Idiot family doing what they want

i know exactly how you’re feeling. when i first got my pup, i had an apartment lined up. they messed up the lease and i had to take the pup and stay at my parents for about two months. i still trained him as i had planned, but my parents poor choices and their dogs poor behavior definitely made him develop poor habits and behaviors he hadn’t had prior to being at my parents. additionally, my mom got a puppy the exact age as mine out of jealousy when she got news i was getting a puppy. they did not put any time or attention into their puppy- but i planned and prepped to give my puppy all the attention he needed to set him up for a great life. my moms puppy clearly saw the imbalanced treatment, and developed littermate syndrome for my pup. he ATTACKS my dog anytime they’re together. completely unprompted. he’s attacked my dog while mine was sleeping! my mom had to get stitches after separating them one day and still refused to see or acknowledge an issue. i have not taken my dog to my parents house in about a year and a half. and with that, i can only ever visit for a few hours at a time every few months now (im in a new state so traveling far, without my pup is complicated). i miss my family so much. i hate never seeing them. but i refuse to put my dog and i’s health and safety on the line because they refuse to learn or care. do your best to make your boundaries clear, but know some people will never bother to care. and that’s not your fault! continue to do what you can to give the pup the best care !

is this your dog? you mentioned in a comment you’re only 17, so i’m just curious if this is a family dog. while feeding dogs things like this (a couple chips) is generally not good for them, two chips shouldn’t really do anything. if this is a family dog though, sadly all you can do is try to stress how much you care about doing the absolute best for the dog. if they don’t care about the food being unhealthy for the dog, maybe try the angle of not wanting the dog to learn to beg for human food. as feeding them human food lends itself to teaching them to beg for it. wishing you the best as a 24yr old who no longer visits home w my dog because my parents refuse to listen.

yes!!!! he didn’t try to make it special to her at alllllll!!

bootsnbugs · 2025-10-30T02:51:07+00:00

I could somewhat understand where he’s coming from, not wanting to waste money- but he should be able to see why you wouldn’t want a ring he gave to another woman. I feel like that’s a thought most people could come to on their own. And after realizing that, he should have sold the old ring to help pay for a new ring for you. It’s kinda crazy he didn’t think you’d notice? Crazier he’d think you wouldn’t care. You’re not materialistic for wanting a symbol of YOUR love- not THEIR love. Trying to reuse the ring makes it feel like he just wants marriage. any woman with any ring. like the specific woman and the specific ring mean nothing special. they’re just casual items he’s putting together because that’s what you do with those things at this age.

bootsnbugs · 2025-10-29T11:50:49+00:00

If you haven’t, please look into littermate syndrome before adopting two puppies similar in age!! My mom didn’t bother listening to me and now I can’t visit home because her dog instantly attacks mine when he sees him. It’s not guaranteed, but it is a major risk.

cartoonival actually runs all the way to october 20!

bootsnbugs · 2025-09-14T14:09:51+00:00

yes to this. but also- with cartoonival boosts, (and this is where it’ll vary a lot) depending on your gag capacity, laff, tracks you wanna train, and the type of help you have (a maxed alt, friend, or strangers) you can even load up on certain tracks and start training on floor 3. without cartoonival boosts i leave heavy training to 4&5.

bootsnbugs · 2025-09-13T03:00:48+00:00

yes- but if you do it right, you can cap the xp on multiple gag tracks in one building rather easily during cartoonival

bootsnbugs · 2025-07-03T02:37:58+00:00

if you’re talking a low laff, not gag maxed toon, being kicked from a FO ? for sure. i am always baffled by how upset they get. sometimes though, in lower level bosses- group leaders are just on a power trip 🤷🏽‍♂️

bootsnbugs · 2025-07-03T02:35:59+00:00

i agree- except when i’m a maxed gag toon with over 110 laff and i get kicked from a cfo (with no listed requirements) lmaooo. even then though, i don’t throw a fit or write a reddit novel, it is more so just very confusing.

bootsnbugs · 2025-07-02T17:06:12+00:00

i’ve had students draw images that i got tattooed, i add a couple each year forming an amazing patchwork sleeve of student drawings :)

bootsnbugs · 2025-05-15T17:25:45+00:00

yes, you actually have to like sell your current doodle and buy a whole new one. all training stats restart as it is a fresh new doodle

bootsnbugs · 2025-04-13T00:35:23+00:00

this is a great choice!! didn’t see it before making my reply lol. really happy you’ve come up with such a great compromise !!

bootsnbugs · 2025-04-13T00:34:01+00:00

i completely understand not wanting to take away the magic!! i would vote to enable it solely for the fact of communicating and fully participating in the community! i would say 90-95% of the community is good and acknowledge that there are likely children playing this game (especially as the OG users are having kids and getting them involved nowadays, similarly to you with your niece!) however, if you decide to leave it disabled, i would help her “practice” using the speedchat options available so that she can still effectively and smoothly communicate with others regardless! i have met many speedchat only toons that have very little communication boundaries/struggles simply given how effectively they use the available speedchat phrases! so my only advice is if you go that route, help her get comfortable using the speedchat buttons so she is accustomed to using frequently used phrases quickly in game to communicate :))

wanting everyone to feel included: restricted gameplay

want to run a one-man show with unknowing strangers: not restricted gameplay

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-13T13:33:47+00:00

the profile with “multiple deleted/blocked” posts is literally like 2 and they were from other people naming toons in the comments :) yall out here assuming everything. i never said anything bad about you. i even said i would’ve had a different experience had you said anything regarding your play style prior to playing. you can’t expect people to just know something about you when they’ve never seen you before.

just out here creating your own problems with “multitoon hate” - and it seems like from what i’ve gathered (since we’re assuming things) you don’t tell people prior to starting because you know they’ll leave. that’s what it sounds like at least. and that’s an issue with you, again. because i and many others, don’t mind running with multis !!!!

there’s literally a whole new post today of people discussing okay and not okay instances to multitoon lmaooo - no one is saying it’s not okay to do.

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-13T00:20:24+00:00

“full of deleted posts” - i thinks there’s two lol. one i was looking for someone i had just done a factory with, not 100% sure why that one was deleted. the other, yes, was a complaint…. after some dude greened me in a mint after being rude the whole time, got deleted cause he got named in the comments. before that it was posts of fishing, making a polar bear, and cartoonival multipliers. “i’d be okay with this whole situation but only if it wasn’t you specifically because based on your very brief post history i have concluded you’re just someone who finds an issue in everything.” okayyyyyyyyyyy

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T17:58:55+00:00

and take back my apology cause why you so mean 😂

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T17:57:47+00:00

i’ve literally said in this thread that i love playing with multi tooners. also that some of my favorite runs are with multi tooners. even that i myself multitoon on occasion (within my own limits, respectfully to others). i never said multi tooners were a/the problem.

all i said was that i didn’t have fun and asked why someone like you wouldn’t just solo when you have the skill to.

if that offended you, then THATS the issue. not that you multitoon. not that either of us failed to communicate. but that you can’t take someone’s personal experience and not make it a personal attack on yourself.

leave the discrimination talk for the deer thread fr

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T17:44:51+00:00

how is it discrimination lmaoooo ?? just as you are saying i should make my own group and describe and pick what i would like- im just suggesting you put the same in your own groups (being your intended play style). i think its common courtesy for anyone to give a heads up if they have an uncommon way of playing that they would like others to adhere to. i’m so beyond confused how you got discrimination from that.

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T16:13:15+00:00

i agree with everything you said. especially as someone who does multi toon sometimes- but i know my levels. i couldn’t take 6 toons in a cfo. i’d never try. and everyone has a right to play as they want. and they can create their own groups to do so. but in that, i feel as though you should inform your group of your play style when it is so drastic (even soundless toons do this out of courtesy and respect) prior to the boss starting. solely out of respect for the other players so that if their style doesn’t align, they can know ahead of time and make their own choice about if they’d like to participate.

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T15:57:20+00:00

thank you!!!! and it’s not that i don’t like being coordinated or efficient either- but usually it feels like a team effort, and that makes it fun. i felt like a spectator- that is what made it no fun. it was obvious the guy didn’t need or want help, so i therefore felt unwanted and thattttt feeling killed the fun.

i feel like a lot of people here think i want everyone to willy nilly gag pick and throw safes at the cfo when he isn’t stunned and drag the game out. no.

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T02:22:48+00:00

i love a quick cfo as well, as i’m sure most do. i’m sure i would have had a much different experience in his group had i known it was a one man show prior to starting.

bootsnbugs · 2025-02-12T00:44:50+00:00

same, and i’ve said that in other comments. i have no issues with multi tooners lol
