They like to do this always after licking their ass and balls.
If you make them wait a few minutes the germs will disappear
Sure, you just have to keep believing it
Almost all of my bones are inside my body
Am I the only one getting irrationally grossed out by people letting dogs lick their faces ?
Let me say… I work in healthcare. I clean human waste. I’m not easily grossed out.
I wouldn’t let a dog lick my face.
I also work in healthcare and deal with lots of poop and blood and dogs licking my face doesn’t gross me out. Cats on the countertop do squick my out a bit though.
You’re not wrong to be grossed out, but dog kissies give me the big dopamine so I allow it.
It’s more than grossed out in fact, it’s a deep disgust that makes me nauseous. I can’t stand to even look at the image in this post.
But I’m glad it’s fine for you, I wish I was in the same boat.
I don’t think it’s very irrational to be grossed out by that.
Idk, you probably just live an artificially clean life.
If you do any sort of manual labour you get all sorts of gross crap on you. If it’s on your hands it’s on your face a few moments later anyway.
Carcinogenic grease, random lab chemicals, who knows what the fuck from soil, lightly rotting food and bathroom grime from housework, kitchen grease whatever.
That’s why you wash your hands and face regularly through the day and shower /shrug.
I really don’t get your argument…how is me living a theorical “artificial” clean life relevant ? (Which you’re only assuming btw)
It’s like arguing that getting kicked in the balls is fine because “you probably just live in an artificially painless life, with painkillers and modern medicine”.
huh it’s not an argument it’s just my opinion. Dogs mouths are super dirty, saliva is a bit gross. If you are used to just getting dirty and clean all the time another way of getting dirty doesn’t seem that bothersome.
Like most people are grossed out by being vomited on, after you care for babies for a while or work security at a messy bar or whatever you stop being that grossed out because it happens hundreds of times. Work at a vet or on an animal farm and piss and shit getting on you stops being so nasty.
It’s not a moral judgement, just that if a pet licking you seems really gross you probably aren’t used to getting stuff on your face that you just go wipe/wash off.
Also yeah, pain seems worse because we’re not used to experiencing it, although pain is a bit special because our brains make us forget what it feels like so it’s always novel. You know how some people can just get hurt a lot and deal with it? they’re not superhuman, they just live lives with much more pain in them.
You can have opinions with arguments. That’s not mutually exclusive.
“I think [opinion] because [argument]”
In this case your opinion was just implied by your argument.
You’re taking this very seriously antiseptic boy :p
That’s where we can agree on.
Hence the “irrationally grossed out” part. It’s not a controlled thing, I’m not choosing to feel grossed out, I just do. So you can understand that your reply was akin to telling an arachophobe: “You’re probably a city dweller that’s never been to the countryside, we have them everywhere there”. It comes off as arrogant and know-it-all.
I have nothing personal against you though.
Oh psh, everybodies house is full of spiders and other friendlies. Also you can treat phobias unless they’re extremely severe.
So yes, an arachnaphobe probably hasn’t worked with spiders :p
I’m significantly afraid of heights, like woozy standing on a chair fear, hasn’t stopped me doing maintenance on a roof or riding all the horrifying giant drop rides/cross canyon flying foxes etc I come across. Fear doesn’t stop you doing stuff, you just have to do it scared.
Sorry, i’m drunk there was a point in there though, that exposure makes it possible to do stuff like work on the roof. And if I was way a lineswoman I would probably no more be afraid of heights by necessity. Humans adapt, only terminally online weirdos think you’re stuck in the condition you’re currently in.
Eh, I don’t know, I don’t have any allergies… And I think my gross lifestyle has something to do with it.
Naw, dogs are fuckin gross
Reminds me of the Zou Arc from One Piece
Brooke is probably still traumatized even today…
You know that was like a month ago for them right? So yes.
Not even a decent gaslight heh
