Maybe he’s like Lassie or The Littlest Hobbo. Travels around Ireland with a horrible theme tune following him shitting in areas where people in need of help smoke?  
What?

I think it’s jjimm, and he’s just trying to cover his tracks.

\*There’s a voice,  
That keeps on calling me.  
Down that road,  
Is where I’ll always be.  
Every stop I make,  
I’ll make a new friend.  
Can’t stay for long, just take a dump and I’m gone again.

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll wanna use a loo,  
Until tomorrow, I’ll just keep moving on.\*

and then I thought ‘what’s all this about 1000 posts, surely he already has 5000?’ And then I saw that the original post was 11 months ago… odd.

Yeah, I seem to have spunked more than 4,000 posts in the last 11 months. Not quite to **Q.E.D.'s** standard of proliferation, but clearly an indication that I could be doing something better with my time. All full of sound and fury and signifying nothing…

Anyway, the perp again brought his own toilet paper, and did the plop in exactly the same place, except this time the bog roll was put on top of a drain. I haven’t touched it, by the way.

Since the two poos were just about a year apart, I’m wondering if this was some tramply migration, as in Orwell’s _Down and Out in Paris and London_.

I’m also thinking what manner of animal are we that don’t bury our own turds?

maybe he should get some antibiotics - that’ll give him the runs. I know that’s what it does to me ☹

I bet it’s symbolic. Perhaps a sacked former employee taking some nasty form of revenge every year?

And yet there are those who say that school learnin’ doesn’t translate into street smarts!

Way to go, **jjimm**!

Why not take a sample of the evidence and have some DNA tests run on it? This might help find out who’s responsible.

Or, take pictures of it and submit it to ratemypoo dot com (not linked since I wouldn’t really consider this to be a work-safe site).

I think this has the makings of a film, perhaps in a Blair Witch style.

You might check the sides of some milk cartons to make sure it’s not a missing turd.

This thread should be renamed “Scooby **Doo** and the Case of the Phantom Shitter”.

Sorry, nothing more to post here but I thought this was very funny (but it probably isn’t).
