Every time I see people like “cats are evil and will never love you” I’m like bro cats are adorable losers, they rub against you and head butt into your hand when you pet them and they make a dumb vibrating noise when they’re happy and chase after moving lights and shoelaces and tuck their feet under their bodies to become a fucking cat loaf cats are great ok.
Them: Higher education isn’t a right! You have to pay tuition to go to college!
Me: But pretty much every job, even entry-level jobs, require at least a bachelor’s degree.
Them: Work an hourly job that doesn’t require a four-year degree!
Me: Ok, then can we raise the minimum wage so I can work full time and, like, live and eat and other essential functions?
Them: No! If you want to make decent money, go to college and get a degree!
Me: But…
Them: Ugh, this generation is so lazy. I think I’ll pray about it.
I bet you these dogs used to bark like crazy whenever someone approached the door. Training an animal to stop doing something is way harder than training an animal to start doing something most of the time. So, solution, train the dogs to start doing something like, say, picking up a pillow whenever someone approaches the door, and as a side effect, they don’t bark at the person because (a) they’re distracted searching for the pillow and (b) it’s kind of hard to bark when you’ve got a pillow in your mouth.
that’s seriously brilliant
My parents’ dog has a whole crate of stuffed toys, and he picks one for every visitor. The beagle toy is the default, but he will often dig through the box trying to find the right toy. He often brings me the crocodile which I bought for him, or a large frog. He also has four pigs, and those are for special friends. Only family members are greeted with the biggest toy he has, the Great Pig of Honour.
