The dog (non-descript breed, but pretty large - 60lbs or so) stopped to sniff at something or other, and the woman began jerking the leash - not a little 'come-on-puppy' tug, but like she was trying to pull a fat man out of a tiger pit. As an almost autonomic response, I shouted across the road, 'Gee, I bet THAT hurts' and was told to fuck off and mind my own business.
The dog then got done with his olfactory investigations and trotted along after the woman. Good thing to, as I'm sure she had to get home and beat her kids.

What a fucking bitch! Taking her anger out on a dog. As Neimenovic says, "Off with her head!"
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.' -Isaac Asimov-
