The rules are simple:

- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

replace dog with baby.
Hahaha
sigh
Wife bad 😂😂😂
Certain dogs have uses, like for shepherding sheeps. Most don't, though
Companionship is a major use.
But then they choose the other person in the home..
Bribery works wonders.
I keep mine as emergency rations. That's why I have weiner dogs
You sly dog.
Slay*
Pretty sad how this behaviour is normalized: "nag until you get your way" is dysfunctional behaviour
If it is something that is within reach of your lifestyle and means and you say no just because...it is normal that the person asking will not be dissuaded until you both engage in a constructive way.

I'm currently on phase 2 of her plan with my wife, but I'm meeting limited success. Does it only work once?
Get a cat.
No.
Not even for me, I like cats and some of them even tolerate me. My wife is super allergic though. Like throat closing and everything.
No thanks. We prefer free time and not being slaves to other beings' needs. Also we got more interesting hobbies that can surely take that extra cash 😁
Basically me and my wife and how “we” now own two cats.
Ahahaha
And let me guess - the cats are more attached to you than to her?
Oh no, they like her way more.
The dogs at least?
Oh the dog likes me more. But I had the dog before me and my wife even started dating and im the one that feeds and walks her. My dog loves my wife just fine though.
That's how I ended up with 2 cats, 2 dogs, 2 kids and 2 live-in in-laws.
How much work are the in-laws?
Yes.
As long as you change their litter and feed them then it’s not too bad.
What to do when they keep barking at the neighbours?
You could have them castrated, that seems to do wonders.
