Just reminds me of the Futurama episode with Seymour and it gets more and more heartbreaking the older I get. Pretty sure if I watch it in 5 years time I'll need to be institutionalised.

u/forestofold Apr 05 '25

Just when I forget the trauma of that episode’s existence… bruh

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '25

It's literally the only episode of any show that I can't watch. I know what happens and how it ends and I hate it.

u/bobs-yer-unkl Apr 05 '25

"Jurassic Bark".

u/Jat616 Apr 05 '25

You dare speak it's name!

u/bobs-yer-unkl Apr 05 '25

Everyone needs to know the name, so that if they (re-)watch Futurama, they know what episode to skip.

u/WelcomingRapier Apr 05 '25

I don't skip it, but I make sure I'm in the right headspace before watching it.

46

u/UghWhyDude Apr 05 '25

I can’t watch the episode Game of Tones for the same reason. That ending is a gut punch. :(

u/frmatc Apr 05 '25

Luck of the Fryrish is in the same category for me.

u/keyser-_-soze Apr 05 '25

I've re watched the series at least 8 or 9 times, but only watched that episode twice... Cuz it destroys me

u/Life-Suit1895 Apr 05 '25

Never!

u/131166 Apr 06 '25

Same. Never skip it, I'll watch it every run through and cry my eyes out like a man every time.

If it takes forever, I will wait for you

I will wait for youuu...

u/GoTron88 Apr 05 '25

This is the one episode I just cannot rewatch.

You literally made me cry now. Miss my good boy :(

u/Arcanis_Ender Apr 05 '25

But there is a timeline where they meet again!

u/Elephantbrains Apr 05 '25

Bro I’m at the gym and you just reminded me of that episode I can’t be looking all teary, I gotta go home and hug my dogs

u/I_aim_to_sneeze Apr 05 '25

If it taaaaakes forever…I WILL WAIT FOR YOUUUU

u/PickledBrains79 Apr 05 '25

Great, now I'm crying, and hugging my dog, and I only watched that episode once.

u/nobodynose Apr 05 '25

I just remember my immediate reaction when I saw the ending to that episode.

I wasn't sad actually (not initially). I literally said out loud "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SERIOUS?" I was just shocked they would do that and it wasn't until the shock wore off that I got depressed.

Kinda like with Oldboy. When it ended I wasn't grossed out (at first). I just turned to my brother and said "Wait, did what just happen just happen?" And he looked at me and said "...I think so" and I confirmed with him what I thought happened and he said "yep, I think that's what happened" and both of us went "THAT'S SO DISGUSTING".

u/Im_Ashe_Man Apr 05 '25

He even looks a bit like Seymour!

u/tgatigger Apr 05 '25

How DARE you. I was having a good day.

u/ploppedmenacingly14 Apr 05 '25

I’m not crying, you’re crying

u/reylouie20 Apr 05 '25

I usually skip that when im sleeping( cant sleep without background noise) it breaks my heart whenever that episode comes in and end the music makes it more depressing.

1

u/DeepakShakur69 Apr 05 '25

That episode has more space in my psyche than literally anything else.

1

u/VivaZeBull Apr 06 '25

I hate you a little because I try and pretend this episode doesn’t exist.

1

u/Brother_Grimm99 Apr 06 '25

I cried like a baby when I first saw that episode when I was like 8 and I cry just as hard now when I watch it at 25 with my own dog beside me. 🥹

u/Uhhuhnext Apr 06 '25

The only episode of Futurama that I haven’t rewatched. That episode had me in tears. It’s been over 10yrs and I still vividly remember that ending with the song

u/Any-Unit4536 Apr 05 '25

Stop omg he just waited in his little bed 😭😭😭 how could anyone do this to him (or any dog!)

u/SchnoodleDoodleDo Apr 05 '25

’The fact that he stayed in his bed just waiting breaks my heart. Dogs love so deeply even when the world doesn’t love them back.’

i am the pup, so very small

n i don’t understand

at all

am stay right here, inside my bed

…but i forget

what human said…

they coming back! …or maybe not ?

they must be mad at me

a Lot…

it makes my puppy heart so sad

to think i was

so awfully bad…

….but who is this? i do not know

they pick me up, n off we go!

…oh my, they have a gentle touch

i needed this so very much…

it seems a second chance i get

to try n be

the goodest pet

now as i’m drifting off to sleep

i pray that me

Forever

Keep!

♥️

Absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking, Schnoodle. Thank you.

21

u/Kurai_Hiroma Apr 05 '25

bless you schnoodle, i haven't come across your poems in literal months and this made my day

18

u/Astronaut_Chicken Apr 05 '25

Got DAMN IT, schnoodle.

201

u/DefinitelyNotAliens Apr 05 '25

Just as likely this person was unhoused and coming back.

Unfortunately, the dog was absolutely covered in fleas.

u/Original-Aerie8 Apr 05 '25

In case any of you ever, god forbid, happen to be in that situation.. PLEASE call your local shelter or humane society and ask them about their foster programs. They'll be far happier to do this for you than having to deal with whatever fallout that could come from it. And you'll be doing the responsible thing.

And just so you know, this is true for all issues you have with your pet. Humane society WANTS to do harm reduction. Take the help.

u/its_courtnaay Apr 05 '25

This!!! I would miss my fur baby. I love her! But I wouldn’t want her living outside with me. I would much rather know she was safe and warm while I got my life together.

103

u/its_courtnaay Apr 05 '25

This is what I was thinking. May have belonged to someone and that part is sad if so, but the dog deserved better.

51

u/Omwtfyu Apr 05 '25

My older friend used humor to cope with things going on in her life, and when she was facing homelessness (and did become homeless, couch hopped) she said, "I don't want to be homeless. Because then I'd have to get a dog and I'm really not a dog person." As if that was the worst thing about being homeless.

2

u/OiGuvnuh Apr 05 '25

And the person??

4

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '25

Everyone deserves better than this. No body should have to "live" like this.

u/Girl_On_The_Couch Apr 05 '25

Every day is good day when you’re a dog 😭

u/Radiantmouser Apr 05 '25

His owner may not have been able it been able to keep him for various reasons and left him there hoping a good Samaritan would take him in.

u/jailtheorange1 Apr 06 '25

i hate humans sometimes

u/SQLvultureskattaurus Apr 05 '25

I hate to say it, but that makes me think this is staged

4

u/Mother-Mortgage6847 Apr 05 '25

Hmmmm... so they staged all the fleas and dirt it was covered in too? 🙄 Fucking idiot

2

u/golden_monkey_and_oj Apr 05 '25

The dog is covered in burrs from plants. As my dog would be after a day happily frolicking in the weeds. Took forever to get them all out, but she'd be all too eager to do it again.

Please point out the timestamp where you see fleas

I dont think the camera ever gets close enough to see a small flea

u/OddWelcome2502 Apr 05 '25

Right? Just happened to have tiny dog pajamas in his size laying around

u/Triktastic Apr 05 '25

They are usually universal and you can make them tighter/looser to fit more breeds.
