If you walk away with a hand full of dog shit, you did not win at whatever you were doing.

Is the implication here that its annoying to expect pet owners to be responsible for waste they leave behind?

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 53 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think you're ascribing a moralistic principle to a comic that is intended more for shock value than anything else.

There is no lesson to be had here, and searching for one will only lead to madness.

I’m ready for the madness. I want it to wash over me and cleanse me from our perceived reality.

[–] pfm@scribe.disroot.org 2 points 13 hours ago

Are you, too, as mad as hell, and you're not going to take this anymore?

The implication was that the absurd comic is meant to evoke arguing in the comments

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

it doesn’t seem likes it’s been very effective at that so far. anyone up for an argument in the comments?

I saw you at the grocery store and you didn't put your cart away

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

oh yeah? well i saw you stick your gum under the table in a restaurant

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 7 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

The waitress saw me do it.

When I walked out of the restaurant, I told her "my name is affiliate@lemmy.world and you can go fuck yourself"

So you should probably avoid red lobster for a while

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 7 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

that waitress was my sister and she knows me better than that. they got your name from the card you used and put you on red lobsters most wanted list. you might want to lay low for a while.

I live on this shit and will not stop until I'm caught or killed.

I will consume as many cheddar biscuits as I can

I assume that's going too deep into artist motivation but you never know, they do make comics and those people can't be trusted.

There's at least one in my neighborhood, I think more, that have left piles in my yard. I need to set up a camera so I can rehydrate and aggressively return to the sender's front door.

Do you have a fence or trespassing signs?

[–] BassTurd@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I have a sidewalk that clearly delineates my yard and the sidewalk. Also, I have to maintain the sidewalk, so I'll record that all I want to. Don't want the possibility of being recorded on someone's security camera? Don't walk in front of people's houses. Welcome to 2024.

There's no law backing up what they're saying, it's just considered common courtesy to pick up your dog's poop if it poops in someone else's yard.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 6 points 18 hours ago

I'm not the person you replied to, but:

If they're on my property - which they are of their dog is taking a shit on my lawn - they're not "in public."

A man like this can't be stopped
