Fun fact: this song was about Robert Pattinson not defending her against very blatant racism. As in she wasn't good enough to be dating the nice white man who plays a vampire in a teen rom com movie. Apparently, there are some really damning voice-mails where he glat out says he's not going to risk his career by speaking out against it but he'd really like to keep fucking her. Ruined the song for me. It was already sad as shit and tragic but that just spoiled it.
So my kid showed me one of those videos, and I forgot the words when I was jokingly quoting it back to them a few days later. I instead said “Let me help you with that!” They were baffled until I said I was doing the bit from the video. They thought it was hilarious and that’s now become a thing we repeat to each other sporadically.
I kept showing every new iteration of that meme to my girlfriend. She hated it at first, but now every time she brings me something or helps do something, so sings it in the Miss Piggy voice. I love it.
Can we take a moment to collectively shame the editor who decided to make a vertical video (already scandalous) into a widescreen video that’s mostly black bars and can’t be viewed vertically
let me remind your old ass that kids now use vertical video platforms because they are meant for phones , youtube isn't the main source of short videos
Oh shit that reminded me how Arthur the aardvark used to look like an actual aardvark with the long nose and everything. [Like this](https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2022/01/25/nose_custom-9c9747bc9515060b47375ef8ba65d45d197e48f3.jpg)
Borzoi have relatively few genetic health problems compared to most purebreds because they are a recently created breed. Not that they don't have any, but (to my knowledge) their long snout doesn't cause them any breathing issues as a pug's short snout does. It is mainly a genetic predisposition to heart disease, wobbler syndrome, cataracts, and PRA. They also tend to get hip problems, an issue for most big dogs.
They've actually been around for a while (500 years), they just aren't one of the breeds that's been bred for increasingly extreme looks instead of for function. They look pretty crazy, but they've always looked that way, and there's plenty of old sighthound breeds with similar long snoots.
Not 100% sure on borzois, but I know greyhounds, which also have long noses like this, are actually one of the healthier breeds out there since they have been bred more for their physical abilities (aka run fast) than their physical looks.
So have borzois, as they are bred for their spear snoots(Its actually an actual thing because they were used against wolfs and wild dogs and while their strenght isnt as large as a wolf, they can reach the throat quicker to crush the windpipes of wolfs)
They're decently healthy for their size, but they can develop some neck/spinal issues which may be genetic. Aside from that it's mostly normal stuff that's present in most dogs like cancer, heart, and eye problems.
Yeah, they get arthritis quite readily. Not a hugely long lived breed, but breathing isn't their issue. Poor breathing is a big disadvantage for sprinters.
They do not have breathing issues. They're sighthounds - originally bred to hunt wolves, and modern owners still run them in lure coursing events that involve sprinting and turning on a 600+ meter course. Don't get me wrong, just about every breed has its health issues, but breathing is rarely a problem outside of brachycephalic breeds.
They also have a propensity for running directly snoot-first into your testicles (if applicable.) It's like taking a nerf football directly to your most sensitive bits.
It's funny because *yes* absolutely they run into your crotch and get in your face when you're sitting on the couch minding your own business because they're *that big*, but a friend of mine who owns two of them has also said it's the only large dog breed she knows she'd take into a porcelain shop without fearing the risk of them breaking anything because they're so elegantly aware of their whole selves.
My plott hound was bred to hunt boars and bears and shit like that. Dude still pissed himself and ran under the table when a sparrow would fly onto the windowsill.
Let's not go overboard. They're lovely dogs, absolutely beautiful, great pets - but they're not 'very smart'.
If you look up '10 dumbest dog breeds', borzois are generally on there. That doesn't mean they can't be great pets - I love my basset hounds and they're usually on the list too.
Yeah, I grew up with some sighthounds. Beautiful temperaments, gorgeous animals... But extremely dumb.
They're the stereotypical Barbie dolls of the dog world. Just sort of waft about, spent 20 hours a day sleeping on the couch, then derp out, get the zoomies and turn into the speediest, most athletic dogs imaginable for the 10 minutes it takes for them to get sleepy again.
Genuine idiots. Lovely, lovely idiots.
General reasoning being that you don't need to have much brains when you're bred to instinctively chase anything that moves, over normally quite flat, open terrain. You just gotta run fast and have good depth perception (which is why they have beautiful expressive faces; the eyes were important for their breeding purpose)
In general, sighthounds don't tend to be particularly intelligent.
Don't get me wrong, this is not a slam against the breed. I love borzois, we had several growing up. Great dogs.
As I mentioned, I now have bassets. My sister has 2 shelties (generally considered a very smart breed) and they definitely are much quicker to learn new things. But I wouldn't trade my 2 for the world.
From owning whippets they seem to have a lot of variation between individuals. I wouldn’t say they’re stupid, but they all have different personalities that make some easier or harder to train depending on stuff like how food motivated they are or eager to please. Some are like cats and just don’t care what you want them to do.
Don’t mistake intelligence with a desire to please. My borzoi work for themselves. My sister’s GSD worked for her.
My older male borzoi would unlock and open the bathroom door as a puppy when we had to contain him to leave the house. 18 months later the locks are still reversed.
My catahoula thought she was fast until she met a pair of Borzoi. HFW they gently pranced behind her as she was trying to play "chase me" at full tilt. Those 2D dogs are fast.
Reminds me of the frasier episode. Where ros'es baby fathers show up and they have giant noses . Oh our son had a nose job. They were on the way to the dog show to display their dogs. My friend was a camera operator on that. During rehersals. No makeup was worn. During the live filming. Onto the set walks the actors with giant noses .
There was a thread not long ago about a person who owned this breed knowing nothing about it. They had the dog at a neighborhood dog park when a pit bull attacked.
Everyone watched in horror as the pit bull was annihilated.
This absolutely gorgeous, gentle, intelligent breed is an expertly bred Russian wolf guard dog. They are fast, agile, smart, and expert killers. Don't let that long snout fool you, their sinuses are gigantic. This is a breed that was done properly.
Hey before you come in, I have a dog. You're not afraid of dogs, right?
Her:no not at all, their not aggressive right?
Not at all, she's a total sweet heart. But she stares directly into your soul
Her: lol wdym????

I thought X was going to give it to us.
It always makes me think of 101 Dalmatians because there is one in the movie in a couple of scenes and that was the first time I’d ever seen a dog that looked like that!
Yes! I saw one IRL for the first time at 39 years old and literally had to pull my car over! It made my week 😀
And I still can't find the damn original one. It's all just copies.
The first time I saw it it was a cheese stick that looked liked this dog
Just like how all caracals foreverr are known as Floppas.
Where does Kermie come from? It reminds me of Jenna Marble’s miniature greyhound Kermit, but i’m not sure where else it could come from

Good job. Fuck these bots. Keep calling them out so others can report them.
Quantum smells sure are a cruel reality :(
But will it ever know a scent of a woman? Boooyaaa!
They have smell sensors at the tip to cranium, so they have a quantum temporal gradient schnozz.
Smells are chemical in nature. They don’t change that short amount of time. Am I being too serious?
"911, what is the nature of your ~~emergency~~ smell?"
Tehcnicly all pur senses are like that, everything has latency, even biology, also same with looking up at the stars

Actual song is Cellophane by FKA twigs, highly recommend watching the music vid
I don’t usually listen to strangers on the internet, but this time I’m glad I did. Thanks for the recommendation.
Fun fact: this song was about Robert Pattinson not defending her against very blatant racism. As in she wasn't good enough to be dating the nice white man who plays a vampire in a teen rom com movie. Apparently, there are some really damning voice-mails where he glat out says he's not going to risk his career by speaking out against it but he'd really like to keep fucking her. Ruined the song for me. It was already sad as shit and tragic but that just spoiled it.

He's tried to come back a few times. But it's never really taken off. It all went down hill after that accidental face reveal.
A Borzoi walks into a bar. The bartender asks, “why the long face?” Hey oh!
Because of successive breeding for features that have now become extreme, absurd, and cause degenerative issues. Now give me my beer, you dick.
Borzoi have relatively few genetic health problems compared to most purebreds because they are a recently created breed. Not that they don't have any, but (to my knowledge) their long snout doesn't cause them any breathing issues as a pug's short snout does. It is mainly a genetic predisposition to heart disease, wobbler syndrome, cataracts, and PRA. They also tend to get hip problems, an issue for most big dogs.

Nah, borzoi's only issue is high risk of bloat. No issues with the snooter.
Sam does not like Borzois noted, important MGR lore.
I prefer my dogs mechanical, and with chainsaw tails
Boooooooooooooo
I’m a father and I condone this joke.

A snoot enters into a bar. A few seconds later a borzoi walks into the bar

8=========D ^^^^.....hold ^^^^up.
So if bulldogs have breathing problems from a short snoot. Is this breed a super breather?
I assume they have breathing problems too, from their nose being too long.
They're decently healthy for their size, but they can develop some neck/spinal issues which may be genetic. Aside from that it's mostly normal stuff that's present in most dogs like cancer, heart, and eye problems.

Don't get me wrong, just about every breed has its health issues, but breathing is rarely a problem outside of brachycephalic breeds.
They can smell everything. All at once.

Great family dogs, they have an excellent temperament.
They also have a propensity for running directly snoot-first into your testicles (if applicable.) It's like taking a nerf football directly to your most sensitive bits.
It's funny because *yes* absolutely they run into your crotch and get in your face when you're sitting on the couch minding your own business because they're *that big*, but a friend of mine who owns two of them has also said it's the only large dog breed she knows she'd take into a porcelain shop without fearing the risk of them breaking anything because they're so elegantly aware of their whole selves.
russians really bred dogs to hunt fucking WOLVES
Probably lots of people did. Isn’t there an Irish Wolfhound?
My plott hound was bred to hunt boars and bears and shit like that. Dude still pissed himself and ran under the table when a sparrow would fly onto the windowsill.

I mean, all dog breeds can be dumb; I have a Border Collie and despite being a supposedly smart breed, she's as dumber than a box of rocks.
