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.

OK, argument, discussion, whatever.

Saying gavel is pointless.

Dooin don't you take it to a spa as well? For fuck's sake, some people.

Yesterday I used the big milk container that I had just finished to pour water into my car's windscreen wiper thingy. I was on my way into town and couldn't be arsed to go back into my house to put the container into my recycling box, which I keep out the back, so I put it into my neighbour's box instead. He is too lazy to keep his where it should be, so it's in his front yard, which I was quite pleased about at the time. AIBU?

Beingblonde - yanbu because it was an empty milk container. It wasn't shit.

Beingblonde · 02/11/2012 14:44

Ah, so it's not about the wilful using of other people's bins then.

Beingblonde · 02/11/2012 14:44

Upthread, it was.

McHappyPants2012 · 02/11/2012 14:45

ponders where people put nappy when there dc was in them

BumpInTheNightFuglies · 02/11/2012 14:45

I reckon the OP went to fish out the dog poo and fell in the bin.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 14:49

Well, I am so concerned about the rubbish feelings I do not throw anything away.
I can no longer see my carpet but at least the rubbish is happy.

FFS. It's one small bag of poo. Bagged up in a dog poo bag and put into a bin that has been left out all night because the OP couldn't be bothered to wash her hands.

Perspective, people?

It's not going to contaminate the bin. The dog owner did not use a shovel and scoop it in un bagged.

If you are too damn lazy to take your bin in, I suppose people will assume you don't give a toss what's in it.

Splinters · 02/11/2012 14:50

Our bin doesn't smell (even though only emptied once a fortnight) because food waste gets collected separately. But when mingers come by and drop their minging crap that we're not expecting in the bottom of it, it starts to stink, and then one time it also got maggots and we had to spend our afternoon swilling the little pink wriggling bastards down the gutter. So OP YANBU.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 14:51

I love poo in bins so much that my entire family use the bin as a toilet. It gets us some looks from the neighbours, but hey, if you can't poo in a bin, where can you?

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 14:57

But esme do you let your neighbours use the bin to poo in as well?

Or do they have to poo in their own bin?

FedUpOfRain · 02/11/2012 14:57

There are some very uptight people on here! ITS A BIN that was left out and someone used it, shock horror! I'm assuming the OP is only going to add extra rubbish to the bin. The only slight potential issue i can imagine is if a bin man has to pull it out, but even then 'protective clothing' is used, it's bagged, and how do you think poo bins are emptied anyway?
What is gavel?

cumfy · 02/11/2012 14:58

So a question for those of YABU disposition:

Therefore, you won't mind your car being borrowed overnight, refilled and returned undamaged ?

That is, after all, is what cars are designed for.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:00

That is actually the most ridiculous comparison I've ever read. Ever.

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:00

cumfy I paid for the car. I might need the car in the night. I have some sort of feelings about potential damage to the car.

I do not have any feelings about my bin.

I don't have a car OR a bin anyway.

Tantrums NO that would be disgusting, I don't want someone else's poo in my bin.

cumfy · 02/11/2012 15:02

See ya.

FedUpOfRain · 02/11/2012 15:03

cumfy that is ridiculous...

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:04

Again. Worlds most ludicrous comparison.

And I don't leave my car outside my house at night Grin

ByTheWay1 · 02/11/2012 15:06

Someone stole my minging stinking wheelie bin so I paid for my new bin - it is my property.

  • I clean it every fortnight and would not be impressed to find a bag of poo in it when I got the hose out.

I have a dog and would not put a bag of poo in the bottom of a bin anyhow - you put heavy rubbish on top and the bag will split... ewwww.....

FromEsme · 02/11/2012 15:06

Look, Tantrums I'm going to come and move into your house and bring up your children and bone your husband.

It's EXACTLY like someone putting dog shit in your bin.

It.is.the.same.

TantrumsAndBalloons · 02/11/2012 15:07

Yes. It's exactly the same.

Silly me.

Dog poo in bin- stealing my life....yes I see it now.

cumfy · 02/11/2012 15:07

FedUp

There are some very uptight people on here! ITS A CAR that was left out and someone used it, shock horror!

LtEveDallas · 02/11/2012 15:07

So all the people who don't want bagged dog shit to 'contaminate' their bins - what do you do with your Sanitary Waste? Does that not get bagged and put in your bin? Is that not disgusting and contaminating your bin?

anklebitersmum · 02/11/2012 15:07

I just have a mental image of a small, poo filled black bag with a Paddington Bear style care label attached.

Not sure I'd appreciate it if next door put their dog poo in my bin..and we've got a big dog.

Can say that I definately wouldn't put our dog's poo in their bin tho Hmm
