To think that humans who shit in the woods should clean up after themselves?

It's pretty revolting when your dog dives into the trees and starts eating human shit. People usually leave something behind which they've been wiping their bum with. People are always moaning about leaving dog poo behind, but little is said about human excrement.

To be fair I think you're more likely to find dog shit in a wood than you are human shit. In a dog-shit-bloody-everywhere versus random-human-turd-in-a-wood contest, the dog shit would win fairly easily.

You're quite sure it wasn't bear shit?

slowestwildebeast · 11/03/2012 15:53

:) where do you live? I wouldn't mind living in the woods, maybe your dog scared them mid poo?

AKissIsNotAContract · 11/03/2012 15:54

How do you know it was human shit?

Thankgodforcaffeine · 11/03/2012 15:54

I thought only bears did that?

troisgarcons · 11/03/2012 15:54

Is this a common occurance your way?

And the best thread title of the day goes to...

EasyToEatTiger · 11/03/2012 15:55

The parks in East London are heaving with human shit. Bears don't often wear knickers. Not the ones I've seen anywayGrin

I was once walking into the city centre and in the middle of the pavement of a very busy road there was a turd with a piece of loo roll stuck on the top.

I'm glad I didn't see it get there.

"The parks in East London are heaving with human shit." Tell me that's not true Shock. Does Boris know? What's he doing about it?

higgle · 11/03/2012 15:59

I came across one in an aisle in Asda at Bristol Cribbs Causeway!

It does beg the question where the homeless do their business ... I don't suppose McDs wants an endless stream of vagrants wandering during the rush hour ....

EasyToEatTiger · 11/03/2012 16:01

Who cares? I just think people ought to clean up after themselves like they are expected to clean up after their dogs.

There was something on the news a couple of days ago re. councils closing more and more public toilets.

There'll be more shit in them there woods soon...

troisgarcons · 11/03/2012 16:05

I haven't seen a council owned public toilet in years. They were all sold off round these parts and turned into peculiar little hosues >urrgh

LookAtAllTheseFucksIGive · 11/03/2012 16:06

Any person shitting in public probably isn't too concerned with toilet etiquette. If it wasn't for that slack sphinctered secret shitter then we'd never have seen this thread and its improbable title. YABU.

youarekidding · 11/03/2012 16:06

We once found a human turd in the early years playground in the special needs school where I work. Just as will we found it before our pupils - many of them will eat anything. Grin

youarekidding · 11/03/2012 16:07

BTW it was from someone at night doing it - not a pupil - we found it at 8am. Shock

EasyToEatTiger · 11/03/2012 16:12

What exactly is Toilet Etiquette? What would the clean-up operation be called? Dogs have poo bags; babies have nappy sacks. Fully grown people have...? What would you buy in the shop?

Well I'd say the number 2 rule would apply. 'If you wouldn't pick it up then don't leave it behind.' :o

Serious question, where would you clean it up to? What if you don't have a trowel so you cant bury it? Confused

GeraldineHoHoHobergine · 11/03/2012 16:20

I found a turd in the la stone therapy warm stone heater at the spa I once worked in. Someone had pissed in the bin in the sun bed room too. It takes all sorts.

MissTapestry · 11/03/2012 16:22

When I shit in the woods my dog cleans up after me. Seems only fair really Grin

SnapesMistress · 11/03/2012 16:24

Someone once dropped trou and shat in the sweet aisle when I worked at Woolies and then walked out. We were Shock and Envy

LookAtAllTheseFucksIGive · 11/03/2012 16:26

Someone shat in the spin dryer in my local launderette years ago. Its still spoken about to this day.
