My dog is getting old /sci/

and I'm not a religious person at all, so I have no comfort in the imaginary world of heaven.

But I know that the light of the sun reflected off of us when we played together

and those light waves, whatever made it through and out of our blue marble, are traveling somewhere in the universe

and even if he'll be gone someday, I'll know that image, and that memory, is somewhere out there.

and it makes me feel good

because until my time comes, I'll always remember the fun times we had together, and how much I loved him.

Peace of mind through science, it's the best I can do.

Made me sad too, I also have an old dog. Why does that heart-string sit so close to the surface? Any time I think about a dog dying I get a lump in my throat, unless it's a bad dog that I would kill myself.

OP, that post got its place into my Fortunes.txt. Manly tears.

Good luck for you and your dog, you seem to be great brothers. When his time comes, he sure wouldn't want you to be sad. Just be the greatest friend to him while you still can, finish it like a true goddamn brother.

Kill yourself immediately, you're killing some biological life forms as we speak and this needs to stop. Fucking retard.

You can, for totally arbitrary reasons, decide that you like dogs but don't like snakes. I can do the same and as far as I'm concerned dog can end up in the china restaurant.

Those rays were most likely blocked by the clouds or distorted to which it would be impossible to "translate" it to your time spent. Not to mention they would be mixed in with so many other light rays as well. It would just be light.

Cute. Those beasts do have some use despite tasting fine, apparently.

Ok, i'm just provoking. I like dogs. But are you aware that you have no moral ground to stand on? You're favouring dogs for purely selfish reasons.

The photons would be too scattered to exit the atmosphere or even move through the particles in the air for more than a meter. The information of "your picture" is lost and cannot be put back together.

It's just a dog. It can't even think.
