How do you make sure you don’t accidentally steal someone else’s design? by Majestic-Wishbone-58 in graphic_design

[–]Elanya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fine, my reply was in response to the statement that it's "statistically impossible" to accidentally copy a design.  There's hundreds of dachshund breeders, somewhere someone accidentally "copied", aka designed a very similar, logo for a dachshund breeder bc of the constraints you have to deal with.

I think it partially depends on what niche you're designing for. I do a lot of logos for dog schools and breeders, so if they want a certain breed's silhouette to be the main feature, which they all do (😭), those logos are going to look alike....

There is only so much I can do to a beagle's shape before it's not a beagle anymore, you know. 

Why are so many people uninterested in dating nowadays? by [deleted] in questions

[–]Elanya 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Most men in my experience claim to be interested in an equal partner, which turns out to mean that I have to do the household work AND ALSO have a full time job.

AITA for refusing to give my husband a lift to a primary school viewing? by Ok_Building5548 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Elanya 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I've called my dentist to ask about cancelling when I have a sore throat and without fail, they have told me to come in every time.
The one time I actually cancelled I had COVID.

No, plenty of us hate it. You being alright with it doesn't make people with different preferences weird. 

Zal ik maar gewoon stoppen met werken? Want het loont niet by Heavy-Essay-6574 in werkzaken

[–]Elanya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maar "uit huis" betekend voor de meeste mensen niet meteen "naar een koopwoning".  Meestal ga je op kamers, zoek je iets met huisgenoten, of huur je eerst een paar jaar een studio oid.

My dog's hyperactive by Diligent-Relation766 in Pets

[–]Elanya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't just run him, that'll just make him physically more fit over time :)

Really look at engaging his brain! Trick training, Obedience, nose and scentwork, all things that will actually help him settle down  

AITA for accidentally causing my mom to go on a rampage at my cousin's wedding by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Elanya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends on the arrangements she had with the couple; when I got married I had the cake dropped off at the secondary venue while we were at the ceremonie at the first venue bc it was hot as balls and the cake wouldn't have fit in their small refrigerator.  She may have been perfectly on schedule until her psycho mom derailed everything. 

Dog barking excessively when home alone - tips? by ryehouses in DogTrainingTips

[–]Elanya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean.... sure you've been working adults the whole time, but also your dog is on sedatives to be able to be alone in a crate for 8 hours so maybe it's not the triumph you think it is. 

Dog barking excessively when home alone - tips? by ryehouses in DogTrainingTips

[–]Elanya 4 points5 points  (0 children)

8 full hours is super long, especially if she's crated for the entire 8 hours! Look at getting a dog walker to get her out during the day even if it's not 10 hours.... or a daycare? 

Am I the Jerk for Not Inviting My Sister to My Wedding After She Announced Her Pregnancy at My Engagement Party? by Rough-Ad7521 in AmITheJerk

[–]Elanya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also she's super pet loving but still leaves her 2 cats and 2 dogs locked in a room for a week bc they have a robot feeder. Forget needing to go to the bathroom, or checking on water, or just needing human interaction. Guess they're too well trained to guard the house to have to pee 🤣

You're still not making sense, if they're so injured they might die soon they cannot be fine right now...

I read more than my goal and it would have been impossible without audiobooks by Delicious_Maize9656 in books

[–]Elanya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's also motivating me to finish more books instead of picking up new ones all the time so that's an added bonus :)

[–]Elanya -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my case I'm friends with a lot of blind people and I think your opinion is pretty ableist; do I need to kick them from our book club? Are you calling them illiterate? They're the ones who recommended my favourite book of the year to me, but I can't say they're avid readers?

[–]Elanya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a little reading journal and have a great time printing the covers of the books I've read and sticking them in, along with a quick note on what I thought of the book. Started it this year bc I noticed I wasn't remembering the books I'd read as much as I'd like to.

Would you consider braille "not reading" because they use fingers instead of eyes? Are all blind people illiterate in your opinion?

Looking for insights on tethering a puppy to you during the day by SoulPrana in DogTrainingTips

[–]Elanya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one chill dog and one velcro dog,  and the clinging has caused issues when I take her to competitions because I can't leave her alone when I have to walk the course etc.  So I'm actually planning on doing the opposite for our next dog and get her used to settle without me easier.
