    A friend of mine named his dog Byte. The dog is very playful, and has the habit of running in the direction of other people he meets.

    When the dog does that my friend tries to call him back shouting: "BYTE!! BYTE!!". People get really scared when this happens 😂

    Okay, not so funny if you are the one being approached by the dog.
