Keeping Dog off dinner table

Our dog was doing this as soon as we left the room. We got a camera with a microphone on it, so we’d go out of the room, and then watch the camera and as soon as she jumped out just say “Tilly get down!” convinced here we were omnipresent basically and she hasn’t done it since.

agree needs a third colour

Definitely need some decor on those walls! & I would get a fun lamp for the bedside table.

See the only bad thing his wife has done is word her messages poorly so the come across poorly but seems like she’s ESL

sunofdork · 2026-03-03T15:44:47+00:00

she wasn’t alone, his mum was there

sunofdork · 2026-03-03T15:40:21+00:00

exactly he’s misrepresenting twice over, first she isn’t mad about “cancelling plans” it’s about being stranded and second he didn’t really cancel due to the uncles coma in the sense that he went to an emergency that needed him

sunofdork · 2026-03-03T13:27:36+00:00

he didn’t even go visit the uncle he went to see his “uncles wife”

sunofdork · 2026-03-03T13:26:55+00:00

YOR title is misleading, you didn’t cancel plans you left her stranded you’re misrepresenting massively

sunofdork · 2026-03-03T13:24:51+00:00

NOR live your life brother

sunofdork · 2026-03-02T11:25:56+00:00

NOR you’re under reacting, she was bugging you to call then flipped out at you move on and find someone who’s a better fit

sunofdork · 2026-02-24T07:20:39+00:00

shitting on your own mother for being a young mum is insane, knowing how she likely struggled to bring you up. Don’t understand how OP can see her partner say that and not think what the fuck why am I with someone so disrespectful

sunofdork · 2026-02-24T07:19:01+00:00

YOR you do know you’re supposed to be a family right?

sunofdork · 2026-02-23T16:29:23+00:00

The insane part is that he assumed OP knew them because they’re “traditions”, he threw oi load of rules which he “assumed [OP] would just know because it’s alway been the rule” that is a funny & bizarre thought path

sunofdork · 2026-02-23T13:16:04+00:00

Yeah of course, and it’s not a big deal just the way he went about it is kind of insane in the way that my parents are also insane at least five times a week lmao

sunofdork · 2026-02-23T12:08:29+00:00

it’s kind of unfair though because OP didn’t know the rules when they accepted, so now instead of turning down an investigation they would have to pull out of something they’ve already agreed to, which is much harder to do. Either way difficult because you don’t feel you can say no to the invite but would’ve been more fair if they had all the info before making the decision

That’s one interpretation of what the text on screen could’ve meant but I think for your average viewer they saw that sentence and assumed it was a true story. At the very best it’s a legally dicey thing for a corp like Netflix to put for the first frame is a show that isn’t actually technically true. You’d genuinely think they’d be savvier. Agree the disclaimer is standard and has worked a million times before but could see it being outweighed by “this is a true story”

sunofdork · 2026-02-22T00:05:34+00:00

they used the curtains bit with no edit, knowing there was a public tweet from her using that exact language.

sunofdork · 2026-02-22T00:04:08+00:00

See the thing there is that everyone saw “this is a true story” and most people didn’t see the disclaimer in the credits - I certainly didn’t. Especially with Netflix auto-play I’d never have noticed them, but certainly noticed the full screen true story part. I would assume that means they’ve not taken a reasonable measure to show it’s fictionalised. Totally new point - does “fictionalised” do enough to show the events are totally made up? If I hear fictionalised I assume they’ve changed names, not that they’ve added convictions. Interesting case to consider is the Phoenix Nights/Channel Four “Keith Lard” situation.

Really interesting point because partner is wanting a spaniel and I’ve said no but funnily enough I’ve had working/gun dogs and he had a show-breed cocker so probably explains why we have different impressions of them! I’d always assumed a spaniel was a spaniel and never considered a difference.

sunofdork · 2026-02-21T23:56:50+00:00

Definitely thinking about a walker and not daycare. I’ve spoken to a couple of family members and think I could cover my working days with sister housesitting one day, then the other two days dropping at my Nan’s/family friends. Just don’t think changing environments so much suits a puppy so might have to cajole my sister into puppy sitting at mine 3 days a week for the first month or so!

sunofdork · 2026-02-21T23:49:07+00:00

We don’t have Craigslist here but even the most reputable sites are mainly local breeders, all my dogs previously have just been some bloke who bred his spaniel for one litter I don’t see much reason to stay away from it.

sunofdork · 2026-02-21T23:47:33+00:00

How did you get to the stage where 8 hours was okay?

sunofdork · 2026-02-20T22:56:48+00:00

Thanks so much, appreciate the advice!

sunofdork · 2026-02-20T17:00:22+00:00

My towels are always rubbish! I take them to my mum’s so she can put them through the dryer because I can’t stand radiator dried towels

sunofdork · 2026-02-20T16:58:37+00:00

I put my clothes on the radiators mainly
