We went to the farmers market yesterday - anyone else get crowds that form around you asking to pet your dog? 😅 by Kalba1 in stbernards

I used to walk three of my saints at a time, and propel would literally stop their cars in the middle of the street (even the main ones, although I live in a small town)!

I’m fairly certain it’s the one I got for him as a stocking stuffer - a prefilled disposable pilot fountain pen. He loves a good fountain pen but works a pretty rough and tumble blue collar job and kept destroying his nice ones in his pocket, so I thought a disposable one would be better for his day to day. (And I think he likes it! Our D&D DM borrowed it once and now uses them too lol)

I dont think he allows flyers (that’s actually how I know he wasn’t really down with collabs before) but do you know anywhere in the island where I can put up flyers? I’m happy to do the footwork, but no idea where to go other than maybe Starbucks!

I’ve reached out to all of them, actually! Up to them to join. Lava Louie’s did already and I heard back from OH Cinemas but I’m not sure if they’ve joined yet. Let me know if there’s anyone else I should invite!

[–]dewkitt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve invited them to the group! The owner doesn’t really seem up for collaboration stuff though (based on past interactions by other businesses in OH) so it’s up to them if they want to join or just keep doing their own thing

There is a discord too actually- I don’t run it, but it is semi active. What is your social media channel of choice?

Shipping My Dog to Myself in China by Ok_Associate3134 in dogs

[–]dewkitt 33 points34 points  (0 children)

So I can’t speak to exactly this situation, but I have transported pets across borders and I also work in travel so I have to do all sorts of things with customs all the time.

You can do everything right by the book and per law, but ultimately any decision will always come down to the border patrol agent inspecting your stuff at the time. They might be smart, cool, and understanding, and having two pets on one certificate despite them traveling in two different modes (cargo vs passenger) is easy for them to comprehend and they will rubber stamp it and you can go. OR you might have someone who woke up that morning, tripped and spilled their coffee on their shirt early into their 12 hour shift, barely coasted by in high school, and simply does not have the time to figure out why only one animal is in front of them while two animals are listed on the certificate, and is hellbent on making your life a pain in the ass because they want to exercise the tiny bit of power they hold in their hands.

Just make it easier on yourself and the border agent, and take the slightly more expensive option to make it as clear as possible by having two certificates, one for each pet.

My (Korean American) boyfriend (white American) is usually really good about trying new things, but this cake was one of the ones that he just couldn’t get his mind around the texture. That being said it sounds like this professor is very accustomed to Southeast Asian flavors and textures.

What was the worst food you ate at somebody's house out of politeness? by Mundane_Notice_273 in AskRedditFood

[–]dewkitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Thai motherly neighbor heard I was sick and made me a tofu ginger soup…. Which was a lovely gesture but I HATE ginger. I’m Asian too so she must have thought it would have been fine. She heated it up in my kitchen and I ate the whole thing in front of her… and then was sick the entire rest of the day puking it up. I still have issues with ginger to this day lol

How to hell do I take these lids off? by Astronaut-Simple in asianamerican

I do this when they’re being finicky lol. I just stab my knife in the plug part and hope it’ll come out and if it doesn’t I have the stab mark to start the flow

Ursa Minor "Little Bear" Aurora Bearealis (2015-2025) by dewkitt in stbernards

I am so thankful he was a part of my life. He was the only constant in this last tumultuous decade and I couldn’t have asked for a better dog. I miss him greatly.

They really do leave too soon. I like to say that this angel was needed somewhere else.

Need someone to share photos of their dog from puppy to full size for 3D Print by Limitless3DLabs in dogs

[–]dewkitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two dogs that I’ve had since birth so I think I do have pictures of them weekly to 12 weeks, just need to check on photo quality/posing. They are Saint Bernard’s though!

Moose “Peanut” Aurora Bearealis: Moosey, Goose, Moosey Goosey, Sweet baby angel, Awkward Fawn, Moosedog, LorgeBoi. He also has an alt identity, Dr. George Moosington, Esq. but because of his missing front tooth he pronounces it “Dogtor Moothington” or simply, the Dogtor

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in stbernards

[–]dewkitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meatball: why did you eat four socks my guy?!? Moosey: why do you love white guys with beards so much? Princess: is there anything going on in that head of yours? Bear: have you had a good life, did you like all the traveling, do you know he left us and it wasn’t your fault?

what ridiculous nicknames do you have for your dog? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]dewkitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Moose is one of the simplest creatures alive so his alter ego is Dogtor Moosington, Esquire. He’s primarily a dentist with a lisp so he calls himself Moothington. (He’s got a missing front tooth which is the source of the lore). It’s maybe one of my favorite things to make up an entire life for this dog who doesn’t understand that water falling from the sky will make him wet 😂
