I have it on good authority (watching my dog) that zoomies are better when you can dart and weave between furniture.

[–] 3ntranced@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

For some reason I read 'zombies', was wondering what on earth you were planning.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 15 points 4 months ago

They need some shufflin' space.

You seem to know how to have fun

Plenty of room for some manoeuvering

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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. 👀

Designed by that famous architect Felix Catman.

How does it feel to live with abundant space

[–] curiousaur@reddthat.com 8 points 4 months ago (3 children)

That's what a yard is for.

[–] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 8 points 4 months ago

That's nowhere near enough space! You're going to need SEVERAL square yards!

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] curiousaur@reddthat.com 1 points 4 months ago

Well that my friend is what moving is for

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 7 points 4 months ago (3 children)

What does "get the zoomies" mean? Not my native language.

[–] HeurtisticAlgorithm9@feddit.uk 10 points 4 months ago

I believe it refers to the desire to suddenly start running about in a senseless and thoughtless manner

[–] Jomega@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Ever see a dog or cat run across the room super fast for no reason? Zoomies.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

I don't think I can afford this

[–] MentalEdge@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 months ago
[–] Ravi 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Unrelatable, kitchen is almost separated.

[–] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

And that bedroom, might as well be a studio with a walk-in closet

[–] Dicska@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

The first Sims living room.

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

My dog would do over half his zoomies going over the furniture. May as well spread it around to get him more exercise.

[–] ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (2 children)
[–] thegreatgarbo@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

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.

[–] ClockworkOtter@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

I genuinely assumed this was for humans...

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

you forgot the random junk room

[–] negativenull@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

My dogs approve

[–] clearedtoland@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

My child needs this. We haven’t found a space yet that they can’t outzoom.

[–] APassenger@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Is outside lava? Or is opening an exterior door not an option?

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] cheesymoonshadow@lemmings.world 2 points 3 months ago

then I clean the seat

New fear/obsession unlocked.

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Ok do one with a bed that fills the empty space for when the 'cule is all in one place
