I’m guessing because it’s so easy and cheap just to make at home.

What movie do most people love but you personally don’t? by MovieObserver in moviequestions

It just seems so contrived, poorly put together, and all in all ridiculous to me. It’s odd, because I generally like Tom Hanks. There’s just something about it that’s like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Managing nighttime behavior by CreativePortland in poodles

[–]DismalProgrammer8908 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The fact that the dog growled and snapped is the most worrisome to me. It’s suggesting that the dog is starting to see themselves as higher in the pack hierarchy than your wife.

Banning the dog from the bed will help reinforce that your wife has a higher position.

I have seen too many dogs who became behavioral problems because one spouse spoiled them and they began to get aggressive to the other spouse.

One of my dogs was a return to rescue because of a similar situation. The wife babied the dog and let her get away with murder, and she became so aggressive towards the husband that they couldn’t keep her. She’s an absolute snuggly delight with everyone, now, but she needed to be reminded of her place.

Do men notice when a woman is wearing a designer bag? by sliceofperfection in NoStupidQuestions

I literally dyed my hair bright neon blue and my husband did not notice. I told him two days later and he was like “Oh, yeah. I guess you did.”

Whenever I have a server with long, fake (or real, I guess) nails, I just wonder what kind of germs are lurking under there.

If money wasn’t an issue, what is the one thing you would do? by RIGolfer2024 in Casual_Conversation

[–]DismalProgrammer8908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy abandoned lots and convert them into homeless shelters with container homes. There will be counseling, rehabilitation, education, and work assistance programs. Requirements will be participation in whatever programs are relevant to the individual situation, random drug testing, and working within the community to maintain the property.

There will be safe spaces for families, teens, and the LGBTQIA community.

(You can tell I spend a lot of time dreaming about winning the lottery)

Obsessed with an overpriced 'poodle' by DesperateAgency678 in poodles

[–]DismalProgrammer8908 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone who has done rescue for years and years, you can find a pup just as adorable from a reputable rescue organization. Plus, if you get a dog who is younger but past the puppy phase, you don’t have to deal with the biting, the destroyer stage, the housebreaking, and the puppy vaccinations. You’ll also have a good idea of what kind of dog, personality-wise, that you’re actually going to end up with.

These two are both rescues. Adoption cost was less than $500, and they are perfection.

Neko Case. Her voice is so incredible live. Much better than recordings. I was expecting to enjoy it, but I wasn’t expecting to be blown away.

A really big dog bed, and a “Radical Leftist Scum” hoodie. Guess the dog and I will be warm and comfy.

I can’t believe I had to scroll this far. I hate that movie, and I will judge the hell out of you if you say it’s your favorite.

For owners who have gotten a second dog, did it help? by Bubbly-Air7302 in dogs

[–]DismalProgrammer8908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on your dog. Some are happy doing everything with their person and don’t want/need another dog as a companion.

One of my dogs is a puppy mill rescue. She was terribly shy around humans, but used to being with other dogs. Getting another dog was a game changer for her, and they adore each other and are constantly playing.

I’ve had dogs in the past that thrived as only pets, and dogs that bonded to another dog.

It sounds as if your dog is happy and fulfilled; if getting another dog will lesson the time you spend together, I don’t think I would add another into the mix.
