FTC #132: Beware of dog by themushroom 3-25-08

Hi Melvin. So, Chen, what are you doing in my backyard? Dude, we live in a duplex. We share a backyard. And you are on my side of it. Oh... So, Chen, what am I doing in our backyard? Looks like you are taking a shit on the lawn that you will blame on my dog. My dachshund doesn't make turds that massive and never eats corn, peanuts & carrots. Be happy you don't have a cat. I'd be loading up its box.
