Scene at the vet:
I'm sitting in the vet waiting room with my dog, Sandy. A guy walks in with his dog. The two dogs look like they are from the same breed. While my dog is groomed, coat is shiny, and has a cute motif around her face, his dog's hair is long, wiry and matted.
Guy: You cut her hair?
Me: Yes, if I didn't she'd look like that (and pointed at his dog).
Nothing else was said.
It was the honest truth. Did I just not care about offending him? I think the jet lag has set in and I didn't have my filter on.
