I always pick up my dogâs dookie. I bring extra bags, and if I see a pile near where Iâm picking up his droppings, I will even pick that up, because I really am proud and amazed to live in a city where there is so little yard sausage. I mean that.
As Iâm walking my doggie this morning, a neighbor I donât recognize stopped her car, rolled down the window, and said, âI sure hope itâs not YOU whoâs leaving poop all over the place. Because itâs illegal in Decatur, you know.â
My response was, âNo, maâam. I throw it in the garbage, you a**hole.â
My question: Was âa**holeâ a strong enough epithet? I felt like I could have done better.
I wish you’d said, “Oh, no ma’am, I only poop in people’s yards when my wife is taking too long in our bathroom, and that only happens once a month or so.”
Thanks for helping keep Decatur clean! Also, “yard sausage”? Ha!
It does give me hope that as a society we have nearly eliminated stepping in dog poo as part of life’s daily worries. I think my kid has only ever stepped in it once in his whole life, whereas in my memory it was a roughly monthly occurrence in my childhood, both on sidewalks and in grass (including a particularly memorable time with bare feet… ugh.)
I fear Free for All Friday is over.
Noooo! It’s just the spring break slump. Right??!!
Seems like commenting overall has basically ceased since the format change.
Up from last week! đ Weâre on the rise!
Where did everyone go?
Still not used to the format change. Hasn’t won me over and seems like there’s less updates. Could just be me though.
I would attribute it more to the general decrease in frequency of posts. Which is the creatorâs prerogative, of course.
I will contribute with a question!

Thank you.
