The angry behaviour shown by a person when he has to accept all blame and he cannot shift it to anybody else because he is in the lowest rung of hierarchy in his organization. This happens when a boss, who is to blame, shifts the blame to his junior, who, in turn, passes it to his junior and so on till the blame reaches the lowest-ranked staff, who cannot pass it to anybody else. Then he goes home and takes it out on his dog by kicking it about.
Angry at having to bear the blame for no fault of his, the peon came back home in the evening and kicked his dog repeatedly. A kick-the-dog effect, isn't it?

Jamie: Oh that's friggin' awesome! Kick a DOG!
Me: What the? What did I tell you about kicking dogs?
Jamie: "It's fun"?

Get the kick a dog mug.To feel bad about yourself because of the way you are.
To hate something about yourself that you cant change.
Sometimes to hate the way others react to what you do or say.

Why do you have to kick the dog every night about cuz you dont have a girlfriend?
Hey, hey, man, dont do it I saw you kick the dog into a brick wall last time you went and confessed to missing a date with your girlfriend just so you could trip with your mates.
Man I never kick the dog over how big my dong is I just wish I had some girl who knew a place i could put it
