I'm not really one to get overly mushy about animals in public. I love my animal friends and all, but I keep that shit contained same as with my love for family.
But...
Has anyone else noticed how brutal those SPCA commercials are where they show sad abused animals with a background soundtrack by Sarah McLachlin or Natalie Merchant? MUCH worse for me than the starving Somali kids commercials. I guess it's good to keep up awareness and all, but man those commercials with the pathetic innocent animals just kill my mood.
