WHAT THE FUCK???!!!!

I love dogs but since 2019 why are most dog owners so thick?! Thick is the only word I can think that fits.
😡
It's not that since 2019 more are thick, more a case of they were thick pre '19, but didn't have dogs, and more occasions when irresponsibility, carelessness and selfishness affects others.

Loads of left turds in my area, even more so in winter as 'after dark' they think they can get away with even less personal responsibility. Problem extends further as genuinely responsible dog owners get punished (banned from here and there), due to the actions of others. Kind of like speed bump syndrome, dog owner style.
If I say so myself, if my dog has had that once a year thing of having the runs, I've tried to chivvy her to the road not pavement, and then gone and got a kettle or bucket of water. Not that anyone who don't like me would give a jack, but at least being an irresponsible dog owner is not a tag I possess.
Responsible dog owners detest it just as much as non-dog owners.

There's someone near us who brings there mutt to drop it's guts outside our house.
It was mischief night the other day... Did they wrap the 'dropped guts' in paper, leave it on your doorstep and set fire to it... so you'd come outside and stamp on it to put the fire out? 😄

This bit could go on the 'remember when' thread - Remember when nobody picked dog poo up and fields where kids played football etc were common dog dumping grounds :poop:. So as a kid you'd be playing football with your mates and someone was bound to get covered in it. Mixed memories of times like that lol, including the time the ball rolled through a big pile so got a coating and my mate went for a header :joy:. At least the white stuff was easier to spot in the grass.

I'm not involved in this but recently there's been some fuss on a local Facebook group about people walking/relieving their dogs on playing fields next to a school, they pick up but it's argued it still leaves a smear of poo on the grass that kids play on.

Similar where I am. They've banned dogs totally from playing fields, except the 'perimeter'.
The irony is let anyone go and have a look at the field on match or even practice days. See the zillions of litter, half eaten pasties, coke cans, beer bottles etc left behind, and then wonder who the animals really are. I wonder too the hygiene rating of the flem and spit the 'players' seem to do every 30 seconds, not to mention the continual auditory hygiene listening to the continual fing and a blinding.
 
Interestingly, I much prefer a girl dog which I have to a boy dog for toilet reasons. By me, they're mostly boy dogs and I can totally see how people, who aren't really into dogs/don't like them got issues with dogs pi**ing over their property. Their walls, car wheels, plants, fronts etc. You can see their point: As one says, who often got dogs weeing all over his gate: 'let someone have 10 dogs, but why must I be involved?' At least with my dog she typically goes only once a walk, and, being a girl, they coopy down and wee, so don't do it over anyone's property. I couldn't just stand their and watch my dog, under my responsibility, weeing over their gate, walls, car, plants which they paid good money for etc etc

A while ago I was walking my dog in the park. Stopped to talk with another dog walker. Our dogs did the usual greeting by sniffing each other's bums then his dog walked over, cocked his leg and p*ssed all down my trousers.
I laugh about it now but wasn't best pleased at the time.
 
I remember buying SeaMonkeys from an advert in SmashHits.
£1:20 delivered, they came in a foil flat pack with sand/dust inside, then you put the dust in water…..no SeaMonkeys - gutted. 😭

View attachment 110043

Apparently they were freeze dried sand fleas, but I did see any.
I remember the adverts and seem to vaguely remember getting some from somewhere... IIrc it worked but nothing like as advertised, the creatures that appeared were like tiny little dots swimming around.

On the other hand, when my now grown up kids were little I bought them a triops set, this really did work as advertised. Still got the kit, I think maybe if I dug it out and added water some triops would still grow.

A young Rottweiler christened me years ago. He was friendly and had already been up to see me and my dog, he came back and he was leaning on me and getting a head rub and then I noticed my leg was getting damp due to what his back end was doing.
 
Saw an old couple in Citroen C1 years ago trying to put a massive flat pack something from IKEA in the back. More than half hanging out the boot. Only in their wildest, Don Quixote style fuelled delusion was it ever going to fit. Least these folks have gone vertical....
 
Why does everything suddenly become a Christmas version of food (and therefore more expensive) just because you drizzled/slopped a load of catering pack quality cranberry sauce over it?!??
What a load of dingo's kidneys.
 
👍 If one of those bags holds say 540 litres of LPG in vapour form, that's only the equivalent of 2 litres of LPG in liquid form because 270 litres of vapour LPG at atmospheric pressure compresses into 1 litre of liquid.

New business model for Simon.


Missus pointed the gas bags on Facebook out to me, not much done in India surprises me but I already knew they did the gas bag thing there.

Here in The Netherlands they would be cycling with that lot underneath their arms! lol
In India too
