An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I'm sick and it is still snowing so I didn't do the whole patio, but did scoop two paths for the dogs to reach some grass. Can't do one because they will assume the other side would have been better and just hold it in.

Will need to redo them in a few hours when the dogs are ready to go again.

I'm sorry you have to do this while unwell, while also acknowledging that's pretty heroic. Also not leaving them outside in it, because trust me, way too many do.

Unless you have a husky haired corgi mix thing that hates how warm your elderly father in-law keeps the house.

The way snow falls off of her is really amazing when she’s finally ready to come in though. Our others used to get all clumped up, but the undercoat somehow prevents it.

We have some drifts over a foot and they don't have long legs so shoveling is necessary. I had to redo the one they picked this morning because it is still coming down, but at least they were good with it again :)

Glad for that!
