For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

When my aunt had a puppy, she set up a barrier to prevent the dog from going upstairs. It was low enough for humans to step over, but the puppy couldn't get over it. Amusingly, as the dog grew up, it never seemed to occur to it that it could now step over the barrier without much fuss.

We used to be able to put up a blanket "wall" across two chairs to stop the dogs from crossing. It took them a few years to realize they could simply walk through/under the blanket.
