I put on flip flops, grabbed a paper towel, walked outside, picked up the shit and said, "Hey, wait a second!" and dropped it right in front of them and walked off. Should have thrown it at them.

No one likes these neighbors anyway, so I was willing to deal with the awkwardness after that.

chico - i have so many empty jars i dont know what to do with them.

malcolm - almost exact situation. i have an end townhouse and along the pathway next to my house there is a ton of dog poop, same size (medium) and consistency etc.

a couple weekends ago im watching tv and through my backdoor i see a medium size dog take a squat kinda on my property kinda not. the guy has no indication of picking it up. i walk out and ask if he needs a bag. he says no and produces one.

2 days ago, i had a medium size poop right behind my car.

today i walk out and there are 2 medium size poops within 5 feet of my front door (def on my property).

i dont know what my response should be. i could easily smash this guy but at 37 im not trying to go that route. i could put all my dogs poop on his front door but that is just asking for a continual cycle of poop related retaliations.

ive decided (if i can pull this off), to approach him in a friendly "hey neighbor i have a 3 year old, there are a ton of kids in the neighborhood, can you please pick up after your dog".

pretty sure when i catch him i am going to curse him and probably punch him. once.

or my dog "fights" other dogs. maybe i should open the door to say something and just let my dog run out ....
