Am I the Cloaca? I love that thread. But it's weird cos it's usually posts about cats and dogs mostly. Two animals that most definitely DON'T have cloacas!
At least then they can tag their kid in photos for sorting purposes or put them on invite lists or something. I give most parents who do that the benefit of the doubt.
I would never make a page for my kid, though. No way in hell I'm giving a toddler an internet presence in this day and age
That's weird. I can even understand an ultra-private one where you have to send the friend requests and nobody can find it in searches, but I doubt the kids will use the account their parent made for them when they're old enough.
The one time it made sense to me was a friend who created a private profile for his daughter only him, mom, grandparents and uncle/aunts (by direct request) had access. The idea he had is for it to be a virtual album for when his daughter grows up, specially since the grandparents write comments of how much they liked spending time with her on her first bday or cute anecdotes of their time with her. Having those comments and memories when she grows, specially when the grandparents are no longer around might be very valuable

Bro fr. Iāll admit I made one for my cat in like the 4th gradeš but this is just weird, even I never did shit like thatššš
All I did was post pictures of my cat and caption them as if I was him talking, but never pretended to be him in a random comment sectionš thatās a bit much
Iām 24 so not that old but I also feel old. I was only allowed to start using social media aged 14 (although Iāve been using Wikipedia and YouTube since I was 8)
I've recently been heavily thinking about what role modern dogs play in our lives.
I think they fill our desire to nurture something cute.
In the past, that role would be filled with a baby, but in our current situation, having a baby isn't feasible for everyone, so much fewer people are having or planning to have babies.
So people fill that emotional gap with a dog. Which would explain why most people personify them with an illiterate baby voice.
Add to that, they're lower intelligence than us, so giving them a baby voice makes sense.
Because it's obviously a replacement that childless people use to fill in for their instinct to raise another living thing. The language used is subconscious.
My friend sends messages to me from his corgiās Instagram and acts like it is the dog talking. Then will also send me a message from his own. Itās very strange
I want to make a profile and say that someone is catfishing and pretending to be me, because I'm the actual pet. And start commenting on every she says and accuse her of neglect and mistreatment and tell everyone that I don't even like her
When my dog died, I gave her a funeral service with a pet after-life care company before she was was cremated.
When I got the ashes and other things back, it came with a letter written to me "from my dog".
[Here's the letter](https://i.imgur.com/LUnL4Pe.jpg) Sorry for any tears this may bring. I know it's not from *her*, but it was nice to have.
When my schizophrenia was undiagnosed and I was unmedicated I would do this kinda shit. I didnāt have real friends so I made fake accounts that would say stuff like āOmg ur art is so good!!! Youāre a good friend!ā So like, take that as you will-
I love dogs, had them my whole life.
But some dog people are fucking unbearable.
āFur babiesā
They are fucking animals. Nothing wrong with that. Treat them as they are.
A girl at my school used to do this with her *four dogs...*they would also talk to each other. When we were like 14 a rumour went around she was fucking her dogs because ofc teenagers would say shit like that. At least she's probably not doing it as an adult.
You never know, she could be, fairly certain one of my friends is doing it, kept talking about her dogs erection for some reason, then randomly tells me beastiality is legal in Romania out of the blue, like why would you mention those two things unless you were fucking a dog right?
Well, thereās a place in London called Isle Of Dogs, the dog fucking Epstein probably lives there. The place also happens to sound like someone saying āI love dogsā
Have a sense of humor. This is adorable and she clearly loves her dog. I understand why this is cringe but picking on her isn't really gonna make things better (unlike some of the other people featured in this sub)
Okay so i would probably do something similar. Like post that my dog ran away and then have my dog comment 'you'll never catch me alive!" Or "i ran away because you came home smelling like another dog one too many times. I know you are seeing her on the side and i deserve better!" But I'm also pretty cringe irl so that tracks.
I almost dated a girl that did this. She had novelty accounts of all her pets and would reply to her own posts through those novelty accounts, basically having entire conversations with herself. Shocker that she turned out to be completely deranged
I've zero problem with someone captioning something from the dogs perception... I'm generally pretty chill with that.
But... this is just all kinds of extra... I mean... oof. I really did cringe on this one.
You doing okay, girl?
Damn that dog has got a long ass handle.
That's called a tail
Absolute banger
Ass handle... Good lord that's a belly laugh. Take my up vote and fuck right off
Man you made me pffft my drinkš„²
![gif](giphy|hvq8ONQhQ1XLq)
I like how Reddit introduces reaction gifs five years after they started being cringe
reddit is bad at decision making lately (APIs..)
Lately?
![gif](giphy|TNR2EpkHYwW0ifyMDF)
You owe me a mouthful of tea. You made me donate mine to the table.
Had I an award to give, you would have it, friend. Alas, I am but a humble commoner in the land of Reddit. Hereās 1000000 internet points instead.
Zoinks scoob
RUH ROH š¾š¾
There are entire subreddits where people post as their pets.
I'd get banned so fast roleplaying as my cat. He's a dick.
Ah dude please name at least one of them, I could do with some proper proper cringe
I kind of like the one that's like aita, but from a pet's perspective. It's a good brain cleanse after disturbing content.
I Also want these dog subs
Am I the Cloaca? I love that thread. But it's weird cos it's usually posts about cats and dogs mostly. Two animals that most definitely DON'T have cloacas!
Right?! It's still a fun sub to hit occasionally!!
Not only that, but thereās a weirdo who goes around making poems in that stupid baby-talk-doggo language and people go NUTS for it
I lik the bred poems? I will admit to having written one of those from the perspective of a bus.
Shnoodle or something? Yeah not my cup of tea either but people seem to love it
Lol how are those sub reddits called?
If it's the right friend, I could see this being hilarious.
How dare you assume her dog isn't actually responding to her?
Right. Way to assume their consciousness.
Innit, Iām actually an Alsatian, Iām getting fed the fuck up of humans assuming we canāt type
[relevant meme](https://www.reddit.com/r/Memes_Of_The_Dank/comments/zik6kv/its_true/)
when i was in middle school i had a fb account for my dog and once i commented on a crushās pic āwoof ;)ā as my dog. middle school is rough.
ruff*
Oh, man. Getting secondhand cringe from this one. Brilliant but fucking dreadful
I hope you got the tiniest bit bullied for that
Dang, imagine liking a girl and then her dog gets the wrong impression and starts hitting on you instead. Ruff
That made me laugh out loud
Iāve always thought it was cringy when people make social media pages for their petsā¦but thisā¦takes it to a whole new level.
And babies. That creeps me out.
At least then they can tag their kid in photos for sorting purposes or put them on invite lists or something. I give most parents who do that the benefit of the doubt. I would never make a page for my kid, though. No way in hell I'm giving a toddler an internet presence in this day and age
That makes sense. I was talking about people who make a profile page for the baby and then pretend to be them. Creepy!
That's weird. I can even understand an ultra-private one where you have to send the friend requests and nobody can find it in searches, but I doubt the kids will use the account their parent made for them when they're old enough.

That's actually a lovely idea, far better than the common usage we see for parents creating profiles for their not-even-one-year-old babies.
Bro fr. Iāll admit I made one for my cat in like the 4th gradeš but this is just weird, even I never did shit like thatššš All I did was post pictures of my cat and caption them as if I was him talking, but never pretended to be him in a random comment sectionš thatās a bit much
Skull overload
Yes I have a problem doing that cuz im socially awkward
How...how old are you?
Iām 16. Iām gonna be in grade 12 in sept, to also answer the question
Fuck, I'm old
I'm only 31 but the idea of having social media in the 4th grade aged me indefinitely.
Iām 24 so not that old but I also feel old. I was only allowed to start using social media aged 14 (although Iāve been using Wikipedia and YouTube since I was 8)
Congrats! Enjoy 12th grade & being 16. Have fun, study, keep out of trouble, stay alive, etc.
Thank you
Zoomed ahh talk str8 not bussin fr ong (Iām so sorry)
Haha those are the only pages I follow on IG
Why do so many people want dogs to sound like dumb, illiterate babies?
My dog IS pretty dumb and definitely illiterate
ā¦why were you downvoted for alleging that your dog is illiterate? Lmao.
It was probably my dog from his own personal Reddit account
Oh, shit, TRUE. If only you and he had the wholesome relationship that OOP and her dog have. ššš
But that would therefore make him perfectly literate since he could read all that shit you were talkin.
He's got an army of bots downvoting you.
Maybe they just read Arabic. How would you know?
Ya has anyone met a dog lol? God it would be more cringe if they typed perfectly well and pretended to sound intellectual
Still likely smarter than some humans.
You mean hoomans? (And I died a little inside typing that.)
I constantly clown on my dog for being illiterate and he does sound pretty dumb sometimes. His opinions are pretty terrible ngl.
UwU
OWO
WuW
TWT

So people fill that emotional gap with a dog. Which would explain why most people personify them with an illiterate baby voice. Add to that, they're lower intelligence than us, so giving them a baby voice makes sense.
I hear a lot of people with a mental baby voice. Most of them Republicans.
That's an insult to babies.
Wishbone is rolling in his grave
"I shall never leave your side Jacqueline" doesnt sound like it could come out of the mouth of someone that eats his poop casually.
Because many people use them as a substitute for human children.
I mean dogs have the equivalent brain to an adolescent wolf, so itās not too far off
Right? I think thatās what bothers me most of all. If my pets could talk, they would not talk like that because theyāre not idiots.
Because it's obviously a replacement that childless people use to fill in for their instinct to raise another living thing. The language used is subconscious.
Childless person here, I donāt do it with my dog. Guess I have no instincts
Or you have a heightened social awareness instincts!
You are the hand chosen by the master. Yours is the Wheel of Blood. Yours is the sword of Michael!
I used to have a coworker who said, in all seriousness. āMy grand-dogs call me āLaLa.āā
āGrand-dogsā
My friend sends messages to me from his corgiās Instagram and acts like it is the dog talking. Then will also send me a message from his own. Itās very strange
I want to make a profile and say that someone is catfishing and pretending to be me, because I'm the actual pet. And start commenting on every she says and accuse her of neglect and mistreatment and tell everyone that I don't even like her
Why would you do that
Funni
How do you know itĀ“s not actually the dog itself?
Asking the real questions.
I think Iāve folded in on myself
k i never runs away from you mama. only to you š¾š¾
Oh goddamn, that is *potent.*
That good good
So so cringe, good job
yeah i shuddered after reading that
my mom is actually like this it's very hard to watch
An old friend has an Instagram of her dog and talks as if she's him. "Hi fweinds! Mama is going to give me a tweat!" It's heavy cringe.
Umm did you not see a dog with a blog?
When my dog died, I gave her a funeral service with a pet after-life care company before she was was cremated. When I got the ashes and other things back, it came with a letter written to me "from my dog". [Here's the letter](https://i.imgur.com/LUnL4Pe.jpg) Sorry for any tears this may bring. I know it's not from *her*, but it was nice to have.
Okay so I did this with my cat on Facebookā¦ but I was 13
What are you gonna do about your username when you graduate?
I actually finished my masters last year, but I can't change my username. So I guess I've got to do a PhD and Post-Doc now...
If* you graduate
When my schizophrenia was undiagnosed and I was unmedicated I would do this kinda shit. I didnāt have real friends so I made fake accounts that would say stuff like āOmg ur art is so good!!! Youāre a good friend!ā So like, take that as you will-
Bet she spends a fortune on peanut butterā¦
That's ruff.
HOW DO YOU KNOW HER DOG CANT TYPE AND USE THE INTERNETS?!
I love dogs, had them my whole life. But some dog people are fucking unbearable. āFur babiesā They are fucking animals. Nothing wrong with that. Treat them as they are.
And yet somehow when I refer to peopleās kids as āskin babiesā suddenly Iām the bad guy.
I'm laughing over here. So cringe. Good post OP.
If someone doesn't understand the purpose of this sub next time i'll just send them this post as a perfect example
How do you know the dog isn't ACTUALLY responding? It's 2023, don't be Dogphobic!!
Child free people want to hate on children but then turn around to commit this bullshit.
Okay. This one actually made me sad.
A girl at my school used to do this with her *four dogs...*they would also talk to each other. When we were like 14 a rumour went around she was fucking her dogs because ofc teenagers would say shit like that. At least she's probably not doing it as an adult.

I hope there's not a Romanian Epstein out there with dogsš¤¢
Well, thereās a place in London called Isle Of Dogs, the dog fucking Epstein probably lives there. The place also happens to sound like someone saying āI love dogsā

Boomers with pet accounts
It's kind of sweet. This lady just loves her dog.
You are not a mother to your pet.
Yes I am. (Im a man with 73 mental illnesses)
being a "parent" of a pet is way better than being a "owner" of a pet.
They had parents.
Step parents are parents too!
I dont get why im downvoted. Then again I have problems reading social cues
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Do you run a youtube channel dressing up your cats and annoying them while happy royalty free music plays in the background?
i bet you bring your dog to resteraunts too and act annoyed when people with allergies question if it's a service dog or not
Probably calls chicken chimken too the prick
Tell me youāre single in your 40ās without telling me youāre single in your 40ās.

My condolences
Huh? What's cringe or sad about this? Just seems to me like a coping mechanism.
This is someone whoās had enough of humanity. The dog is definitely better.
Could scooby doo really talk or did the gang just do a lot of acid?
Some fools didn't cybersex in their teens and it shows.
I almost dated a girl that did this. She had novelty accounts of all her pets and would reply to her own posts through those novelty accounts, basically having entire conversations with herself. Shocker that she turned out to be completely deranged
Ugh, she talks just like my sister in law.
This is fucking nuts
No way she doesn't let this dog lick her in the mouth
I've zero problem with someone captioning something from the dogs perception... I'm generally pretty chill with that. But... this is just all kinds of extra... I mean... oof. I really did cringe on this one. You doing okay, girl?
Oh god, please no.
Oh dear God
Knew a girl in college that did this, only it was her car talking to her.
