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.

Love that curious raised ear. Did you also measure how much of a good boy they are?

Dog always gets that expression when the beardy dude that lives with him has one of his strange ideas, like in this case waving a blue box with a handle around. Makes no sense at all, but, humans, y'know.

He is the best boy, of course, no need to measure that. But I verified the low snoot temperature with a snoot boop.

I find your methodology intriguing. It merits a thorough peer review. Is anyone willing to boop their pupper snoot and report back on their findings? For science, of course.

So this snoot is not measured with infrared so I can’t confirm the temperature that way however upon booping the snoot I can in fact confirm it was cool and moist.

Fascinating

"3.8 goodboyes, but that's as high as the meter go..."

"3.8, not great, not terrible."

Later...

"It's not 3 goodboyes, it's fifteen thousand."
