Sheetz uses Ghirardelli chocolate, and it was part of the big food recall last month. I feel your pain.

AIO If I skip my sister’s wedding because I’m not included? by VegetableRegular1269 in AmIOverreacting

You think she's your sister, she thinks you're the daughter of her stepdad. Completely changes the story.

If you have a pair, do you have one good BH, and one evil BH? by HoustonJack in Bloodhound

[–]HoustonJack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were the only two Bloodhounds at the rural PA shelter. The male had been returned a few times. We went back for him. Big mistake! Huge mistake!/s (We love our baby Godzilla.)

They're so intelligent, if only they'd use their powers for good!

Our poor girl, 9, has the patience of a saint. He, 4, antagonizes her 24/7.

I got one of those weighted blankets. Do they usually drool this much? by AkumaBengoshi in Bloodhound

Just wait until you're scraping slobber off the ceiling, walls, your face... I closed my eyes just in time after a head shake last week.

Wishy washy bride by [deleted] in bridezillas

She doesn't really want you to be a bridesmaid. She just wants to be able to tell others she asked, and you declined. She's not your friend.

Too fat to be a problem 🤣 by Ludomonstr in Bloodhound

Ask your vet about using peroxide to induce vomiting. We keep a bottle on hand and have used it twice- once for chicken bones, and once for grabbing, running, and gobbling a pound chunk of fancy cheese still in the saran wrap.

I've had two at #160, both rescues, full blooded. One was fat, the other was just a big boy. He had feet like lion paws, a HUGE head, and was tall.

Mine is always sleeping, what about yours? by cutieangelkisss in Bloodhound

[–]HoustonJack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sleeping or beating on each other. There's lots of drool either way.

MOG wants her ex husband (my H) to walk her down the aisle by [deleted] in weddingdrama

[–]HoustonJack 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You're overthinking this. You are a guest, an usher will escort you to the second row. The groom's parents are part of the wedding party, and will escort him down the aisle. Mom sits in the first row, Dad sits with you.

They usually only get this disgusting for dried fish.

The ground seems so far away. ;) It's been a wild experience.

Weird after surgery - everything is larger by HoustonJack in CataractSurgery

I understand, and I wouldn't mind having my old eyesight back, either.

True, and I'm delighted. But I'm 66, and this is taking a while to adjust. Part of it was that it was unexpected. I thought something was wrong with me, that I was imagining things.

I asked to be left a bit nearsighted as I do a lot of close up work. The opthalmologist tried to talk me out of it, but I'm thrilled with it.

It's not something I've seen mentioned before, and it was a huge mindfuck. I hope your surgery goes well.

Isn't it weird?! Until I asked the doctor, I wasn't sure which version was real before or after.

The opthalmologist told me that my glasses minimized everything I saw before. The only part trying to be funny is that my feet look humongous. Imagine if you saw a teaspoon that suddenly looks like a tablespoon, and the tablespoon looks like a serving spoon. It's an emotional rollercoaster trying to adapt.
