My friend Jeff was driving home from work one day and a porta-potty fell off the truck in front of him and burst open in the highway. Jeff had his windows and sunroof open.

Never thought to look for a Flickr 'shit' tag. Huh.

The Shit. Is Here.

* flings shit indiscriminately *

As long as you brought it up, I really need to know: why do people teach thier dogs to shit on the sidewalk instead of on grass? And what's so damned hard about cleaning it up in either case? (Love dogs, but have a lot of shit on my shoes lately.)

As a dog owner, maryh, I can only guess that they think it would be rude to let their dog shit in someone else's yard. I try to keep her out of the middle of someone's lawn, but she's gonna go where she's gonna go.

And yes, in my neighborhood at least, I sometimes feel like I'm the only one who cleans up after my dog anymore. It's disgusting, and it's unhealthy for other dogs that might come by.

Yeah, sometimes it's hard to get the dog to bypass all those tempting green front lawns on the way to the public riverbank. I really don't like the business of leading your dog onto someone else's lawn. Not only because not everyone then picks up.

That being said, I had someone come up and rant at my dog for being "one of those neighbourhood shitters", messing up the place. At which point I pulled out the four (!) bags I carry in my pocket and said "not us". In retrospect, I wish I had told him to fuck off, or speak to me not to my dog, but I was rather too flabbergasted to react properly.

He's also an adorable mini jack russell pup. One girl walking by while he squatted on the sidewalk paused to say "he's even cute when he's doing that". Not that this impacts on the thread. Just sayin. :)

I have a neighbour that passive-aggressively glares at dog-walkers who don't clean up, staring out her window at them until they clean up the mess.

I hate taking my kids for a walk with the stroller and accidentally pushing a tyre through a big stinky squishy turd, so the smell is with us wherever we go, and having to hose down the stroller to get the stink off. It happens too often in my neighbourhood. Ick.

Jack Russells are the shit. And I mean that in a good way.

Yeah, I have a dog-glarer in my neighborhood too. I call her "the single issue lady" because, uh, that's the single issue she cares about. One morning, she chewed me for supposedly letting my dog dirty the lawns of others (the Ralph's bag full of poo didn't dissuade her), but failed to notice she was standing in a fairly large pile of discarded condoms. I had to admire her focus, though.

>she was standing in a fairly large pile of discarded condoms

that woman should really have cleared up after herself.

Am I juvenile for thinking that it's hilarious that the flickr url contains the phrase "shit clusters"?

brainwidth, you're not alone.

This shit is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

Leave my post alone, please.
