Did you read the OP?
The smallest of those turds is, like, fifteen pounds!
Believe what you want.
If they are not shitting on your property, or in places where it really is hazardous - like an operating room, or a nursery school sandpit - why would you want to see dog owners financially or physically(in some cases above) chastised?
Duh. Because we love punishing people for absolutely no good reason.
I must say, life around here is so much better after they passed the pooper scooper law. The street that I lived on used to be like a mine field. It’s nice to be able to walk around and look at stuff other than shit.
And shit.
Good grief, I thought I was the only person who’d encountered that special brand of asshattery. Whoever in my neighborhood is doing that has a dog that shits big and shits smelly, and it’s always in the park where the kids play. I’ve seen the baggies left on a park bench, on the sidewalk, and under a bush. If you go to the trouble of bagging your dog’s poop, how hard is it to carry it to the nearest trash can?
I will admit though, that more than once, I’ve spaced and completely forgotten to take baggies with me when I walk my dog. Half the time, she doesn’t poop. Of the remaining times, there’s someone willing to give me a bag, doggie poops where no one will be going, doggie poops in the woodchips (which allows me to scoop up everything with my bare hands and put it where no one will be), or I can get it after I’ve been to Starbucks and gotten a bag from them. Still, I need to do better.
I think we had a thread about someone who would see bagged dog poop and not get why no one was picking it up. Others chimed in to post that they’d leave the bags but come back for them (there was no garbage can and they wanted to walk their dogs further before leaving).
Good job Ivan! I’ve seen you post in other forums and I’ve been amazed that you actually know how to interact well with others.
I’ve been wondering when you were going to need another dose of attention for yourself.
LD is right. I ain’t buying it either.
But go ahead and work yourself into a bickering frenzy. We can babysit you for a while.
This is retarded shit.
Threadshitting? This isnt huggy world you know, where every second post is [[[[[[huggsey]]]]], and every other post is just agreeing with the OP because thats what the whiney fuckers want and love.
This is the pit, and if somebody wants to jump in and say that NO, this isnt all that important and that you ARE all a bunch of kitty fiddlers, well he can go right ahead and do that.
How 'bout you pick up your shit, and bugger off to Mundane Hugs and Pointless Validation for the Insecure.
And shit.
I once called out a neighbor who was walking her poodle right along my yard and suggested she let it sniff and go on the other side of the road, which is vacant land.
Imagine my amusement when she blurted out “but my dog doesn’t poop!” O really?
In a perfect world responsible dog owners would also pick up their dog’s shit in the woods, imho.
And pleas don’t push it into the storm drain either, that’s nasty!
Hey! Nothing but rain down the drain. It’s doesn’t go the a treatment plant, it goes directly to the nearest receiving waters. I can’t see the You Tube at work - it googles as pertinent.
As a dog owner, I’d be worried about worms and other parasites in off-trail mounds.
So, telling people to get a little prioritising into their lives and not whine about insignificant matters is “a bickering frenzy”, is it?
Talk about making a mountain out of a dog turd.
This is a online message board you shit stain. Complaining about petty annoyances was practically the reason the Internet was built.
It might be the reason you got your internet access, but dont project your motivations onto me.
Let’s all of us responsible dog owners save up our bags of poop, go to Ivan’s house, and spread it on his front porch. Comedy gold I tell you.
And if we were talking about dogs shitting on people’s door steps, you’d be within your rights to get a laugh out of my reaction, but, as we are not…
In re: Post #48
I think bucketybuck needs a hug.
As a responsible dog owner who cleans up after his dog, I would have suggested that you stuff it.
That was probably me - I was wondering if I was missing something, if there was some reason that people were doing this around here. I have since discovered that there exists biodegrable doggie crap bags - I still don’t think the idea is to put your dog’s crap in the bag and just leave it lying there beside the walkway.
Actually the discussion turned to your need for attention. It’s obvious that you are using the dog turd subject as a lead in.
You really are somewhat pathetic. I don’t mean that as an insult.
Either you’ve never stepped in dog shit or you have a very high threshold for personal hygiene. While dog shit won’t kill you I think you’d have a hard time finding somebody who wasn’t immediately pissed off when they stepped in it. In the grand list of life’s problems its not a high priority but it is a situation which brings out a big emotional response. This forum is a good place to let off steam about it…until you have to babysit the attention whore.
Bubba, just let it go. He’s just doing it to get a rise out of you.
