She came out and started yelling at me (before 8 am) about throwing things in her garbage can. I hadn't thrown a single thing in her (or anyone's) garbage can as my dogs hadn't done their business yet. Getting screamed at by some strange (crazy) woman is a great way to start the day. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-765290 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:36:36 +0000 booklaw 765290@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Homeowner, I was referring to poop bags deposited inyo my cans <u>inside</u> my gate.</p> <p>I agree totally with you when the cans are outside my gate. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-765289 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:27:19 +0000 whynot_31 765289@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Their avatars are default ones, which are randomly assigned for those who don't choose one of their own. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-765288 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 17:26:13 +0000 eastbloc 765288@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Your avatars are confusing. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-765284 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 16:16:10 +0000 mr. met 765284@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Incidentally, it's probably unlawful to leave your garbage uncovered outside your building. </p> <p>To reiterate, I only do it if there is no cover and if there is a bag in the can. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-765283 Mon, 04 Mar 2013 15:49:02 +0000 homeowner 765283@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Technically, I think that if the trash can/bag is inside a gate it is still private property and therefore you can't leave your trash in it.

I suppose I understand opposition to it (though yelling at someone is not the way to handle the situation -- if you don't want them doing it, ask them politely not to). I don't see the big deal.

A woman who lived across the street decided to yell at me, telling me to throw it in my own garbage. I yelled back at her.</p> <p>So what do you think? Is it okay to throw dog poo in open garbage cans on the street?</p> <p>I'm going to keep doing it, but I'm just curious what yall think. My logic is as follows: if people cover their garbage, I don't throw my dogs' poo in it; but if there is an uncovered garbage can right next to the sidewalk with a garbage bag in it, I'm gonna throw my dogs' poo in it. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/dear-stupid-hipster-douche-who-didnt-clean-up-their-dogs-shit#post-764792 Sat, 23 Feb 2013 15:27:48 +0000 whynot_31 764792@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>I think more information is needed before we conclude it was a hipster.
