Seriously, WTF is wrong with some people.

Endlessly picking up poo really is the worst part of dog ownership...absolutely hateful. And the smug little sod just stands there admiring his good work, looking pleased with himself and you bend down and pick up his latest steaming offering with a little bag in your hand - before taking said turd for a walk before you come across a s
t bin.
Every time I see someone picking up after their dog, the dog always seems to be looking the other way, as if to say "Do you have to do that?".t bin. My concern would be that I'd only brought out plastic bags that have little holes punched in them to stop people suffocating themselves, then picking up a particularly runny one and having it all seep out in my pocket. As I haven't got a dog, this is unlikely to happen.
On a lighter note
About 14 years ago I was working in a Petrol Station and was asked to cover the night shift as the usual guy had phoned in sick. I'd be told under no circumstances do I let anyone in except Police officers.
All going well and pretty quiet when this one lad got out of a taxi and walked over to the window. This lad just kept asking to come in, giving all the usual reasons - "I want to see what food you've got" "I need the toilet" etc etc and wouldn't take no for an answer. The thing is, I knew that this lad lived literally one street away, less than 5 minutes walking!
Anyway, he starts carrying on and getting angry demanding to be let in and won't take no for an answer. He then says "Ok, I'll have a p*ss here then shall I?!" My response "Do what you want, I'm not letting you in".
Next thing I see if a Police car roll into the forecourt just as he's mid flow. I was really struggling to hold back the smile when they saw what he was doing and casually walked up behind him, hand on his shoulder and "What do you think you're doing?"
The look on this lads face was priceless! The two coppers made him scrub the pavement at the window in front of other customers (Taxi drivers mainly) that had turned up in the mean time and apologise to me, by this point I was biting my tongue to stop laughing.
The two Officers were rewarded with a free coffee and sandwich as reward for their impeccable timing. Before you ask, I asked the manager the next day about giving the Officers the food and drink and after watching the CCTV footage said it was fine

A few weeks ago I was driving along and saw traffic ahead slowing and then weaving all over the road. When I got closer I could see it was an animal of some sort they were trying to dodge and cars coming from the other direction were approaching too fast and a squish looked imminent. When I got really close it was tragi-comedy. A fox cub had a McD's soft drink cup (those big beaker things) totally jammed over its head and was running randomly about in the road.
I stopped the car, all the time expecting the little blighter to be squished at any moment but when I got near the cub darted into bushes and down an embankment by the side of the road. I couldn't just go as I was sure the fox would just end up back on the road again at some point. It was so young it obviously didn't even have the wherewithal to claw the thing off its face.
So I then spent the next twenty minutes crashing around in brambles. Every now and again I would see the cub but there was a happy ending. Eventually I got fairly close and to my amazement it wandered right up to me and stood stock still. It really was as if it knew someone might help. Without a word of a lie I just reached down and grabbed the cup and pulled it off the cub's head. Cub then did a Tom and Jetty eyes bulging impression (I probably did the same) and then it just charged off.

My car has a 12v plug (no lighter) and a rubberised tray with a no smoking sign moulded into it.
Ah. For coins etc. I use my ash tray for that, being a non-smoker. (Not bothered if people smoke in cars - given someone was talking about banning it, smoking seems to be the smell of freedom these days.)Hoofy said:
I was wondering what we could have in cars instead of ash trays because nobody appears to use them - was following some bint flicking her cigarette whilst driving along.
Mine usually has 3 money bags in it. One with the correct change for a return trip via the M6 Toll, one with the correct change for a return trip through the Dartford Tunnel and one with about £5 in various parking meter friendly shrapnel.It frees up the other pockets to store all my packets of fags and lighters in together with a couple of these babys

Unfortunately there is a mental deficiency in some. Last year on a local fresh water lake (it is not far from the sea so separating it from brackish or tidal) some kids were seen stoning some signets. They died. The family then left, notice that last bit, they were not on their own and with grown ups. There is a bird hide or three around this bit of water and I suspect that they were observed from the opposite side.
It is also the same place where dog walkers bag the usual. All well and good. Then they sling it in the hedge.
I challenged some yoofs stoning a duck and some ducklings on the local river, they muttered something along the lines "werent aiming for them" and "it was an accident" and wandered off. The other people walking on the bank were just shaking their heads but not doing anything.
I was out walking my dog last summer. We were close to the sea, but on the path. Anyway, she sees the path down to the beach and gives it legs (she loves the beach). Straight across the busy beach and into the sea. I'll concede she shouldn't have run away from me, but she's completely harmless, if disobedient.

I'm walking down the beach to retrieve her when some f
king scrote hurls a fking rock at her. It hits her square on the back. I went and spoke to the kid and his mum about what had happened. Did the kid's mother give a st? No, of course she didn't. I was within a gnats ballbag of picking up a rock and throwing it at the nipper, but that seemed to be dropping to their level. Some (most) people need exterminating.

Your post sort of reminds me of a situation that was quite tragic. A mummy grouse or something like that was trying to marshall her 12 or so chicks across a road into my village (approaching a 30 mph limit). As I approached the line of little birds crossing the road, I slowed and stopped.
As I waited, I saw a bloke coming the other way in a Jaguar of some sort. He seemed to be speeding up so I got out of the car and tried to wave him down. The tt looked at me, put his foot down and wiped out the trail of chicks.
I don't think I have ever been so angry in my life. As he went past he looked at me and smirked. I was shouting at him, the!
My fiancee and I scooped up the few we could see still moving and one died in her hands. To this day it still brings a tear to my eye. The little thing made a few chirping sounds, wheezed a bit and just went still.
I really hope the person in the car had or has a visit from Mr Karma. I couldn't believe what he did. He really was a fking !
