minus-squareCatfish@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up7·6 days agoAnyone else feel a bit weird seeing their pet listed with a surname? Vet yesterday went a level odder and was addressing them as Sir.
minus-squaretombruzzo@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up5·6 days agoI thought vets always did it to be cute but it probably helps line up animals and owners in their system. It’s extra funny when a pet is called something stupid because the last name then makes it sound so formal
minus-squareCatfish@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 days agoTotally makes sense systemwise, they some linking that isn’t a stupid randomnumber
minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·6 days agoThat’s extremely cute. Melbcat used to have a compounding pharmacy deliver her meds by mail, and it was addressed to her with my last name. Like, that’s right, that’s my adopted daughter. Who is practically people
minus-squareCatfish@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·6 days agoThat could be awkward for signatures 🐾
minus-squaremelbaboutown@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-26 days agoI think some payment apps accept “finger” prints as a signature… I better watch it
minus-squareCEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 days agoI love that show and the books.
minus-squareAlamutjones@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·6 days agoThe books have always been my comfort reads. I’ve recently embarked on them again
minus-squareCEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·6 days agoYeah. I call my dog Toby [my middle name][my surname] when he’s been bad. To hear someone else say it is weird.
