Holy Crap!

As of this month, the New York City Parks Department has raised its fine for not picking up your dog’s poop from $100 to $250.

It’s a good thing, too. According to the New York Post, there were 909 violations issued in the city for unattended doo-doo between July 2007 and June 2008.

I fully support fines for this type of shit (sorry, couldn’t resist). I mean, seriously, who really wants their shoe—whether it’s a stiletto, sneaker, or ballet flat—soiled with feces? The streets of New York are smelly enough in the warm summer months. You certainly don’t need to trip on a turd to make your day any worse.
