Shit-seeker

About an hour ago, I decided to help out a friend on part of a project. My reason was purely selfish-- I'd rather have more time to hang out tonight with said friend tonight than to watch her do the project for most of the time. Because she still wanted to hang out.

And based on what she needs to get done tonight, I understand why she still wants to hang out. She is gathering images of dogs shitting and dog shit itself, but more just dogs shitting. A considerable number of images. (No, this is not the PROJECT, but is one component of many). So since we talked about this, I've been looking for them myself. Interesting, to say the least.

So far, my favorite is the pooping Barbie dog. Yeah, that's available now. I was a Barbie fanatic for a very long time, and let me just say that I would NEVER want such a thing. I was more into the ice cream shop. And into recreating concentration camp scenarios. I did a lot of things with orphans, too. Girl-on-girl stuff. Camping. I had the tent. People who were so poor they were dying of starvation and cold (wait, that's a similar theme to concentration camp). I made movie trailers. Runway shows, of course. Runaways. Neglected children. I never played with anyone else, except the FEW times my brothers were so bored that they would invade my private land. Then, they both got to be the Queen and would outfit my armoire (their palace) with crazy stuff like a real sound system consisting of a Discman or cassette player hooked up to miniature speakers (which they did actually have. They made all sorts of extraneous things then. Actually, still do.) Only other time they would "play" with Barbies would be when they would make miniature nooses to hang the poor dolls.

I loved playing with Barbies. Pretty sure I did it a lot longer than is average. Actually, I know I did.

Anyway, trip down memory lane here, but the point I was going to make was something about the experience of locating photos of dogs shitting. I don't enjoy it, but it is fascinating in a way. For example, I had no idea there was a "Poop Busters" business. Shit disposal. Have trucks and everything.

And of course I must say it: pick up your dogs' crap, people.
