An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
Last night I attempted this, but failed miserably. I took one sweet, sweet drink from my glass, and while pondering another drink, fell back asleep while holding the glass. I gasped when cold water ran all over me, and was then left soaked and completely awake. I contemplated how I could have been successful living on this planet for decades and still fail at drinking water.
Will try again tonight.
It sounds like you have a drinking problem ... you should get help
Hi, my name is Pavidus......... And I have a problem.
*mumbles approvingly*
Had to replace the fluids you lost because something made you get up at 3AM...I probably did the same thing last night for the same reason except mine was ice water in a Yeti (insulated beverage vessel) sitting on the bathroom vanity where I leave it every night just because I know I'll want it.
I wish I could have a nice glass, instead I must use a bottle as the cat will stick her paws in a glass.
Used to always keep a nice glass of water next to me, until I got cats.
I like keeping a small cup in the bathroom for late night drinks, since it's right next to my bedroom. Our tap water isn't the best, but it's good enough that I'm willing to just drink it sometimes.
A glass of clean, cool water is one of life’s simple pleasures
When I drink water I like to liven it up with a splash of ice.
Water is most delicious when you are thirsty.
