SudsyFist 0 #2 December 2, 2005 Not cool... The ground level of my building is a all townhomes that border the sidewalk. A group of the residents down there got tired of dogs' peeing and pooping in their microgardens whilst on their daily walks, so a few of them got the ingenious idea to install a motion activated doggy-be-gone alarm. Problem solved, right? Fuck. I love living downtown. I love walking everywhere I need to go. And every time I pass this fucker's patio, I'm drilled by a shrill shriek which I can only describe as feeling like I'm getting skull-fucked by an ice pick, from the inside. So last night, I brought a baseball bat with me and took the thing out like a fucking clown-shaped piñata on my 7th birthday. Well no, not really. I had a polite talk with the residents a few months ago and brainstormed some alternatives. They took the alarm down and now just put out a little trough full of antifreeze instead.

ltdiver 3 #3 December 2, 2005 Guess you're not a real skydiver, then, are you? We all have horrible hearing from the drumming noise of our planes! I think the alarm is a great idea (the one in my post above). They interviewed teenagers who use to loiter around the shop (even when asked to leave) and they said the alarm wasn't that horrible. They could come and shop but it was enough to not to let them hang around for long. Sounds like it is a bit different than your doggie-deterant. Oh, and btw, antifreeze will attract dogs to drink it...and it kills them. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
