Ep. 177 Premium - the dog debate [VIDEO]

Thought it was going to be a slimeless ep, almost skipped

I have never felt bad for eating a sea animal who cares if they feel pain

Pokken Tournament DX

when he says less people are putting their dogs down nowadays bc of social pressure & not out of love i gave up on understanding him

u can check most of my comments on The Yard patreon videos and see that i spend alot of time defending Aiden but man i can't defend ts

Aiden and Zipper 3 should become cops at this point with this hatred for dogs

Ludwig is so right, everything that Kevin Hart is feels like everything Slime hates in a celebrity

Crazy that Aiden just replicated a cybersmith hypothetical. Would love to know if that's deliberate

i’m just just o and the hyg and my

God forbid a person LOVES their pet

I was so happy when slime showed up, thought he was missing an ep 🥲

i did sell insurance door to door in kentucky

Pretty sure solo/duo and flex have different mmr

aiden babysitting job starting soon

my friend adopted a husky pre-pandemic and it was rlly hard to train him during lockdown because he was so used to attention 24/7. thankfully he's a great owner so the dog is awesome now but i can easily see him being a much bigger hassle with an owner who wasn't as capable & that owner would have been forced to take him everywhere. i feel like pandemic puppies can't even sit at home alone for a couple hours and that's just not feasible

I searched "is kristen bell covered in tattoos" and AI says yes, she has 214 tattoos. Most notably 'a butterfly for each year the South African apartheid was enacted' and also Steve Urkel on her shoulder

Aiden's mental is insane I have no idea how he's still willing to do these silly arguments when the rest of the guys will not listen to a word he says 😭😭😭

Aimen once again with the correct take on domesticated animals smh

in Aidyn‘s defense, there is also the trend of people not wanting to have kids anymore. There is a lot of societal norm around not wanting kids or having kids and that gets replaced with dog ownership a lot of the time.

OKAY I need to stop this Arcane slander. I don't care if Slime or whoever calls me lame, this is my first and last comment on my last month of being a Patron so I might as well die on this hill + I'm quitting weed and crashing out idc fuck u slime lmao Arcane is stupid good. Story, Characters, Setting; it all rewards you for paying attention and giving it some respect. Watch the cinematics for Ekko and Jinx from like 10 years ago and see that this has been a long time coming and has something more to it. It's one of three good video game adaptations, AND the only one thats animated! Obviously it hits harder if you are a league fan and know a little of the lore, but you really don't even need to be one to like it! tl;dr Season 2 is peak.

thank you for the timestamps so I can skip the league talk

horton (slime) hears a hoo (ant)

Aiden is so right about dogs, Slime is so right about the Copenhagen babies, all of them are so wrong about Arcane <3

My brain might be broken but I keep laughing about Anthony hearing an ant scream

"You ever hear an ant scream?" merch when?

No cause I laughed in the middle of my college cafe hearing that ant sorry

There’s a couple that walks their geese in my local mall and it’s sick

When will Northern Lion be on the yard?

Very curious of Aiden’s thoughts on Bodega Cats

Bro call him shorterace

Aiden is so wrong it hurts.

dogs do not belong in coffee shops but it is impossible to agree with the baby guy. jesus christ.

Aimen the only one to understand or engage with how cultural epistemology and social norms subconsciously effect how individuals perceive their pets and their relationship with them. While yes, "medically we have advanced" (Ahgren, 2024), and access to lifesaving dog medicine has become cheaper, one must also consider how the development of animal rights has progressed in the past few decades, in combination with the increasing commodification of domestic animals as a product of an increasingly dominant capitalist hegemony.

For somebody that lives in Germany and is travelling to South Africa in a month this video felt really targeted

dandadan is so good v cute except for part of the first episode, that was weird

i'm so aimen-pilled

I'm not gonna lie... Up until a saw Slime play League for the first time (like a week ago)... I thought Tahm Kench... Was a real person.

Slime's story about an ant sounds like a Zach Hadel bit

fireg commrnt rvrr amm r5unk qw rudm

i have never left a comment on patreon but holy fuck is aiden dumb in this episode. its a dog it cannot effect you this much. When I see a dog I go "aw" it makes my day a bit better and then I go about my day

ngl all I can think about during this dog debate is how tf are places that serve food allowed to let animals in at all without getting shut down because they can so easily be a health risk no matter how "clean" or well trained they are... like maybe I'm dumb but come on they still carry bacteria and shit

Slime bringing up Darby the gambler was so unexpected. Pause the video and said out loud “yes slime” best episode of jojos

We stand with Aimen.

Aiden's Italy comment is killing im shocked no one acknowledged that

Why is Aiden so bad at arguing

Coke head-ish

I strongly dislike the amount of time the dog debate has taken to the point where it's kinda funny again. That being said I agree with Aiden on the societal pressure point. I feel like it's become socially acceptable to spend thousands of dollars on your sick, blind, partially deaf, dog who is living a objectively worse life because you can. Because we've made the innovations and can now put off the pain of losing them a little longer.

If I had to choose between shooting aiden or not shooting aiden I think I would probably shoot him idk

Ludwig rating Arcane like a film critic like his ass wasn't watching a football game during the show

WHY IS LUD SO THICK, bro cannot be wearing those pants on the pod its too distracting

My friend literally saw @merlinthepig at a coffee shop the other day …. Crazy timing for this episode

Standing on quiet Tokyo Metro trying not to die lauging over the ant screaming story

I will die on the hill that DanDaDan fucking sucks and has not a second of entertainment compared to Arcane

listening to this on Olivia Rodrigo linkbuds

nah the baby unattended thing is the dumbest thing i’ve ever heard im sorry aiden

Slime thinking Kevin Hart is funny is the most surprising thing I've ever heard.

Arcane is 100% in top 10 animated shows INCLUDING anime IDC. Also mobas are poo poo garbage buts its fun hearing how mad y'all get at league.

If I had a nickel for every time Ludwig brought up the word "coquettish" on the pod only for everyone to question him, I'd have two nickels

Luddy with the most accurate fiddlesticks impression known to man 1:01:35

The boys refusing to acknowledge that the way we care about and take care of pets is absolutely changed due to societal pressures and things is INSANE. Like yes, people love their pets, but Aimen is SOOO correct lmao

terrible take from ludwig dandadan is good but arcane season 2 is better

It's crazy Aiden is fighting for his life over such an obvious W.

aiden is just so right

Pigwig

but what if you bring in 9 dogs and they take care of each other

the dog arc must continue get him a puppy and see how swiftly he switches up

They leave the babies outside in some north regions. Same thing happens in Iceland, the cold weather and clean air is supposedly good for them.

so what i’m hearing is that Aiden doesn’t want “undesirables” (dogs) to be visible in “public” (coffee shops). Interesting!!! I wonder what other ideologies also feel that way? 🤨🤨🤨🤨

Aiden is so so right about dogs, and all pets, being treated differently in the past 20 years or so. We used to have outdoor only dogs and cats, declawed cats, feed them scraps and the cheapest kibble, and you would NEVER have "wasted" money on a life saving surgery for a pet. Forget about ethical breeding practices as well. Animal rights have come so far in my lifetime and I'm not even 30 yet.

Code geass chess scene… which one there are a few 😅

As a Saffa myself, loving the boys discovering shit about South Africa... even if its just our anthem and flag 🇿🇦 🇿🇦

Aiden being so adamantly against dogs in public spaces and dying on this hill for multiple weeks was not something I expected

hearing the ant scream story live was the funniest thing ever

aiden is wearing the michael jackson shoes that have slots for nails

I worked in a crab house, we had big plastic bins that would shock the crabs before we steamed them. I'd imagine most places do something similar

#AidenIsRight

If ludwig had a breathtaking pussy, I would let him crush my head between those thighs like a cantaloupe jfc

There’s no number of pigs coming in that wouldn’t be novel

I wish they would get real and open up to us for once. There would never be 1000 dogs in one coffee shop. Tbh if he just changed his position to "owners should be more self aware" I think this argument wouldn't have spanned multiple episodes

Why is Slime out of focus? Or does he just look like that in real life?

I think Aidan is right. We should put more dogs down

I'm so aimen pilled and I would also shoot the pig and the dog in the head in the coffee shop

Nah Aiden is right

Aiden is correct. Even if you have the best behaved dog in the world, I have no idea that is the case and there is no way I can find out. Therefore, if there is a person that has a fear of dogs or an allergy, it is stressful to be around ANY unknown dog because you can NEVER KNOW how they are going to act.

Aiden dying on the anti-dog hill is so crazy

Bro im 100% with Aiden

wahoo!

1:01:05 why on god's green earth did the yard podcast say my name on their show. what the fuck. i was gaming and they're talking to me now.

this week's league convos did not age well after i watched him reset 4 jungle camps in a row

South African anthem is in 5 languages that switch off! One of 4 anthems that switch languages.

My favorite running bit has been Ludwig talking about League like he isn't hard stuck bronze/silver and doodoo pants

the fact that they specifically call out that karl jacobs has met zipper leads me to believe that karl could be zipper

Haven't stopped thinking about the screaming ant

Why is no one talking about dog allergies. I feel like that's a perfectly valid reason to not let dogs in.

Respect to Ludwig for constantly fighting a 1v3 on anime

Some people don’t like dogs and don’t want to be around them. There are also people with dog allergies. No other pet gets this pass that dogs get because dog owners are annoying and entitled. They’ll shit talk every other pet all day but if you say anything about not liking dogs and all of a sudden you are a monster. Keep your dog out of the frickin store (unless you need it for accessibility) and pick up the goddamn poop when take it on a walk.

If anyone likes Akagi, please do yourself a favor and watch Kaiji. The narrator puts in so much work 👌 great gambling series.

south africa mentioned pog, btw Elon does not know the words to at least half the anthem I can garauntee that.

Not on Aiden's side in any way shape or form, however I just got shamed by my entire family and most of my friends for wanting to put my cat down (18 years old riddle with tumors and a hole to the bone on one of his back legs, it was time. Did it 2 days ago) So that cat suffered for a extra 2 months just because I was concerned about the feelings of the people around me. People absolutely shame you for wanting to put your animal down, I just dealt with the shit. Buddy got cuddled all day, ate like a king, and went out purring. Fuck modern pet culture.

When I worked at shake shack forever ago, some guy came with his 2 birds on his hat. He set the hat down at a table outside, and came in to order while the birds waited on the hat outside by themselves. He chilled outside til he got his food and fed his birds french fries while he ate his burger. Just 2-3 weeks ago a customer brought their snake wrapped around them to the pharmacy to pick up their meds 😅

South Africa mentioned 💪💪💪

hey aimen gamin, i’ve been to africa and turkey. if u go to africa id say south africa, kenya, and tanzania are fucking awesome. also turkey is probably one of in not my favorite place i’ve ever been

How does Aiden have the most correct take, but the worst possible argument. Dog allergies are a thing! If a quiet ass cool dog with sunglasses is chilling at my local AMC to watch a movie, some people can’t go see that movie now because of their allergies, otherwise they die!!

Man, Aiden really makes it as hard as possible to be on his side. The pig argument was a good call tho.

I will say aidens whole "what if theres a thousand dogs" my g theres not even a hundred people in a cafe that small like your picturing. 70 people would already be a problem. Capacity isn't that high for humans let alone dogs. There is no issue with controlling capacity. No one would have a problem with that. If they did they'd be crazy. Its not even strawman its like ash-man level argument. you cant even hold that take without it like disintegrating. such an insane hill to die on. Like people that like the remake of jumanji are more defensible. now i am at the stroller part and aiden is just straight up from jupiter's moon. ITs weird in sweden la, the garden of eden. He phrased it like he got over 10 feet from his child.

So much animal talk, the dogs, the monkey!

Against Aiden. We didn't know 60 years ago about a lot of the veterinary tech we use today making it more cost effective to save your pets in modern America. It doesn't have to do with how much people have in disposable income. Like we didn't know that golden retrievers are prone to stomach twists so now we have preventative surgeries to help (which are commonly done during spays and neuters to make the procedure even more cost effective) and we didn't have things like the rabies vaccine or parvo treatment 60 years ago.

Alvvays reference

Pls make the yard League Session a Regular thing, that shit was good

But the 9 dogs in the coffee shop would take care of each other

Declawing your cats and prong collars for dogs are two very recent examples of cultural/societal "pressures" influencing how we treat our pets sometimes even medically. You will also still see the random old person on the internet who will bark at young people who "treat their dogs like children instead of pets" which again just kinda shows how dogs/pets are evolving into being seen as "more so" family instead of the family animals. You could say that means more families are at least willing to financially cripple themselves to save them (vs. old yeller'ing them).

As someone who works in vet med I can tell i am going to take a lot of psychic damage this episode, pray for me 🙏

The main issue with pet dogs in enclosed public spaces is they can easily distract service animals from doing their job. Unless the owner has full control over their dog and can keep them calmly away from service animals they shouldn't be in restraunts and grocery stores etc.
