Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI had a dream dogs developed written communication skills
And the whole time, they were just as smart as us, they just couldn't speak to us
IN my dream, dog laptops had really big keys (to accommodate their entire paw)
Strange ass dream
Betty the Beagle gave me a strange knowing look too!!

(20,176 posts)I dreamed that Taylor Swift was the unicorn in a poly relationship with me and my wife who helped me to realize that I really did love my wife (There was some doubt) and just needed some spice. (This dream was fairly PG. No nudity or sex. Other than topical discussion about polyamory, it would have been G.)
1.) I'm not married. Not even close to it. I haven't had a relationship longer than 3 months in years.
2.) Generally, I don't find T. Swift all that attractive. (I like my women brilliant, worldly and brunette...in glasses.)
3.) I'm fairly judgmental of poly-couples with substantially younger thirds. If I'd look at you and sneer for cradle-robbing as a single person...I'm not more supportive of it for coupled people. Get fun and kinky with age-appropriate people for the love of generic non-specific and imaginary deity or deities.

The novel describes a legend consisting of eight tales the pastoral and pacifist Dogs recite as they pass down an oral legend of a creature known as Man. Each tale is preceded by doggish notes and learned discussion.
An editor's preface notes that after each telling of the legend the pups ask many questions:
"What is Man?" they'll ask.
Or perhaps: "What is a city?"
Or: "What is a war?
There is no positive answer to any of these questions."
