Hey there, keep your head up. You can do anything you put your mind to. But don’t be a little shit, the world doesn’t need any more little shits. Be better.
My dad had a dog that was really smart.
Put him on sandpaper and he said ruff ruff.
Point to the exterior of a tree and he said bark bark.
Point to the top of the house and he said roof roof.
I will see my self out...
A chicken walks into a library, up the librarian and says "book." The librarian, at a loss, hands the chicken a book, which it takes under its wing and walks away. A bit later it comes back and sets the book down and walks up to the librarian and says, "Book, book." The librarian, starting to question her own sanity hands them two more books and the chicken leaves. Sure enough, twenty or so minutes later the chicken returns and drops the two books and comes to the librarian and says, "Book, book, book." And the librarian obliges but this time as the chicken leaves the librarian takes her lunch and decides to follow the chicken, across the road, down a side street, down an alley and up a flight of stairs to a set of apartments. The chicken goes into one of the apartments and the librarian can see, thru the window as the chicken takes the book to a very small bed with a frog in it. The frog has a little cast on his foot and a bandage on his head and the chicken holds each book up to the frog and the frog says, "Reddit, reddit, reddit."
I like how you can tell how old this joke is from the telegraph office.
Like you could easily update it to the dog ordering flowers with a personalised greeting or something but you don't need to :)
One of the earliest examples of bar jokes is Sumerian (c. 4500-1900 BC), and it features a dog: "A dog walked into a tavern and said, 'I can't see a thin. I'll open this one'". The humor of it is probably related to the Sumer way of life and has been lost, but the words remain.
This building and its surrounds are the gold standard for what a developer should be required to do if given access to a prime peice of real estate like this. At least, in my opinion.
They were given a prime peice of our waterfront boardwalk, which is really the most important peice of our city. It's our main tourist draw and also a main attraction for locals. I believe it's also the longest continuosly walkable waterfront boardwalk in the world (or some such stat).
When the city announced they were letting a developer build a hotel/office building on it, people were pissed. When they found out it was a super luxury hotel that most people here couldn't afford and that the offices were high end lawyers and such, people were even more pissed.
Then during the several year construction they blocked off the walkable boardwalk causing you to talk a detour around it and rejoin the waterfront on the other side. People pissed.
Long story short, when it finally opened, the entire length of the walkable boardwalk remained, and this part was probably the nicest part of the whole thing. They created unique public gathering space that, while different from the rest of the boardwalk, very much fit with its surroundings. There are several art installations that all reference Halifax's maritime history (fishing, sailing, pirating, etc.) Many of the outside walls are rust colored and when you get up close you realize they are imprinted with maps of the surrounding fishing areas and sea routes, as well as stories of days gone by.
They not only maintained the existing public space but improved it in immeasurable ways.
Should it be a luxury hotel? Who knows, it's certainly up for debate, but if it was going to be, this is absolutely what should be required.
This city is growing rapidly and its been developers vs locals at every turn for the last 10 years. This is one of the few examples of a win-win situation.
I agree with this assessment. The details when you are up close are where this building/development shines. They did an amazing job with it frankly.
Also to those saying “it needs to be more green”. Of course it does it was just built… but increasing the amount foliage/warmth takes time so I would expect that it will get cozier over time.
Shops and a hotel
Edit: this is the library in Halifax though

But yeah, once those trees start blooming I'm sure it creates a cozy vibe.
Ahh I didn't know Beagles didn't like water! But as a mom of a treeing walker coonhound can confirm they are obsessed with food more than any other breed I've ever had. I had to get him a special bowl that keeps him from gobbling it down lol. And, yes he hates water.
Same! We have this little rock pathway that he only uses to avoid getting wet 🤣 Never knew hounds hated water so much. Giving him a bath is utterly exhausting. He spreads his legs out when I try to put him in the bath tub. Fights me the entire time lol.
My little one hates that. Won’t step in the grass in the morning. My 13 year old couldn’t care less, just wants to pee and sniff for rabbits. Ps…they both love water
They just don’t like deep water. Our beagle is happy enough to prance through every single puddle she finds on her walk, so long as she keeps her feet on the ground. She will swim in a pinch, though, but not her favourite thing.
Not a mix, purebreds get super fat after they get fixed if their owners don't take their lower activity level into account.
That dog is 40 pounds of pure beagle.
I’ve had senior beagles and this is true. Their food drive is insane and often outstrips their activity interest. It’s a major undertaking keeping a beagle over 10 years old in svelte shape.
Don't forget they will get into tons of mischief if they're hungry too so you overfeed them to keep them from trying to destroy the house because they know food is somewhere
I’m skeptical it would work for any beagles I’ve had or known. They’ll find mischief no matter what and their food drive is insane (even when they’re stuffed- which I’ve found is almost never) so overfeeding would just fatten the little porkers up and make worse health problems later in our case.
But hey, if it worked for you, who am I to judge?
Why aren't more people talking about the snake?? (I was thinking an eel, which is just the snake of the sea (even though there are actual sea snakes) )
Doggo never gave up, determined little fella. I love the frustration tippy taps in between almost getting it and the wave taking it a bit further away, but then snaps right back to trying to get it lol.
Beagles do not like water. Put them in a boat and they will literally jump in the water to escape the water. I didn't say they were bright.
Source: Beagle owner.
Fellow beagle owner…mine will give me a stare that says I’ve offended her ancestors if she gets wet…if it’s raining outside and she goes out.. she punishes me by drying off In the middle of the bed…went shake off until she is in the bed…like damn dog, I can’t control the weather
Some dogs love swimming, others hate it more than cats. My beagle hates it, German shepherd-Rot mix hates it, but Labrador LOVES water—can’t get him out of the pool.
My Golden/lab mix LOVED it, my goldendoodle liked it, my Shetland sheepdog didn’t like it, my Maltese HATED it, and my super mutt (border collie, German Shepard, chow chow, leonberger, Great Pyrenees, Mexican street dog mix) is indifferent to water. If he’s in he’s not bothered. If he’s out, he’s not dying to go in or anything.
My cocker spaniel mix absolutely hated water. She'd pee on the sidewalk or driveway if there was heavy dew on the grass. Baths were time for passive resistance - washing her tummy? Time to lay down & go completely limp. Then she'd get super happy & excited & tear around the house when it was over LMAO
There's a fucking dildo in the water, I love to swim and I wouldn't jump in that shit either. Just grab that dong with your mouth and be on your merry way.
Why do some dogs not like water and some love it? Always confuses me. I’ve had lots of dogs, lots of rescue dogs - and like 20% hate leaving water, one is in my pool every time she goes out, the others absolutely hate it.
That was intense lol
Even got an audience!

Missed you on Father's Day, dad
Hey there, keep your head up. You can do anything you put your mind to. But don’t be a little shit, the world doesn’t need any more little shits. Be better.
This was verry encouraging to nut to.
Be Best! :/
>Missed you on Father's Day, dad He had just gone out to buy some smokes, boyo
That joke was really ruff.
I dunno, it had me howling.
My dad had a dog that was really smart. Put him on sandpaper and he said ruff ruff. Point to the exterior of a tree and he said bark bark. Point to the top of the house and he said roof roof. I will see my self out...
no no keep going
Showed him a canine and he said woof woof
Showed him some acorns and he said deez nuts

And when all was and done, Georgie had his prized…thing.
🎵 That thiiiing 🎵
Dogs only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting
I'm just glad grandma got her dildo back. Those thing are expensive, especially for a pensioner.
Are we just gonna pretend the dog didn't fish out a dildo?
Was that a dildo?

This building and its surrounds are the gold standard for what a developer should be required to do if given access to a prime peice of real estate like this. At least, in my opinion.
Never heard of this place, why do you think so? Also, those steps look amazingly clean for being submerged all the time.
They were given a prime peice of our waterfront boardwalk, which is really the most important peice of our city. It's our main tourist draw and also a main attraction for locals.

thats not even a real picture. wtf?
What actually is the building? I hope it's something cool like a library
Shops and a hotel Edit: this is the library in Halifax though https://halifax.bibliocommons.com/events/uploads/images/full/b35da66aaec1711ddf7aba30be6746c7/central-exterior.jpg

You say depressing but the image you linked looks v aesthetically pleasing lol, don't doubt weather plays a part though.
I think it looks too industrial colorwise. And as I said, more green stuff would be great, but I also have no idea about the surroundings.
It’s the architect that’s the true genius in my opinion.
Yep!
Seeing Halifax on reddit is always a trip lmao.
Yes
Yes, I think it is. Halifax resident as well?
Was going to ask the same haha, it really is recognizable eh?
Love the Halifax waterfront and down town (Spring Garden etc)
The amount of fucking stress I’m experiencing right now…..
For real though. Someone take off your dang shoes and help the doggo!
Nah, at that point the dog needed to do it himself on principle.
Happy Cake Day!
Happy Cake Day to you, too! 🎂
Too stressful. At least the good doggo fetched mamas strap on.
Lol fr what is that? I though they were anal beads lmao
Why the fuck did this give me anxiety
Do you want to talk about it?
Me too, but it was mainly anytime the dog got close and the humans made those awwww noises.
Beagles hate water. Beagles live for food. This is quite the conundrum for this hound. 😂
Ahh I didn't know Beagles didn't like water! But as a mom of a treeing walker coonhound can confirm they are obsessed with food more than any other breed I've ever had. I had to get him a special bowl that keeps him from gobbling it down lol. And, yes he hates water.
My hound hates if the grass has dew drops on it. He won’t touch it and looks at me like somehow *I* made the grass wet. Beagles are goobers.
Same! We have this little rock pathway that he only uses to avoid getting wet 🤣 Never knew hounds hated water so much. Giving him a bath is utterly exhausting. He spreads his legs out when I try to put him in the bath tub. Fights me the entire time lol.
My little one hates that. Won’t step in the grass in the morning. My 13 year old couldn’t care less, just wants to pee and sniff for rabbits. Ps…they both love water
There are some that like it but in general, it’s pretty rare for the breed. Even rain can be a hardship. 😂
I don’t think that’s food I think it’s a dildo.
I thought it was just a chew toy
Anything is a chew toy if you're brave enough.
Anything is a dildo if you’re brave enough, also
that's the joke
What's the difference?
The price
Ones for pleasure and the other is for ..... pleasure? 🤔
Lmao my dogs have so many toys that look like sex toys 🤣 We have this long ribbed rubber one we actually call the dido toy.
That’s what I was expecting
Came here to point out the dildo.
They just don’t like deep water. Our beagle is happy enough to prance through every single puddle she finds on her walk, so long as she keeps her feet on the ground. She will swim in a pinch, though, but not her favourite thing.
Didn’t know this was common for beagles! Explains why my bagel (bass-beagle) will absolutely not mess w. any water whatsoever!
Is this Halifax??
Yep!
I KNEW IT. Saw the stairs, googled Sapori (been a while since I've been home). An epic struggle, well documented!
Honestly, they make a solid pizza slice at Sapori! One of the most underrated in Halifax imo.
I'll be sure to check it out, as I plan to head down to the Maritime Museum when I visit in July! Thanks for the suggestion.
I thought it was a harrier. Which is what my dog is in case you wanted to know.
Theyre talking about the city the video was shot in LOL
Haha. I just wanted an excuse to talk about my dog.
...is he a good boy?
She is the bestest girl in the whole world. She gives the softest kisses and whines when you ignore her for 5 minutes.
Well? Tax is due my friend.
[sorry for the delay. ](https://imgur.com/3tZVAzn)

This is excellent news and my day is immeasurably improved, thank you both.
Glad to be of service. As is Sophie.
No this is a dog
No this is patrick
Yes
This is a Wend- Never mind.
Fuck yeah it is! Poor dog probably had the shits for weeks after drinking that much harbour water
Ok but what is that?
A dog
👍
It was a gelatinous purple dildo and you know it
Lolz. I was looking for this comment. So far down.
Don't understand why this is not the top comment
Came here to comment that that was clearly a dildo. Was not disappointed.
when he pulled it out and it was translucent and purple my first thought was ohhhhh, this video just took a turn lol.
Looked like a chew toy.
[удалено]
Definitely looks like a dildo.
What’s the difference?
About $30-$40 dollars.
That’s not how you use it.
It’s a dog. Looks like a beagle ~~mix~~, standing on steps surrounded by water. It’s interested in something floating just out of its grasp.
That’s not a mix. That’s pure beagle. I’ve had beagles for forty years and that there is a straight tubby beagle.
I’m sorry for the mistake
No worries my dude
How do you know the dog is straight?
His tinder profile says so
I love beagles but don't think I have the lifestyle to own one. :(
Not a mix, purebreds get super fat after they get fixed if their owners don't take their lower activity level into account. That dog is 40 pounds of pure beagle.
I've never met an older beagle that wasn't fat as fuck
I've only met one appropriate weighted senior beagle. I've met dozens of beagles.
I’ve had senior beagles and this is true. Their food drive is insane and often outstrips their activity interest. It’s a major undertaking keeping a beagle over 10 years old in svelte shape.
We've got an older one as well. Listening to her eat is upsetting.
Like listening to someone snoring in a bowl of pea soup
Don't forget they will get into tons of mischief if they're hungry too so you overfeed them to keep them from trying to destroy the house because they know food is somewhere
I’ve never been able to overfeed a beagle. Their appetite seems endless
Absolutely. I meant feed more than they need to quiet their exploration and mischief
I’m skeptical it would work for any beagles I’ve had or known. They’ll find mischief no matter what and their food drive is insane (even when they’re stuffed- which I’ve found is almost never) so overfeeding would just fatten the little porkers up and make worse health problems later in our case. But hey, if it worked for you, who am I to judge?
You must go to some interesting websites
Seniorbeaglesmeet.com is my homepage
My 14 year old beagle is 24 lbs!
can confirm, i own a moderately fat beagle (who is gradually getting thinner)
There was also a snake in the water
Water.
Purple Dildo?
Bingo. Or Bungo. Whichever
A beagle mix chasing a stick next to a Florida moccasin. Correction, an *incredibly lucky* beagle mix chasing a stick next to a Florida moccasin.
Those are steps
A purple boner
A roll of condoms?
I you have to ask you can't afford it
"Fuck you Susan, don't clap for me! You KNOW you coulda helped."
I just commented the exact same thing without looking at the comments lol
Fucking Susan from Halifax the dildo dog
I was on the edge of my seat holding my breath. This is the most dramatic post I've seen all day!
[удалено]
“Get mummy’s dildo, get it! Gooood booooy!”
Ngl I thought it was a dildo, too lol.
A dildo. We neve refer to it as *your* dildo.
*wobbly sausage*
This better not awaken anything in me.
That is a snake in the water right?
Looks like it, but I think it’s seaweed. This is the Atlantic Ocean, not aware of any sea snakes out this way.
That's what it looked like to me
I also thought it was a snake
Why aren't more people talking about the snake?? (I was thinking an eel, which is just the snake of the sea (even though there are actual sea snakes) )
Doggo wins
Doggo never gave up, determined little fella. I love the frustration tippy taps in between almost getting it and the wave taking it a bit further away, but then snaps right back to trying to get it lol.
Flawless victory.
Nobody wants to freeze their bits
Patience is key

Fellow beagle owner…mine will give me a stare that says I’ve offended her ancestors if she gets wet…if it’s raining outside and she goes out.. she punishes me by drying off In the middle of the bed…went shake off until she is in the bed…like damn dog, I can’t control the weather
Is this place flooding or are the steps actually just meant to go into the water?
They’re meant to go into the water. It’s the waterfront in downtown Halifax, NS.
Ah I see, that's cool! Thank you
Stairs are pretty damn clean considering.
They’re pretty new!
I'm just puzzled why the dog didn't jump into the water. Maybe it was told not to? Because the normal equation seems to be: Dog + water = YES.
Beagles don't like water.
Yep, my beagles hated it. My current two dogs (not beagles) also hate water 🤷♀️
My beagles don't even like going outside when there's dew on the grass because their toes will get wet.
Hah I just commented that. My dog acts like he’s walking on glass when I dare make him walk on a single wet blade of grass.
Night not like to swim. My old boy has never liked going in past his belly.
but it's day time.
Some dogs love swimming, others hate it more than cats. My beagle hates it, German shepherd-Rot mix hates it, but Labrador LOVES water—can’t get him out of the pool.
My Golden/lab mix LOVED it, my goldendoodle liked it, my Shetland sheepdog didn’t like it, my Maltese HATED it, and my super mutt (border collie, German Shepard, chow chow, leonberger, Great Pyrenees, Mexican street dog mix) is indifferent to water. If he’s in he’s not bothered. If he’s out, he’s not dying to go in or anything.
And my yellow lab can't stand it. When I bathe him, after he stops trying desperately to escape, he just stands there looking traumatized.
My cocker spaniel mix absolutely hated water. She'd pee on the sidewalk or driveway if there was heavy dew on the grass. Baths were time for passive resistance - washing her tummy? Time to lay down & go completely limp. Then she'd get super happy & excited & tear around the house when it was over LMAO
There's a fucking dildo in the water, I love to swim and I wouldn't jump in that shit either. Just grab that dong with your mouth and be on your merry way.
That made me so fuckin happy when he got it at the end
What is it
Looks like a dog
Visions of dog
Dog ahead
Dog O, dog
Halifax?
Yep
Oh my god that’s Halifax hahaha! Intense video nonetheless
Hey, I know where this is! OP, this is in Halifax right?
HALIFAX!
The MUIR in Halifax!
Dog is so overweight lol poor dog
Good doggo!
Thanks for making me smile
Why do some dogs not like water and some love it? Always confuses me. I’ve had lots of dogs, lots of rescue dogs - and like 20% hate leaving water, one is in my pool every time she goes out, the others absolutely hate it.
Ugh that was so worth the mini anxiety attack.
I really don't understand how treachery fits in here
Dogs are people pleasers with big hearts. ♥️ I'm glad he got it, but can't help but feel sorry for the little cuss for enduring all that.
This is hard to watch
Help him you monsters!!!
This gave me such an anxiety
I'm going to remove the last 5 seconds of this video and post it everywhere.
lol a blind person was complaining about these steps being a hazard while they walk their seeing eye dog along the 1.2km's of no guard rail harbor.
