Am not! ;-)

Bunch of trolls!

World Wide Woof

It’s the Twilight Bark! Pass it on!

He on the interpet petwork eh.

Arguing with folks he doesn’t know? Are you sure?

He might actually know some of them – they are in the neighborhood.

Haters gotta hate

Don’t hate the haters, pity them

Facebark.

My cowgirl corgi lectures the passing deer on which are the best trees to avoid

It’s true: the Internet IS basically just random people barking at each other

Around my house, we call this the DNN — Dog News Network. Dogs down the street pass news up our way and my corgi passes it on. Some messages only require a brief response (“trash truck coming”), others entail a long conversation. Telling them to hush doesn’t work.

Just shut the monitor…

“Leave me alone. You want Hitler should win?”

As Randall Munroe said, Someone is wrong on the Internet.

They could be strays.

He can hear dogs all the way from Russia claiming to be from America so they can bark up trouble.

On this Internet, everybody knows you’re a dog…

This joke could have been done any number of times with each new advance in telecommunications, starting with “dog telegraph.”
