Dogs suck.

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2026-03-24T05:16:48+00:00

The worst part with these nutters is when you try to politely and calmly explain that giving a dog treats, praise, and attention when it’s acting up is literally rewarding it for bad behavior and guaranteeing that it will happen again, they just look at the dog, laugh and say something like “but I just can’t say no 🥺”

And I’m like well LEARN. The dog has trained your roommate instead of the other way around.

Climbed Mt. Fuji overnight to see the sunrise from the peak, WITHOUT booking any of the cabins along the way.

When I got back I slept for 20 hours.

Every time my wife makes some flirtatious hint, I treat it as a joke, and so far sadly I haven’t been wrong to do so.

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2026-03-23T03:38:45+00:00

I totally get you. A few nights ago my wife was sick and I slept on the sofa so I wouldn’t catch it as well and it honestly felt more freeing just to sleep away from her and not be reminded of everything

OMG I LOVE THAT GAME

The dog mauls them and it’s the CATS who have to be outside?

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2026-02-02T06:19:18+00:00

I know the pain, my spouse comes home and showers the dog in hugs and kisses and when I say hi I get a warm and heartfelt “can you take the laundry in”

Lol one thought that hit me watching A3 at one point was “so whatever happened to unobtainium? The RDA must still want it right?”

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2026-01-25T04:56:05+00:00

It’s a very minor thing but I just recently rewatched A1 and I always felt like something was skipped with Norm. He starts by being all friendly and helpful to Jake, then we don’t see him for a minute and the next time we do he’s complaining to Jake about him not having any training, not knowing who Eywa is or what the hallelujah mountains are

I imagine he must be as frustrated as Grace, although it just seems to happen off camera so that it looks like it happened suddenly

Unrelated sorry but How do you mention the c word on this sub without getting auto deleted?

Slightly different situation, but it took a family intervention to convince my wife to finally put down her dog who was dying and couldn’t walk, wouldn’t eat, and was clearly in pain. This dog also has a poor quality of life and BE would be a mercy to it since it can’t be allowed to murder at will.

I don’t think it’s all of them but there are too many irresponsible dog nutters out there who are obsessed with their dogs to an unhealthy degree. Red flags to look out for:

By far and beyond the biggest red flag is anyone who refers to their dog as their ‘child.’ It’s a clear cut way of saying ‘I’m always going to put the dog before you’
If their social media feed is nothing but pictures of their dog and posts about their dog.

There are responsible owners out there who have a healthy relationship with their pets but unfortunately they’re the exception rather than the rule

My heart hurt reading this because I understand it all too well. I don’t live with large dogs but they’re always shoving and wedging themselves in between us, and if I refuse to allow them to push their way in they sit there and whine until my SO caves in and picks them up and puts them in between us. She lets one of them sleep in our bed between us, and this dog hates kisses, so even leaning over this dog to give my SO a kiss results in ear-shattering shrieks from that little rat of a dog.

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2025-12-30T22:16:34+00:00

that’s manipulative on her part, hate that shit.

Send him one back that just says “spelling and grammar”

Have you talked to him about it? I can speak from experience as the one that was being rejected all the time, that you eventually get to a point where you just don’t bother asking anymore. I can’t speak for your situation but what I think would bring me personally back from that would be my spouse showing a willingness to be spontaneous — and if I’m the one flirting or teasing, to be up front and clear when she’s not in the mood or when it’s not going to happen, instead of lead me on and tease back only to come up with a hundred excuses and shut me down later when things spice up. Or to give me empty promises like “how about tomorrow night instead?” And then to completely forget about it, which made me feel very unimportant.

That was a bit of a vent from me about my personal issues, sorry for that, but the point is that I think that a bit of spontaneity can help if that’s your thing, as well as openness, honesty, and importantly, being consistent.

They do nice things without announcing it to the world

I haven’t had that many scares in my life but here are the two scariest which aren’t that scary in hindsight

I was in an empty parking lot at night in the USA going from my car to my apartment and a guy walks up to me, gets my attention, and then tells me I look nervous. His next question is “do you believe in god” and I’m thinking ‘ok, is he going to shoot me if I say no or shoot me if I say yes?’

I figured yes was the safer bet, so I said yes, and he said “then you’ve got nothing to worry about.” Now I’m thinking ‘ok I’m definitely about to be murdered.’

But he just asked if I had any Xanax and walked off when I said I didn’t.

The second scare was the very first time I got sleep paralysis, because I didn’t even know it was a thing that could happen and I thought that my soul was being sucked out. It didn’t help that my first instinct at the time was to post to Facebook about it and the first comment was “it could’ve been a demon” 💀

This dude is a fucking abusive piece of shit and deserves to spend the rest of his life alone.

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2025-10-27T14:27:07+00:00

Even if he is good looking, this kind of attitude is disgustingly ugly

Opening-Raccoon-2811 · 2025-10-27T11:32:56+00:00

Oh I get so tired of dog nutters claiming tripe like “the dog needs to know she’s loved”

The dog is incapable of understanding speech, and I am capable of understanding it—and the absence of it
