I know that I complain about my co-workers, but sometimes they really make me laugh. They can be soooo funny!
So #1 just announced that she wants a puppy and that we should buy her one for her birthday. I told her to be careful what she wished for because I would get her a dog if she wanted one. So #2 and I say we'll go to the Humane Society and get a little friend for her (of course, that wouldn't work because the humane society interviews you and wouldn't let us get one as a gift, but I digress).
So #1 says no - she needs a dog with pedigree.
#2 tells her she doesn't need a pedigree dog - mixed breeds are great. #1 says mixed breeds aren't as good. They're going back and forth, and finally #2 decides to explain it.
REMEMBER: This is NOT the soapbox - I'm just sharing a funny story of a conversation.
#2 says dogs are like people. Pure breeds have pedigree, but they are like Republicans. Mixed breeds are like Democrats.

Without getting into politics and insults and without anyone taking this personally, I just had to laugh out loud. This is the logic that I work with on a daily basis!
