It's not OK to put your dog crap in my wheelie bin

The bin men have changed our collection time its now late afternoon. DD2 and I went to the post office and when we came back bin emptied. All good so far. DD2 asks are we going to take the bin in but because I couldn't be arsed to wash my hands yet again, I said no leave it. Then I forgot about it until next morning.

Next morning went to retrieve bin and throw a black sack in and there in the bottom was ...... a package of dog poo.

Why?

If I wanted dog poo in my bin, I'ld have my own bloody dog. I am now the custodian of poop for a week. Why should I be just because I didn't take my bin in quick enough.

I suspect it was the woman who deliberately brings her greyhounds to the small greenward in front of my house to let her dogs have a crap and piss up the cherry trees. She lives about 2 minutes walk away. I suppose the doggy brigade will say be thankful she bags her dogs poo. So why then be so inconsiderate as to dump it in my bin.

Yes I'm annoyed.

Atleast the dogwalker actually binned the dog poo rather than leaving it on the pavement for some poor kid to stand in!

Blame the council, they should have more public bins available.

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 16:33

Dallas, it is bad manners because it isn't YOUR rubbish bin and it isn't a public rubbish bin. And putting your rubbish into someone else's bin without permission is rude.

Oh wouldn't it be fun to put a huge bag of highly illegal drugs into your bin and then tip off the police. Then you might not be so keen on having strangers dumping things in your bin...

Tantrums, people who disagree with me are not scumbags. People who think they have a right to dump their unwanted rubbish on other people are scumbags. Hope that helps...

Right, so your response to meanness is to be mean back Brycie ? To teach people a lesson?

That's what MN is for after all. For teaching people how to act.

anon yes, putting illegal drugs in a bin and then tipping off the police would be JUST LIKE putting dog poo in a bin.

On opposite day.

squoosh · 02/11/2012 16:35

Brycie I also suggested you sprinkle some valium on your cereal. Very good idea. Smile

Goodness, this passive aggression is so contagious!

Brycie · 02/11/2012 16:35

Yes - to show people what it's like when what they say is belittled and mocked. When people are scathing about it. It's not pleasant. Now you know.

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 16:35

Mines lovely I keep it right nice, flowers and a small but if carpet in the bottom.

Dont you everlong? minger

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 16:36

I love a bit of pag ag on a Friday Smile

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 16:36

Yes now we know Brycie . And we will pay for our sins.

Thanks for teaching us, oh mighty one.

MrsHoarder · 02/11/2012 16:36

If I hold the door for someone and they don't say "thank you", that has no effect on my life but is bad manners.

If someone bumps into me and doesn't apologise that also has no effect on my life but is bad manners

If someone drops their litter into my bin as they pass it has very little effect on my life but is bad manners.

squoosh · 02/11/2012 16:37

Consider me suitably chastened in the face of your towering intellect Brycie.

Smile
Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 16:37

But why not, Esme? If it's OK to put my rubbish in your bin, why can't I put drugs in there if I feel like it?

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 16:37

Just in case you've forgotten Brycie we're talking about a bin.

Frankly if anyone mocks my opinions on bins, I MIGHT be able to cope. Yes, I'll have a little weep that anyone would dare to belittle how I feel about my bin, but I'll probably, with time, get over it.

pumpkinsweetie · 02/11/2012 16:38

By bins are so minging i wouldn't even notice a dead rat in them as i choose not to want to look or smell whats in the bottom

Tbh cleaning wheelie bins is a waste of 30 mins of my life!
Did it last year, didn't make much difference.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 16:38

Anonymumous because possession of dogshit isn't a crime, mostly.

squoosh · 02/11/2012 16:38

Anonymumous I thought you'd toddled off in search of more 'refined' company.

pumpkinsweetie · 02/11/2012 16:39

I personally wouldn't do it, but it's better than being left on pavement surely?

BastardSpiders · 02/11/2012 16:39

"But it's a rubbish bin bastard not sure they can be clean and fresh, really."

I agree, but its isn't up to us to say whether or not other people should keep their bins clean. If they want to try and keep their bins clean then they have every right to do so (however daft it is).

The bin was issued to their house for their use, so if they want to keep their bin clean then thats up to them.

Brycie · 02/11/2012 16:39

I haven't taught you: I've shown you what it's like. If people can't take it, deciding to decamp as soon as it's directed at them - then they shouldn't dish it out. Plainly squoosh and Esme don't care.

PickledFanjoCat · 02/11/2012 16:39

Feel free I'll pm you my address.

Grin
squoosh · 02/11/2012 16:41

I would applaud any dog walker I saw placing their dog's bagged faeces in my bin. What a wonderful change from all the turds that litter my pavement.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 16:41

Don't care about what Brycie ?

You haven't shown me what anything's like. You've shown me that you are a little more interested in your bin than I am.

Anonymumous · 02/11/2012 16:42

Got any ideas, Squoosh? I thought Mumsnet was supposed to be full of Boden-wearing, organic-food-eating, upright, middle-class, stuck-up-their-bottom-types. Frankly I wasn't expecting to be more upright, middle-class and stuck-up-my-bottom than anyone else here. I don't know where to go now.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 16:43

Yet another ludicrous comparison.

You cannot compare putting a bag of poo into a wheelie bin to anything else. You cannot because we aren't talking about anything else

We are talking about poo.

Car theft and framing someone for the possession of drugs are so far away from bloody dog poo in your bin it is laughable.

And just goes to show why people are so upset by this subject if they view drugs and dog poo as the same thing.
