You got attacked by a dog?!

Without suffering too much damage except for a cheap wristwatch. A couple was walking their two pit bulls and one of them lunged at me without growling or barking or saying "fuck you" first and it got my sweatshirt sleeve and then kept right on going dragging the owner who yelled are you OK and I thought I was until I got home, took off the sweatshirt and my discovered my wristwatch band was torn off.

I see 89 pound women walking 130 pound pit bulls that they can't control if the dog decides to go bat shit.

In the interest of accuracy (a passing phase) pit bulls don't actually weigh 130 pounds; it's more like 60, but in my brief encounter it was clear the owner, who had it by the leash, couldn't stop it from lunging at me and then got yanked down the street after the pit bull lost interest. So it's kinda like taking a Tasmanian Devil for a walk, but I'm basing that metaphor on Warner Brothers cartoons which were way more memorable than what I learned in school.

Glad you survived with only minor damage - favorite sweatshirt, I presume? You're lucky the other pit bull didn't want to join his buddy's fun.
