Ever see a dog or cat run across the room super fast for no reason? Zoomies.
I believe it refers to the desire to suddenly start running about in a senseless and thoughtless manner
How does it feel to live with abundant space
you forgot the random junk room
I see the bathroom has a flush in a water closet with a door as opposed the flush being in the same room as your bathing area and sink. I wish American houses would do this more, it’s just more hygienic
Everyone just needs to make it a habit to close the lid before flushing.
And for those public toilets with auto-flush and no lid, I get around it by draping TP over the sensor while I do my business, flush it manually when I'm done and the door is open so I can quickly jump outside the stall.
I close the lid before flushing so the mist doesn’t spray around, and then I clean the seat with my hand bidet water but I always feel like that’s not enough. Maybe I am being a germaphobe haha. Eh it’s not a big deal
then I clean the seat
New fear/obsession unlocked.
For some reason I read 'zombies', was wondering what on earth you were planning.
They need some shufflin' space.
You seem to know how to have fun
Ever heard of parks?
Zoomies happen for us as soon as we get home from the walk in the park, never in the park. Hardwood floors. Tom n Jerry and Loony Tunes creators obviously had dogs.
For a cat? 🐈
I genuinely assumed this was for humans...
My dog would do over half his zoomies going over the furniture. May as well spread it around to get him more exercise.
Is outside lava? Or is opening an exterior door not an option?
Ok do one with a bed that fills the empty space for when the 'cule is all in one place
I don't think I can afford this
My dogs approve
I've moved to a colder climate, so wear socks indoors now. The dog and I have drift king battles. He has a cool signature move where he sprints across the lounge room onto his bed and slides it halfway into the kitchen. But I got him on hallway slides to the bathroom where such pace can only be achieved with superior control.
Check into adult daycare for an extended weekend, for an upgrade to grippy socks. 👀
This, but for playing VR games
Beautiful!
The first Sims living room.
My child needs this. We haven’t found a space yet that they can’t outzoom.
That's what a yard is for.
In some places you'd be lucky to get more than about 60 days per year when you could use the yard.
Winter, rain, 30+ degree summers, etc.
Well that my friend is what moving is for
That's nowhere near enough space! You're going to need SEVERAL square yards!
I have it on good authority (watching my dog) that zoomies are better when you can dart and weave between furniture.
We need an Olympic sport that's just track hurdles but replaced with scattered furniture arrangements, and the competitors need to weave through without banging a shin on a coffee table.
There needs to be two phases though.. day and night
Unrelatable, kitchen is almost separated.
And that bedroom, might as well be a studio with a walk-in closet
Designed by that famous architect Felix Catman.
Plenty of room for some manoeuvering
