Our submitter says this isn’t the first time her father has put up this display in his front yard…proving, I guess that some people will go through a lot of shit just to make a point. (Meanwhile, the neighborhood dogs and dog owners continue to go about their business.)

If he really wanted to be helpful, he would have packaged it in a paper bag and provided some matches.

I am SO doing this!
How could I not have thought of this?

I can imagine him painstakingly putting it into the ziplock bag, muttering to himself – “this will show them!”
And did he write on the bag itself before realizing that no one could read it? I really want to know what’s written on that bag now.
The pink ribbon is a nice – if random – touch. Does it serve a purpose?

Safety first! Someone might poke an eye out on that stick if it didn’t have a warning ribbon.

We have our own fertilizer, but thank you for the neighbourly gesture.

Is anyone else bothered by the use of Comic Sans?

Clearly someone hasn’t discovered that a cross-bow is much more effective in getting your “Pick up after your dog, please.” point across. Maybe he could find a better use for that stake? The ribbon is a little large for a garrote though…

Any bets on whether the owner (or rather, the owner’s owner) will claim it? Nah, didn’t think so.
I do sympathize with Dad, though….picking up poo is part of owning a dog. Don’t want to do it, don’t get one. Or, I suppose, buy a huge plot of land to allow your dog to run free and take a crap wherever he/she chooses on your own property.

Please, God…tell me he printed the sign then went out and collected the poop.
I can’t bear the thought of that baggie on the computer desk in his den.

I’d leave a human poop right on the dog owner’s yard. And by “leave” I mean I would produce it from my anus and deposit it immediately onto the lawn. None of this bagging it up for later. Not unless throwing the feces might be in order…

I always suspected Ziploc™ bags had a thousand and one uses. Now I know there’s a one thousand and second that makes me Glad® I’m only up to number twelve.

This is the shittiest exhibit I’ve ever seen on display. I mean, what kinda crap is this anyway?
I suppose this guy thinks it’s turdtastic, but I feel deep in my bowels a movement is beginning!
He could have just said “Scat!”, but no, he had to squat, flushed with anger, and collect it.

Can anyone tell for sure but the baggie looks like it has writing on it. What does it say?

Wait; looks like half the story is on the baggie. What does it say? It can’t be half as good as the version running through my mind. (Particularly because I’m convinced one of the words is “centaur”).

I usually take a dump on the hood of an offending dog walker’s car. Then when they start yelling at me, I tell them “It’s ok, im going to scoop it up when I’m done!”

It’s one of those bags isn’t it?; the type that decomposes when its held.

If the guy really wanted to make a point, he would take that bag down and stick it under the doormat of the dog owner. What an awesome squishy mess for his porch.

What makes you all think he knows who the dog owner is? If he’d seen the crime in progress, he would have said something then.

Woudn’t it have been easier to set up a camera to catch the crime in the act? Then he could take the poop and leave it on their doorstep.

It’s kind of like cutting off your nose to spite your face, isn’t it? I mean, the offending dog owners probably just think it’s funny, if they think of it at all. I’m guessing, given that they don’t clean it up in the first place, that they just don’t give a crap (if you’ll excuse the expression).

Love the pink flagging. Its seems to say, “Come look at my bag of poop! Just in case you didn’t see the big sign and bag of poop.”

If I saw this, I would be really tempted to take the baggie and leave it in his mailbox. Bonus if he has one of those openings that you slide a letter through.

What kind of dog poops that massively huge amount in one poop? That’s from a horse.

[...] to say, I don’t have a relevant poop story, but I did happen to see this sign on passiveaggressivenotes.com and thought I’d share. I’m very tempted to make a sign like this next time someone [...]
