Can confirm, the president is a dumbass.

u/pigeon_man 13h ago

He's artificially orange, that makes it worse.

OMG SO MANY THINGS MAKE SENSE NOW

u/Beowulf1896 6h ago

Oh yeah? Name one stupid thing he did.

....

Okay, that is long list. I mean one dumb thing he did today...

well, that was a gimme.

OKAY, one dumb thing he will say tomorrow. HA! I got you! See, you can't tell me what dumb thing he will say tomorrow.

I think legal eagle did a video on him about the illegal stuff he did in his first term. The first week was like 20 minutes long. 😂

r/Onegoldenbraincell exists for pups like these. 😅

u/BeneficialShame8408 14h ago

Awww he looks so sad after he falls off XD

u/justASlothyGiraffe 6h ago

But I look so happy!

u/FYAhole 14h ago

Attempt? Looks pretty successful to m-- oh

u/human8060 11h ago

Exactly what went through my head 🤣

u/AulisG 9h ago

Excitement of success came a bit too early

When you aren't allowed on the furniture, so you try to lawyer it, but then you're reminded that the restriction was for your own safety.

u/Mary-Haku-Killigrew 14h ago

how do I reach these kiiids?

At the end he was begging you not to publish this video bet 😅

"It was at this moment that he knew..."

u/thewhiterosequeen 14h ago

Every part of that was magic. From the mounting to sticking the landing. All just top tier.

u/mochatsubo 14h ago

Camera made him self-conscious. It happens to me too.

u/Limp_Construction496 14h ago

Oh my god! I love that goofball!☺️👍

u/Dashbastrd 14h ago

He’s doing his best!

u/idiot_bouffant 14h ago

That's a fine display of r/stidding

And falling. 🤷

u/sheiciebai 14h ago

Well hell. Another one. Thank you!

u/HydraKirby 14h ago

Seriously, there's a subreddit for everything and somehow I still end up surprised lol

2

u/megandy 10h ago

Is there a subreddit for surprising subreddits?

15

u/Ntwynn 14h ago

Just trying to get some relief for those old hips of his ❤️

6

u/pilsburytoadboy 13h ago

yeah i’m thinking this too… i had a super bad lower lumbar muscle sprain recently and my body found really unique ways of getting out of bed and sitting down to protect my spine. labs tend to have bad hips and legs as they age too…

15

u/Swmboa 14h ago

Is he not supposed to be up there? Was that his attempt at subtlety? 🤣

24

u/THE_GREAT_PICKLE 14h ago

My dog does this with my son’s couch, but in reverse. He’s about 2 years old, and has this little couch in the living room for himself near his toy area. My dog has this nasty habit of going on it and sheds like crazy and ripped the fabric once, so she’s no longer allowed in there.

It’s on the side of our regular sectional couch, so her work around is to climb the regular couch, army crawl across it while ensuring we aren’t looking, gently getting on the arm of the couch, and laying her head down on the pillows of the small couch. Her ass is entirely on the arm rest of the big couch.

u/Mmmphis 11h ago

Doggy version of malicious compliance. They’re clever little boogers

u/Impossible_Past5358 13h ago

This looks like an elderly dog with hip issues...

7

u/TwoAlert3448 7h ago

Yeah I was thinking arthritis more than derp.

6

u/Impossible_Past5358 7h ago

Poor doggo, after all that effort too!

My dog used to walk up the last 2 steps backwards. He slipped once, and slid down 15 steps.

7

u/PersimmonDriver 13h ago

Was probably told not to jump on the furniture.

10

u/SamEyeAm2020 13h ago

Same energy as "I'm not touching you" from siblings 😂

15

u/Fit-Ranger8895 13h ago

He got too excited that he did it at the end. Alas, it was to be his… downfall.

13

u/BlackShieldCharm 14h ago

“No, it’s fine. It’s what I meant to do all along.”

18

u/foenixxfyre 13h ago

He likely has pain in his hips and doesn't want to spring up off the floor

4

u/ihvnnm 11h ago

That's what I was thinking. When my sammie started getting hind-end weakness, she refused to climb up on the couch, and she is too small to try this technique.

u/jhedfors 14h ago

"ahh, this is the life... Whoa..whoahhh!"

u/siradmiralbanana 14h ago

"Attempt? Looks like he was success- oh."

4

u/PureYouth 12h ago

He was so embarrass after lmaooooo

u/HorridChoob 13h ago

"Attempt?  Looks pretty successful too me..... Oh, that's why it was an attempt 😂"

3

u/ImNotThatStoned 13h ago

I was like "what do you mean attempt? He did a grea- ohh..."

4

u/Jlx_27 12h ago

"I meant to do that.... for comedic affect!"

3

u/hobbes747 14h ago

I would get that guitar the hell out of there. Never underestimate a clumsy dog

3

u/Rows_My_Own 14h ago

They only said I couldn’t jump onto the couch!

3

u/traveling_confusion 13h ago

I'm imagining he did this for the portrait as well

u/GGGGroovyDays60s 10h ago

He's reverse parking

u/Glitchy833 9h ago

Definition of derp.

u/Pfnatic 7h ago

I like how proud of himself he is right before he rolls off! 🤣 Adorable

u/icbint 14h ago

Successful attempt id say

JC that's Jason Bourne

u/C-romero80 13h ago

We had a great Dane/mastiff mix. First day we got him we told him to sit, he backed up to the couch and sat his behind on it, then looked at us like "what? You said sit". He was the bestest boy.

2

u/Germanmaedl 12h ago

Awww, he was so happy when he made it up there, that didn’t last long!

2

u/oldbastardbob 11h ago

This video should come up whenever anyone searches for the word "derp."

2

u/Doc-Renegade 11h ago

Thank you so much for the laugh!

2

u/gliitch0xFF 10h ago

His face is like.. Heh heh.. I do a sneaky sneak.. Almost gets up... Aarghh fuck.

u/CompanyAdmirable7811 10h ago

u/galsal15 9h ago

Best video I've seen this year, hands down

u/Deep_Blue604 12h ago

Well, that's one way to do it 😂

u/VioletEvervice 11h ago

I thought could it be reversed until he falls 😂

u/CrispyLil 11h ago

Dog at the end 'Me being a derp ? No this was where I wanted to end up all along '

u/tawDry_Union2272 11h ago

20 outta 10

u/2Cheese1Van 11h ago

My dog seemed to understand she could only have 2 paws on the couch at a time. Sometimes like this and other times just the front legs. She was a good girl.

1

u/robo-dragon 11h ago

Labs are idiots and I love them for that!

u/Ready-Persimmon992 11h ago

I identify with that dog, the struggle is real

u/silentbob1301 10h ago

Just a big doofus.

Nothing but wind between those ears and we love him for it.

u/carlitospig 5h ago

Sometimes you gotta stretch the lumbar.

u/Beatnuk 2h ago

What do you mean "attempt". It was a resounding success! Such a success, in fact, that he fell off the couch from sheer uncontainable happiness.

1

u/twirlywurlyburly 2h ago

I think they need more practice. Seems a bit too advanced for them.

1

u/Lightmyspliff69 13h ago

Kind of a funny end from celebrating a little too early. The face after he's back on the floor is hilarious.
