I'm not shy about loving dogs . I grew up surrounded by them. But while I love their energy, their penchant for unconditional love, and their undisputable cuteness, I recently discovered that there is such a thing as too much dog. When 5 huge dogs (including a Grand Pyrenees, a Mastiff-Rotteweiler mix, and a pitbull) get together, it can be overwhelming to say the least. And 3 nights of sleeping on a couch in the designated dog zone? Supremely chaotic, but you make do when visiting family. Need…

I love dogs. There's no getting around the fact that they are my favorite pets around, and I don't think anything will ever change that. I know many members of the meme community are cat people, which I respect. I wish I could be a cat person , but I don't have it in me. I don't want to beg an animal to like me, and whenever I meet a cat, I feel it is necessary. I know factually how to get a cat on my side. It's a long haul. You're not going to become a cat's best friend the first time you meet…

Bark Bark. Meow Meow. These are the classic sounds of the dog and the cat we all know and love. They are the most common pets for a reason, and that reason is that they are so rad. A dog will bark when they hear you coming out of the bathroom. A cat can stretch out to over three feet. These are iconic animals that I can't help but love with all of my heart. I understand why certain people do not want dogs or cats as pets. There is much more responsibility required for a feline or a canine than…

Not every meme is unique, and that's how it should be! Some memes work just well enough to get you to blow some air out of your nose. Some memes will make you cackle, but those are few and far between. In the meantime, it's perfectly acceptable to scroll through middling memes that aren't reinventing the wheel. As RuPaul Charles once said, "You ain't got to reinvent the wheel! The wheel is fine, girl." Nobody should be shamed for having basic taste in memes. You're probably better off for it! I…

One of the greatest movies of the 20th century is about a man who magically turns into a dog. I'm not talking about The Shaggy Dog or its remake starring Tim Allen. No, I'm referring to the greatest hidden gem Disney+ has to offer, The Shaggy D.A. As the title so cleverly suggests, it is a movie about a man who is running for District Attorney and can't stop turning into a big white fluffy dog . The best part of this movie is its action sequences. If you haven't seen the viral clip where a man…

Dr. Dolittle is one lucky dog. That man can talk to the animals, and nobody bats an eye. He has been portrayed by Rex Harrison, Eddie Murphy, and Robert Downy Jr. Clearly, when they were casting these movies, they said, “Non-legends need not apply.” Only the most advanced actors

There are so many different kinds of memes in the world. As time has gone on, we tend to veer more and more absurd in our memes to the point where internet trends the past are virtually unrecognizable. Some of us also dabble in edgelord memes that may you may or may not want your mom or your boss to see you post. However, there’s one kind of meme that I believe will never die. And that of course, is the wholesome meme. Wholesome memes work for every age demographic. They’re great for people who…

Even if you don't have a doggy of your own, you likely see dogs every day. When I'm walking to work and see an incredibly excitable puppy lunging toward me, I often feel conflicted about how to proceed. While, on the one hand, I'd love to pet the dog and give it all of the affirmations it deserves, I know most dog walkers usually don't want to get stopped by randos. It's a brutal world out there for us dog lovers without pets of our own. One of my favorite dog-related activities is looking at p…

Let's be honest. You need a laugh; I need a laugh. We all need to laugh a little bit more. We can't keep rewatching the same three seasons of Strangers With Candy until we die to get the last few giggles out of our usually unamused husks of bodies. Laughter is a force of healing, and if we don't do it enough, we're going to shrivel up and die. There are only so many 22-minute comedies you can consume in one day, especially if you are a person of the employed persuasion. Those 22-minute comedies…

Dog people have a bit of a reputation. We're known to be rowdy and love to shower our pets with praise at any chance. A dog person will get excited at their dog's most uneventful behavior. Is she licking her paw? A dog person will announce this news to the room, and if they're in the right kind of room, everyone will similarly rejoice at the dog's accomplishment. But can you help it? I mean, she's licking her paw in an incredibly adorable way. And she deserves it! In the world of memes, dogs ha…

No butt sniffing here

Being “random” used to really get you places in society. In the 2000s, randomness was a socially currenency the likes of which we had never seen before, and will probably never
