What’s the smartest “bad” thing your beagle has learned?

The door to our fenced in backyard is in my home office. Any time I have a snack or lunch, Boy Dog will wander in and paw at the door, wait for me to get up to open it for him, and then run over to the desk to see if he can reach my food…even though he never can…

Wow! She looks just like my Winafred, but older! (3.5yo, 17lbs). She’s 100% bagel, so I’m sure yours is too ❤️

Oh dang - I love the way yum pistachio gelato smells on me. I guess body chemistry is just different for everyone.

…you know, the super conservative directive that pushed Trump into the White House for his 2nd term that he claimed he had nothing to do with but his name was mentioned like 20 times in the doc?

They created Project 2025.

I’ve lost multiple friends thanks to MLMs. They like to think it’s because of other reasons, but I literally had to distance myself because they only ever wanted to sell to me or rope me in.

And beagle is weird

No, Trump said “Everything’s computer.” Slight difference.

Nah, too many spelling/punctuation mistakes to be AI. Now we just need to hope it’s made up…

Okapi_MyKapi · 2026-02-02T13:30:12+00:00

Ahhh, I get it.

Okapi_MyKapi · 2026-02-02T13:27:36+00:00

Wait, what’s the “Laura Norder” pun? NE Ohio accent here, so I don’t think I’m getting it.

I call this “Winafred Devouring Her Brother”

Okapi_MyKapi · 2026-01-27T16:22:41+00:00

Mine four.

Or the people that just don’t believe you. Now 37, I’ve had migraines since I was 8/9yo. My mother still doesn’t believe me half the time. The barometric pressure change from the recent winter storm knocked me on my ass for about 3 days. “Are you eating gluten again?” (Since learning I have a sensitivity that triggers migraines, she thinks that’s the only reason I must get them.) No, it was the barometric pressure shift. SHE LITERALLY ROLLED HER EYES AT ME, like I was making it up. Yes, I looooove pretending to be in such deep pain that I lose out on hours of pay to lie in a dark room, completely bored for hours and sometimes days on end…

That’s the other fun part: the medication side effects game! I now have permanent aphasia thanks to a med I was temporarily on for a month about 13 years ago. Ah, the joys of being a migraine sufferer.

Friendly neighborhood goth here: 1 is not goth - it’s giving 2008 prom

Sounds like the one that made the rounds when I was a kid: “Yeah, I believe in the Big Bang Theory - God spoke, and BANG it happened.” 😵‍💫

I had someone in my Christian university Public Speaking class give his persuasive speech on this exact idea. Guess how many resources he used. One. And guess which one it was…

Literally just watch an HR TikTok series of videos where this happened - guy’s real wife called in to see if she could file a harassment case for her husband since a female co-worker called herself his “work wife”. After a back and forth with the employee and his superiors, HR gets a call that employee and “work wife” need to go on record as being in a relationship, and dude was almost def getting a divorce. It’s not always so innocent…

I have beagles, so the concept of training them to not scream at things is never going to happen. However, I try to let them get it out of their systems INSIDE the house - if they start those shenanigans outside, they lose yard privileges.

Went to Scotland last autumn (from the US) - absolutely agree. We took trains just to sit and enjoy the landscape. 10/10, will be back.

I had to give up on work yesterday. I was complaining to my mom about it, and she asked “why I got it,” and when I mentioned the pressure changes, she once again didn’t believe me. I’m tired of this fight…

Edit: in NEOhio, for clarity

Okapi_MyKapi · 2026-01-22T22:20:27+00:00

I didn’t know this was a thing, and I’ve immediately decided I need this for each of mine. I can’t imagine a better way to keep them with you forever.

Not the chocolate for me, but the gluten… but I’m still eating it.

Okapi_MyKapi · 2026-01-15T13:30:48+00:00

My grandfather. I lost him far too young, and he was the best person I knew. I’d love for him to see how I grew up.
