rural, no street lights, no shoulder, 45MPH speed limit = 60MPH cars... Not safe to do anything other than remove it from the road, TBH, and as mentioned, I didn't have to do that. I'm lucky I have my Christmas tree/UFO setup and that definitely slowed traffic but still not something I'd wanna risk my safety doing.. Being outside of a vehicle on a road like that is pretty low on my list of things to do. Heh.


Edit: looked it up... Indeed.. Unlawful to euthanize... Fucking stupid. And permit is https://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/game_salv ... ation.html in case anyone else needs it.

Yep! I just went through this on Mothers Day. Hit an Elk and totalled my Jeep on the way to work. Sheriff and WDFW said illegal to dispatch. Which, like I said, doesnt mean its the wrong thing to do. Not saying you should have endangered yourself for it, but it may turned a shitty situation into a positive one if you were able to salvage anything at all. Couldnt hurt to boost your food stuffs, or at the least local food banks are always happy to take to fresh wild game.

For years I thought it was the other way around, its ok to put the animal out of its misery but illegal to take the meat.

I stand corrected

It was illegal to take the meat. As of 2016, a roadkill salvage law was passed. Meow its all legal like!

Ahh gotcha.

Yeah 15 or so years ago I hit a Doe going east I 90 @ Vantage...she almost made it....crushed her hind quarters.

For her effort she got an axe to the back of the neck.

I figured anybody wanna turn me in is a freakin pussy and knows nothing about what happens to a wounded deer after dark....

Its the right thing to do.
