Ad for free manure

[poppy]

Here is the kind of thing that happens in my backyard.

That's a pretty crappy posting, Poppy. 

Note that if it's in your back yard, you may want to do something about it soon.

[Squirl]

I'm sorry poppy.

He "needs" to give it away.

Is it considered fertilizer if it not composted?

On a side note, it is usually considered tremendously dangerous to use uncomposted waste from meat eating animals as fertilizer.

[glenn kangiser]

Poppy, I suggest you first check to see if he is a vegetarian... It said nothing about having to rinse out the buckets?

[StinkerBell]

Poppy making a post like that and I want to call you Poopy.

[glenn kangiser]

[Sassy]

I don't even know why I clicked on the ad, because clearly they are trying to disguise the fact that it is human waste.

Curiosity got the better of me, and then I just had to share. 

Even if they said it was composted, I can't imagine anyone taking them up on the offer unless you could keep the buckets. 

Well Stinker, I have been called gassy, but never poopy.

Now I'm tempted to answer the ad just to find out where this clown is.

[RainDog]

It's a joke, right?

It's not?

[firefox]

Probably not.

[poppy]

OK, I have responded to the ad. 

[StinkerBell]

You actually responded?! Oh that is funny, but now you are from this point on know to me as Poopy.

[glenn kangiser]

Poopy and Stinky, now that's a pair.....

      I have just lost lunch . . .   What kind of person would even think about posting an ad like this?

I'm still not convinced it's not all a joke, but if not it sure sound less like humanure than "night soil".

Isn't that a nice thing to call it? "Night soil". Magical, fanciful, and sparkling. If you eat some it enables you to fly.

Or something...

   Thanks for the link . . .

Poppy:
   Make sure that there has been enough time for all pathogens to be destroyed before use.  And then a second stage is needed so all phytotoxins are gone before it is used on crops . . .

   How are you sure all pathogens and phytotoxins are destroyed?  I suggest the finger licking test . . .

   (Insert your favorite potty joke here . . . )

If your dog won't roll in it, it's probably safe.   

[glenn kangiser]

My dogs would probably kill themselves trying to eat it all....

"Isn't that a nice thing to call it? "Night soil". Magical, fanciful, and sparkling. If you eat some it enables you to fly."e

Probably coined by the same person that came up with "honey bucket".

My uncle was here Thursday through Saturday.  He has a manure spreading business in Wisconsin.

I told him he needs to get one of those signs that says, "It may be s--t to you but it's my bread and butter."

Somehow in his short visit here, he became convinced that I was actually crazy....

I haven't seen him in about 50 years.  He's cool. He's about 7 years older than me.

"It may be s--t to you but it's my bread and butter."

I know it may come as a shock to some of you, but I used to be in the poo-poo business, so Glenn here's the correct quote for the sign:

"It may be s--t to you, but it's bread and butter to me."  Much better grammartically. 

[Redoverfarm]

Poppy I sent you a PM.

[glenn kangiser]

Wait a minute, Poppy.... we got to use proper grammar here? hmm

Bayview, gimme  break, please...
