Why don’t residents in Uptown clean up after their pets?
I mean, am I the only person who dodges dog shit every time I go for a walk downtown?
Luckily, I’m totally paranoid about feces; I check my shoes all the time anyway. But when trekking across grass in Uptown Charlotte, I find myself moving at a snail’s pace as I attempt to spot a turd hidden in the turf.
So, look, here’s the point to my rant: Clean up after your animals, you nasty fuckers. You decided to be a pet owner and live in an urban setting. Be responsible dammit!
OK, I’m done. Peace.
