Click here to understand the true extreme nastiness of the problem.

france has not completely dealt with the problem of poo especially in the south of france (cannes, nice, antibes etc) where most people say it’s SO PRETTY THERE! there’s nothing grosser than stepping and sliding on a steaming mushy turd with high heels then slipping (a la monty python style) up into the air and landing in the offensive pile, brown splotching your freshly pressed WHITE silk skirt – on your way to a job interview – and you’re late.

or just stepping in it with your sneeks and getting dogjunk embedded and cemented into the treads, taking crap (and the smell of crap) with you where ever you go (like on a date. or in the CAR or cafe or meeting your (possible) future in-laws…) – until you can find something to clean it off with.

we shouldn’t be having this conversation. i know.

paris is really trying to get people to clean up their dogcrap act and for the most part, A FEW people do. (but this law has been clearly ignored in the south). these few people, too, are expatriots living in france who are used to being civilized.

if you talk about this to some french ppl, this is what i hear in general, ’stepping in zee pooh is verry verry gud luck.’

anyway.
