I don't give a fuck about the issue. But it's Friday, you say stupid shit, you choose your words with less precision than a 12 year old using IM, and you can't argue your way out of a Whole Foods Bag.

I like you more and more every day.

Good God, woman. Granted, the joke wasn't funny, but you should at least recognize it as a joke.

This wasn't funny the first 50 times Hank did it. Why would you think it was funny coming from you?

I think in this case, you have to get rid of them, and if you have to kill them to comply with the law, that's what you have to do. Raccoon rabies is not a good thing.

I hear butterfly rabies is actually quite nice.

One night I thought there was a bear at my window, but it was two huge Rocky Raccoons who had come to check out my garbage.

But someone was already inside checking out your garbage?

I only did it twice. Once I was drunk and it seemed funny to me, then earlier today, it was okay because there was a Fyou component.

You're half right.

This is really, really sick. I wouldn't do this even to Wanker's kids.

A couple facing criminal abuse charges forced some of their 18 foster, adopted and biological children -- many of them disabled -- to dig their own graves, warning the youngsters they could be killed and nobody would care, according to investigative documents.

I was going to comment on this. Then I realized there is nothing I could say that would be quite so damning as this post.

No. I don't think so. You try to play it like you wered joking, but you weren't. You posted this to hurt me. That's what is funny to you. I understand exactly what you were doing. The fact that you get so much joy out of doing it, even when I ignore it, is what makes it so clear that it's an obssession with you. And that is what is so pathetic.

So my question is: What should I do? Do I have to call my landlord and get him to hire Mister Rueysbroeck to come kill the raccoon or can I live in Lala Land and hope it will not come back downstairs? (Usually, unlike last night, I keep the closet door closed but it's where most of my clothes are.) Or should I try to block the hole in the ceiling?

Everybody who has given you advice is right. You must get rid of the raccoon as soon as possible. The only thing that hasn't been addressed is that I gather from your question that you rent. Is this correct? If that's the case, call your landlord immediately, so that he or she can arrange to get rid of the animal and make the necessary repairs.

Duuuuude, it wasn't the garbage that was gettin' checked out - it was the JUNK in the TRUNK. Oh yeah.

I think my advice was that if it doesn't sound like a bear is stomping around overhead, the raccoon is not there and you don't need to take it out. My motto: You don't need to deal with a problem that might crawl over to someone else's attic. That said, telling the landlord to patch the holes is a good idea for all involved.

Did you ever consider that the raccoon could have died a horrible grisly death trying to escape the house last night? You might want to have it removed then, lest it begin to stink and attact other pests. Ever think of that one, Mr. Smarty? Huh?

This has to be the worst case of hemorrhoids I've ever seen.

(B) Is the word "rabies" singular or plural? Rabies is bad or rabies are bad?

I don't know, but I would guess singular. However, the sentence in question does have noun-verb agreement, as the verb goes with the word "sorts" not "rabies".
