Pick Up The Poo!
FOUND by Dave Emo
in Morningside, Edinburgh, Scotland. UK
I found this stuck to a wall outside a fancy apartment block. Obviously somebody got sick of their neighbours dog pooping in the street! I love the colours and the scroll effect behind the text.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I wonder if the finder of this has a long black fringe and wears eyeliner.
What! That is defamation of character...I'll have you know I am not an emo... My nickname has been emo for over ten years and is an abbreviation of my surname Emmerson. Anyway thanks for publishing my find Found Magazine, you rule!
Wow how long has thin-skinned Dave been waiting for his find to be posted? If only he could have checked 39 minutes earlier he could have been first."Or I will get you"? Get you what? Maybe a doggy bag, new shoes, a bite on the neck? So cryptic.
Another haiku attempt gone awry?
Shouldn't there be a reference to The Rock Steady Crew? It would add something to the scansion. Morningside...dontcha just love it! (Well, the fraction of a percentage of site visitors who know it.)
Come get me, then. It isn't even my poo.
hey you
take this sign
thank you
There once was a dog who did poo
I stepped and it stuck on my shoe
I'll write you a poem
That won't work? I'll throw 'em!
Then you will surly say "Ew!"
this is from hallmark's new line of cranky greeting cards
We dont need no poo education.
We dont need no poo control.
No dark sarcasm out on the sidewalk.
Neighbor, leave those poo's alone.
Hey, Neighbor, leave those poo's alone!
All in all its just another poo in the street.
All in all its just another poo in the street.
Pick up your dog poo
Or I'll get stabby on you
It's just what you do
Wasn't that a song by DEVO? "Pick Up the Poo?"
pick up the poo!
or I will get you
thank you!
So put your hand in your plastic glove
And cover up your nose
Don't leave that crap laying around
Pick up the poo! pick up the poo! pick up the poo!
The way that we weren't is what we'll become
So please pay attention while i show you some
Of what's about to happen
Pick up the poo!
I know what you do
and I will get you!
Laugh if you want to or say you don't care
If you cannot see it you think it's not there
It doesn't work that way
I stepped in it today
pick up the poo!
or I will get you
thank you!
You cant having any poo if ya dont eet yer meat!
The maker of the sign needs to work on their complamentery colors a little more, looks like they almost nailed it though.
I mean have not having totally ruined that reference!
I am making several copies of this and posting it all over my townhouse neighborhood.
@Johnny, yes, that song is etched under the paper record label on the 7" single, Beautiful Turd.
Great comments!
I am distracted by the note: I'd ensure the three scrolls are the same size and I'd center the words in each scroll: I'd put "Thank you!" in the middle as opposed to the top of the scroll.
I'd incorporate a few choice cuss words.
Hey You! (dumbass muthafucka!)
Clean up your own dog's shit!
Or you're bound to get hit!
(are you down with it?)
It doesn't mention the variety of the poo anywhere. It could be a cat's poo or a racoon's poo, if it were found on a rock.
Pick it up and wear it like a poo hat!
Is it poetically legal to rhyme "you" with "you"?
Thanks for sending a Find and saying hello, Dave Emmerson!
Knock knock. Who's there? Emmerson. Emmerson who? Emmerson big piles of poo you got there! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
(LOL @ DogBreath! that's baaaaad!)
Johnny Rotten, so is that an actual song that you quoted? It makes me think of the Styx song, Plexiglass Toilet. (hidden track on the Serpent is Rising)
...Wipe the butt clean with the paper
Make it nice for everyone...
What was with those guys?
@ lost in the '70s. Just my take take on Devo's song "Peek-a-Boo". That's what popped into my head when I read the find. Look for the video on youtube, it's truly twisted.
To be sung to the tune of
Hey
You
Get off-a my Cloud!
by an ageing Rolling Stone who is now more concerned about the cleanliness of his neighbourhood than about knocking over young ladies or providing an alpha-male role model for schoolboy rockers in black leather.
