I would say lighten up, but... no, in fact I will.

If you post something serious with a bit of levity in a forum full of jokers, dont' expect a lot of serious replies. The solution (take it to the vet) was self-evident, so there wasn't really a need for the 'take your dog to the vet' replies.

I didn't detect any seriousness in any of the posts, whether regarding 'kick it in the stomach again' or 'time to get a new dog!' In all seriousness, this sort of disregard for life or conventions or morality or whatever is pretty common in almost all comedy (stand up springs immediately to mind), so I don't have too much sympathy for anyone who takes this stuff seriously. I mean that's pretty much what the wilder forums are like, a bunch of aspiring 'edgy' comedians.

So as much as I hate to be one of those guys who says to lighten up or leave, I have a certain amount of that feeling here.

Try reading the whole thread, first. There were some serious replies that were uncalled for.
