(Dailymotion link)

If you were a Disney cast member in 1976 and got the opportunity to play a character in one of the theme parks, this video helped you learn the rules. Thanks to Everything is Terrible, we get a glimpse into the not-so-glamorous world of catering to children the Disney way. -via Metafilter

This is a cry for help. No one should own cold-weather dogs in a hot climate much less exercise them during the day. If the ice maker was not there, he might have died.

Humans make decisions on pets for themselves, not for the pet. Besides the should-be-obvious danger of cold weather breeds in hot weather locales, too many breeds are now so deformed that their health is in danger daily. Put the health and wellbeing of your pet over your "I want" desires. No more smushed faces impeding breathing. No more giant breeds with serious skeletal issues that reduce their life span to under 8 years. Be kind and love animals, not breed them into grotesque shapes that doom them to illness and disease just because you think it's cute. Oh. BTW. Keep Golden Retrievers golden. Stop this ridiculous "white", inbred and line bred oddity.
