Shitting

[palsgraf_polka]

Today I saw:

1) A cow in a pasture shitting on my way to work. There was fog so we were going very slowly, and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the steam both A) coming off the poo pile on the ground, and B) actually coming out of the cow's ass.

2) This very very old Golden Retriever taking a dump on the lawn of the church across the street. Every morning, this middle aged man walks this dog, and I think it's bordering on cruel. The dog is so old and can barely hobble around, yet every morning he has to walk with his master. Who knows. Maybe the dog begs to go out and still enjoys it. I just hate seeing it.

3) On the 101 freeway, about 20 miles on my way home from the office, I saw a hitchhiker leave his spot on the side of the road, go about 2 feet into the high grass, drop trou and start to crap. Lovely.

So, I had a shit filled day.

Well, in Santa Barbara there are so many fucking dirty hippie hitchhikers that you have a tendency to see a lot of them on the beginning of their journey north to Santa Cruz and SFO and Humboldt, walking along the 101 North with their thumb out. This guy looks to have walked about 20 miles or so and apparently had to shit. What else can I say?

I know I saw a ton of public shitting when I was in San Francisco due to the absolutely batshit insane homeless situation there, but I don't recall seeing all that many hippie types the few times I was in the Los Angeles area.

Yeah but this is Santa Barbara, which might not be far from LA in terms of miles (only 80) but a universe away in terms of culture. Santa Barbara is like Santa Cruz and is infested with stinking dirty hippie people who hang out here before hitchhiking North. These types don't hang out in LA much. This is not a whacked out homeless kind of people like the homeless in LA or San Francisco.
