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

Thanks for this. I’ve been using a shovel and rake to clear a bit for the pup. She doesn’t love it even with a little snow. So I just bought a tarp and steaks and next snow she will be living the high life.
Dull mens club is changing my life for the better. First it got me eating delicious oranges. Now this. Incredible.
I might be on the verge of becoming interesting which I think makes me unqualified for this community. But then without the amazing support you all provide I’m sure I’ll become dull again.
I have a weiner dog who will only pee on grass. Tarp goes down, snow falls, tarp comes off, happy dog. He also has his own couch. He's got me trained rather well.
Mine is a chihuahua mutt. We are similarly trained. She has like five always on heating pads all over the house on beds and couches. She needs to be in a lap or on something warm no matter the season.
Chihuahuas are from Mexico. They get cold really easily.
