Comment on Asking the difficult questions

I legit asked myself this when I would pretend to throw my dog’s ball or hide her toy under her blanket and then sneak it out and have her look for the toy when it’s not actually in the blanket. Does my audience think of me as God or think of themselves as stupid?

I like to think that they think of their toys as alive. You and the toy collaborated to create a fun game of SUPER LOUD SNIFFS to find the toy lol

It was usually a rubber KONG toy so not really anthropomorphic

For years, my dogs favorite toy was a nerf branded football made for dogs.
He would cuddle it, and whenever he got excited and actually chewed it, he would then whimper and cry and cuddle it more, because he hurt his baby

Well, not with that attitude. You just have to anthropomorphize harder!
