I have always thought that Chihuahuas remember they should be wolves and are deeply resentful. They're also the only breed that has chased me down the street.

I like the "make a home for stuff where it tends to end up" approach. Does dirty laundry belong in the bathroom? No. But my kid leaves it there anyway, so, hamper in the bathroom. Minimize the harm.

There is (or used to be) a line of chocolates with these same woodcuts too. One was the camel. (Yeah, I'm "had the camel book" years old).

You can want it all you want, but if even a small fraction of people would misuse it it's not worth it for everyone to get it. What's a valid, non-creepy reason to want the address of someone you see on the subway?

I can see many things wrong with randos on the street being able to get the home address of anyone who walks past. Ask any woman who's ever been followed, or who gave the Uber driver a slightly wrong address.
