Gothamist: BREAKING: Moby Kidnaps Dog?

BREAKING: Moby Kidnaps Dog?

We were walking on Rivington Street this afternoon when we noticed this message printed on a bag and taped to the fence opposite Teany, the tea shop owned by electronic music star Moby. Anyone know the story behind it? Was the dog just abandoned there? What happened to the owner? So many questions!

that's funny, if memory serves, I've often seen a lil doggie tied up in front of teany itself! could the pot be calling the kettle black here?

If you don't know the difference between 'then' and 'than,' and when to use which one, THEN you will make an ass of yourself.

doesn't surprise me that the vegan moron doesn't know the difference between then and than.

I really hate it when people tie their dogs outside in this weather. Even if you're "just running in for a sec," leave the poor dog at home (assuming, of course, you have heat). Same goes in the summer during the sweltering heat (assuming, of course, you have A/C). They're living things, people! Not bikes.

Seriously:

* We don't know that this was done by Moby
* We don't know what happened to the dog, or what was happening to it, or what it was doing

So the personal attacks, widespread generalizations, and copy-editing don't reflect well on the lot of us as readers and commenters on Gothamist.

Of course, I guess there isn't much saying anything has to reflect well on us... But don't people have a shred of pride? An inkling of a desire for credibility through logic?

Or are we all snide fucks?

I think we're all snide fucks, good to be called upon to offer up pre-judgement anyday.

One should not leave their dog unattended.
It isn't fair to the dog.
And what happens if the dog, dog forbid, bites someone or is attacked by another dog or dognapped or gets loose. . .
