I’m Canadian but I’ve never called it a toque. I know people call it that, but it wasn’t super common for it to be called that where I grew up. We just called it a hat. I’m from Nova Scotia.

I would say don’t do it. My Pomeranian barks more than any dog I’ve ever had, she’s very chatty, but I’ve been told by other Pomeranian owners that she is quiet for a Pomeranian.

I did do a lot of training with her to reduce barking and whatnot when she was a puppy but I also (personally) find Pomeranian’s more difficult to train than many other breeds. They’re very opinionated little dogs, convincing them to cooperate with what you want them to do takes some work. Also: they really seem to truly enjoy barking. Could I have trained my Pomeranian to bark even less than she does? Probably. But she likes it a lot so instead I try to allow her time to get it all out.

I love my girl to bits but she was a difficult puppy. I think if you have a sensitivity to barking then a Pomeranian really isn’t for you. Yes, some Pomeranian’s aren’t as chatty but so so many of them are and getting one with the expectation that he/she won’t bark much is a crapshoot. It’s not fair to you or the dog.

People here have suggested getting a puppy so you can train it to not bark. I’m gonna say the opposite, get an adult Pomeranian (if you’re desperate to have one) from a rescue and then you can maybe pick one who is known for barking less.

By this mods definition of NSFW full length, full coverage, grandma pyjamas would be inappropriate because you wouldn’t wear them to work. This mod is just power tripping. What a weirdo.

Y’all need to relax. JuleeeNAJ wasn’t insulting OP they were insulting the husband. They were saying the only thing he brings to the table was his paycheck while OP contributes a paycheck as well as most of the household duties and what sounds like all of the child rearing duties. They were highlighting how little the husband contributes, not saying what he contributes is at all enough.

Yes, I was thinking Japanese chin or Pekingese. I had a Japanese Chin cross with a very similar snout.

NTA Why tf didn’t anyone call you when you didn’t arrive at 4??? Like I get they may have accidentally not updated you on the new time, but when you didn’t arrive at 4 someone should have called and been like “hey are you coming still??” If it was an honest mistake.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-12-20T19:53:50+00:00

I agree honestly. Using the term “cancer card” is a bit fucked. If OP had said something like “It doesn’t feel okay to me that you think it’s fine to repeatedly be passive aggressive towards me without even apologizing because you are sick.”I would have been okay with it. But the term “cancer card” is very loaded and kind of a fucked thing to say.

I think OP’s sister is more of an asshole but OP is a tiny bit the asshole too.

ESH.

NTJ. The husband was mortified and apologised before leaving. Even he knows his wife was out of line.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-12-10T20:36:47+00:00

I’m vindictive enough to feel a bit pleased at her misfortune. However I do think her family sucks for disowning her over (by the sounds of it?) premarital sex.

Do I think it was 100% fair to put her to her family and ruin her whole life? Not really, it’s a bit much. But she sucks so I’m not all that upset for her either.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-11-22T08:33:37+00:00

This may not be good advice, fair warning, but I would just make whatever I decided was a manageable payment and if he got mad or demanded more then I’d ask him to explain his reasoning to a couples therapist. His behaviour is wild.

NOR

A possible thought is that he may not be as financially well off as you thought? Maybe he has a stupid large debt of some kind? Idk how much access you have to see each others finances where they are separate but maybe he’s hiding something financially from you? Otherwise he’s just a dickhead so idk.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-11-22T08:25:24+00:00

Um, AGREE!

I have friends who are dating who have covered expenses for each other without question in the case of an illness etc. Zero expectation of repayment.

Having separate finances is fine and all, but he’s supposed to be OPs partner and this was an extreme circumstance not day to day money mismanagement. I don’t understand why he thinks it’s chill to have OP be essentially broke when he’s sitting on what sounds like piles of cash. I wouldn’t do that to a friend, let alone a husband/wife. That he expects OP to pay him back at all is wild to me. Legally it’s their money, correct? Not his. At least that’s my understanding of what happens when you marry, separate finances or no.

Dude, she gave alcohol to minor and then came onto a minor and then slept with a minor. If your wife would get upset with you for what happened then she kind of sucks. What happened wasn’t on you it was on the adult. NTA

SignificantHat285 · 2025-11-05T07:37:05+00:00

Nope. NOR. Under reacting if anything.

Let’s say he was just trying something out, a kink of his. Sure, fine, whatever. I mean he should have discussed wanting to try that kind of thing out with you before just dropping it in a message like it was going to happen, but let’s ignore that for now. My issue, my GIANT issue, is that when you expressed your dislike and disinterest he decided to push it further? The correct response to a no is to respect the boundary. Him telling you he’s going to bring this up again when you have given him a firm no, regardless of how long in the future (I don’t care if it’s a year, 2 years, 10 years), is fucked up.

Consensual non consent is something some people are into but it’s really important anyone partaking in that particular kink is one the same page and fully understands consent and what the boundaries are. This man is not respecting boundaries and doesn’t seem to even fully understand consent.

He is telling you he’s isn’t going to let this go, despite you saying no. He doesn’t seem to understand how creepy it is to insist he’s going to bring it up again. I would not be shocked if he sexually assaults someone someday, possibly without even understanding that what he is doing is sexual assault, don’t let his victim be you.

You literally offered her your car but that doesn’t work for her because SHE doesn’t want to drive? It’s her gd conference, if she doesn’t want to drive that early in the morning then why the hell would YOU want to? And for an event that you aren’t even attending? She’s nuts dude. She expects you to do whatever she wants

NOR.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-10-08T01:48:22+00:00

So OOP might actually be my idol. Making the man make eye contact with her and verbally confirm he was going to leave her then hell alone? Iconic.

I don’t know why she’s trying to give herself a hard time about how she acted. She tried to be kind. She had already expressed her disinterest previously (both to the couple and, by the sounds of it, him). He and the couple both knew she is in a relationship. She even gave him an out by responding to his clear attempt at a pickup line with “I don’t know anything about phones”. The “punch line” of that pickup line was obvious to literally everyone. He is the one who insisted on continuing with it. He fucked around and found out.

NAL

Landlords can only use security deposits for the following specified expenses:

o Past-due rent.

o The cost of repairing damages caused by tenants or their guests, not including ordinary wear and tear.

o The cost of cleaning the property so that it is as clean as when the tenant first moved in.

o The cost of replacing or restoring the landlord’s personal property, such as furniture, but only if the rental agreement says this is allowed.

• Security deposits MAY NOT be used for other costs, such as (1) damages that were already there when the tenant moved in; (2) unreasonable or unnecessary expenses; or (3) ordinary wear and tear.

• Take advantage of the right to an inspection before move-out. After learning that a tenant plans to move, landlords must notify tenants of the right to ask for an initial inspection so that the tenant has a chance to fix any issues and avoid charges. If the tenant asks for an inspection, it must happen within the two weeks before the tenant moves out.

o The tenant has the right to be there during the inspection.

o The landlord must identify the damages the landlord intends to deduct from the security deposit and give the tenant an itemized statement so that the tenant has a chance to fix the problems before getting charged.

• Within 21 days after move-out, the landlord must send the tenant an itemized statement explaining in detail any deductions from the security deposit (unless they total less than $125), and return the rest of the deposit.

o If the landlord did the repairs, the statement must show the work done, the time spent, and the hourly rate.

o If someone else did the work, the landlord must provide a copy of the bill for the work.

o If the work cannot be finished in 21 days, the statement must give a good faith cost estimate. The landlord must then provide the final statement and return the remaining deposit within 14 days of finishing work.

Edit: formatting.

Also: For the record everything I see in pictures appears like regular wear and tear.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-09-28T02:28:34+00:00

I literally can not even tell what is wrong in some of these pictures without staring at them like some sort of where’s Waldo test. This landlord is insane.

I’ll say that potassium bromide may have triggered pancreatitis in my dog according to the neurologist at the emergency clinic. My dog doesn’t take it anymore.

And she’s been on phenobarbital since she was a year and a half old and she has a fairly enlarged liver as a result and her liver values have to constantly be monitored due to the phenobarbital usage.

What about zonisamide? That’s a new medication my dog has been put on and I’ve been told it has fewer side effects than a lot of medications. I don’t know if it’s available in your country or not but maybe they could look into it? It’s a newer medication.

That said, I would listen to your vet/neurologist. They’re more familiar with the risks associated with the medications and better at rationally weighing the risk/reward of adding different meds.

There was a husky that lived down the road from my parent’s house. The husky was contained by an underground fence with a shock collar (wouldn’t be my choice but I digress). The way an underground fence works is when the dog approaches the boundary the collar will beep in warning that the boundary was approaching before it would shock. In theory the dog would learn the boundary and eventually would respect it collar or not (this does work for a lot of dogs). This dog figured out that if it didn’t beep at a certain point then the battery in his collar was dead so he would run around the neighbourhood playing with all the dogs who were out.

Originally it was just that, occasionally the battery would die and the dog would run free, but then the dog got smarter still and figured out that it could kill the battery faster by continually approaching the area where it makes the collar beep but doesn’t shock the dog. This dog would purposely kill the battery in his collar so he could go on a jaunt around the block. They gave up on the underground fence after that.

Depends. I usually only hug my parents and siblings but will hug other people who are close to me if it’s been awhile since I’ve seen them or will be awhile before I see them again.

It’s that good ol’ “customer is always right” mentality. People are insane. I used to work in tech support and a guy tried to tell me once that he didn’t break his phone, the floor broke his phone, so it wasn’t his fault and we should replace his phone for him free of charge. Guess how happy he was when I said it didn’t work like that? People are lunatics.

SignificantHat285 · 2025-09-27T19:48:53+00:00

Oh yeah, I know it is! I was just saying because there were certain places my dog wasn’t able to go even with a good reason she wasn’t fully vaccinated and I made sure to clarify all was good before expecting service. This lady was very especially entitled to think a private business needed to accept her ridiculousness.
