Who does these things?

maybe it’s similar to my friends wide eyed mystification about dropping cigarette butts 25 years ago. I dropped butts on the floor if there wasn’t a street ashtray nearby. I said where else would I put it? She said in a bin. I said I’m not always comfortable doing that as butts relight quite often and also there isn’t often a bin around anyway.

She asked why I didn’t put it in my pocket and carry it to a bin. I said because I don’t want my coat to smell or possibly catch fire.

She couldn’t get her head around this and considered butts the same as any other rubbish. I didn’t, and was buoyed on by the fact I saw so many smokers doing the same so was also of the mindset that butts belonged on the floor.

You make it sound like it is okay to do that.

It isn't.

I think this is exactly why people don’t answer these posts OP. You don’t want to know who and why, you want to create one big name calling telling off thread to make those who participate feel shit about themselves.

I bought extra loo roll during Covid! About 9 rolls extras

i thought everyone knew by now that there wasn’t actually a rush on loo roll in the classic sense but because loo roll is an excellent product for just in time ordering, with very predictable consumer buying behaviour, it couldn’t cope with a marginal blip.

I agree. I've never (in over 35 years of dog ownership) had to hang a poo bag in a tree and I walk miles of remote countryside with no bins until you get back to civilisation. I just take a carrier bag and bung the multiple poo bags in there. Easier to carry and can carry multiple bags. Tie on the lead or carry in one hand. I have large dogs as well. The inconvenience of carrying filled dog poo bags goes with dog ownership. Why should others have to look at swinging bags of shit on their own walk? It's gross -and even with scented bags, you can smell faint wafts of shit. That's my issue as its my dog, I don't inflict that on others.

People fly tip here because you're not allowed to go to the tip if it's outside your county. If you're near the border, it can be a 45 minute drive to your own tip, but you can't use the one 5 minute's away. So one particular country road gets a lot of fly tipping.

Yak at the poo trees. Do you think other walkers want to walk past that scene?

Very much linked to fly tipping but why do people get a McDonalds takeaway, neatly pack away the rubbish inside of the bag, begin driving and THEN dump it out of the car window? Either put it in the bin where you are eating it or take it home. There is no reason to throw it out of the window!

Toilet tissues take up a lot of space on a retail shelf especially the multi packs . You only have to sell a few extra and the stocks look decimated. People then panic, discuss it on social media and it snowballs.

I watched an older lady push her used poo bag into a hedge.
She frequently does it.
I'm in a town with lots of bins.

I literally just saw this beautiful artwork being advertised on face book 😂 please stop hanging dog poo in trees

Believe what you want.
I can only tell you what happens in my world (and yes, I paid my cleaner too).

I'm not a landlord and I don't give Christmas bonuses though.

I absolutely loathe littering and fly tipping and would never consider doing either. I live in a lovely part of the world and it enrages me to see fly tipping and litter.

That said, the local public bins and small recycling drop off area are consistently overflowing. The local council no longer does any free uplifts (each household used to get 2 per year). Paid uplifts are very expensive and you have to wait at least 3 months (I called them last week about a bed I was replacing). General waste uplifts have moved to every three weeks. The local dump requires you to reserve an online slot and it is often booked up weeks in advance.

So ultimately what I’m trying to say is given all of the above I can understand why it is more prevalent now than previous years.

No...they just plan not to be caught.

I live close to a park. I'm sick of bags of dog excrement being thrown over and under my hedges.

The poo bag mystery is easy. My dog usually poos within 2 mins of starting a walk. I hang the bag on a branch , so it’s out of the reach of children then pick it up in the way back to the car/start. Otherwise I’m carrying for 3-4 miles and if I’m trying to control my dog it can get a bit messy if it gets wrapped up in the lead.
Most of the walks I take don’t have poo bins every 100m, if at all.
I always remove it on my return. If the dog poos on the walk then I have to carry it and double or triple bag it.
As for the toilet rolls, not guilty. It did produce some hilarious jokes though.

And here's my confession @GeorgianaM

Who are the people that voted Labour in?

Me! And I'd do it again.

I'm impressed that people are confessing

A colleague of mine did this. I genuinely think she felt everyone else owed her this for the pleasure of her company.

The loo roll thing was more complicated than just pure selfishness. I think it was a combination of two things:

I)we were all using more loo roll at home and less at work, restaurants etc. But the commercial market is a totally different supply chain with giant rolls etc. So people needed to buy more loo roll for home, from the domestic, supermarket loo roll market.

II) this then meant it ran out. So people panicked and bought a pack just in case. I know I bought a basket of food I wouldn't have usually bought on my way home from my last day in the office. Normal reaction to uncertainty. And then because it's become rare people do buy when they see it. I know I got tempted when I saw some (I didn't buy it!) because it had suddenly become this big deal.

III) "I can sell this £2 pack for a tenner" mentality. "If I don't I'm losing £8. So I must buy the lot." But I think they were a small part of it. And unless you are on the breadline I judge you for that.

Same!

I have never seen a dog poop bag hung in a tree. WTF. That's weird.

And I hooked up a bidet.

On our village FB a lady had posted a picture of her badly cut hand.

Some idiot(s) had stuck Blu Tack inside the dog poo bin, then embedded shards of glass into the Blu Tack, so when she put the poo bag in the bin.......

As oranges said "who are these people?"
