Sarah Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 So the barracks I got have a bad silicon job - panels of the sections are falling off completely, so needs to be re-siliconed. So dad didn't have any aquarium-safe silicon, so we went and got some. The guy at the store goes to me, "so you have fish yes?" Without going into much detail, I told him of the animals I did own. He then said, "gee, you couldn't be a normal child and have a dog or something could you?" I told him I also had a dog, infact we had two. So there we have it, I'm not normal.. and I guess if you're reading this on a fish forum you guys aren't either. Made me giggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiameseFightingFist Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 He then said, "gee, you couldn't be a normal child and have a dog or something could you?" It ain't his business, you should've kicked him where it hurts for being all negative about what makes you get out of bed each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Going to start taking photos of people's faces as I show them my fish. I think generally people expect me to have a few cup-sized tanks for my fushus, and the rest of the room filled with shoes (hate shoes... infact I have really bad flat feet so even thongs are too painful to wear anyway), Their reaction always amuses me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
