I clean up other people's dog's poop when I am walking my dog. There can be zoonotic parasites in dog and cat stool. Also, it gives a bad name to dog walkers when someone doesn't clean up after their pet.

I clean up my own dog's poop, but I don't go for other people's. That's where I stop. :-) It's admirable that you do it, though!

I cut the plastic rings but I wont pick up someone else's litter. I may kick stuff out of the way/off a path but too many.

Hats off to those of you good citizens that do pick up litter. There are just some things I can't do. I admire you all. :-)

I was crossing a crosswalk once and a woman in the car right next to me threw a crumpled piece of paper out of her window and onto the street. I picked it up, said, "Oops. you dropped something", and tossed it back in her car and it went into the back seat.

She said.....well, I can't tell you or I'll get modded!

I was out front working in the yard. There was a car parked at the curb. A woman was in the passenger seat applying lipstick. She blotted her lips on a kleenex and dropped it out the window right in front of me. She smiled smugly. I can still see her face. She was in an expensive car. I had to pick up her trash. She was a very stupid person.

When my dad was still driving, he would dump all the garbage from inside the car in whatever parking lot we stopped at (fast food wrappers, newspaper, gum/candy wrappers, whatever). I never understood this because we grew up not being allowed to litter, yet there he was littering. We'd always pick it up and get mad at him for doing it. Plus, there was always a garbage can just a few feet away that he could have used. He continued to do this through the day that we stopped him from driving. Now, if he does it from my car, I make him pick it up and throw it in a recepticle.

LOL Sanfran!!!

Now if I saw someone littering like you and Dogdoc I would do the 'you dropped something' and if they still ignored it they would get the look and snide comment from me....but I still couldnt pick it up. I get the chills thinking of it

I do pick up litter, but I just can't touch anything that looks too gross. There's always "stuff" floating around our yard especially on recycling days. I don't know who had the "brains" to design paper recycling bins w/o tops in a climate like ours. Then there's always the tossed bottles, etc. I guess I'm thinking of out at a busy area and there's just some stuff that would be too gross to me. I'll spare you all from the descriptions. :-)

If someone did it right in front of me, esp. my property, I'd say something like, "What do you think you're doing?" and then I'd tell them to get their butts out of their car and pick it up. If they're walking, I'd yell at them and tell them to get back here or I'll call the police. I really get fed up with teens who think it's "cool" to do things like that. I used to be afraid they'd do some kind of payback, but I've gotten to the point where I don't care anymore and guess what, if you're firm enough, they don't retaliate. Wish I learned that earlier on. LOL

The lady with the lipstick kleenex was in her 50's. She lived in the condo across the street. Her boy friend had come to pick her up. He was very nice. He talked to me before he went in to get her. When they came out, he opened the passenger door for her and she got in. As he walked around the front car to get in she dabbed her lips and dropped the kleenex. She looked me in the eyes when she dropped it and smiled. I didn't want to embarrass him.

California has a litter hotline. If you see someone dump trash out of their car, you call the hotline with the license number of the car, and they receive a letter warning them. While it's not a citation, it just might put the fear of Big Brother in someone.

Dogdoc, you're much nicer than I am. If I knew where she lived, I'd have known just what to do with that Kleenex. Of course, any other litter I found would be assumed to be hers as well.

I'm sort of sad to see CJ go. He was more tolerable than the other males on this show, for me.

I was surprised at who won the photo shoot competition. I did not think Joel's photo was the best. And, I agreed with CJ and the other person who felt the photographer didn't pick the best photos out of the shoot. It almost seemed selective to me, like they picked bad ones for certain contestants.

I don't know, this show seems so staged to me. It's not nearly as good as Beauty and the Geek (same producers/creators, I think).

I agree that bad pictures were picked so they could put Billy and CJ at the bottom. Their pictures really were off. These judges are so stiff. It really looks like they're reading cue cards.

It occurred to me that CJ had to go because he had already been to the finals twice. How many times can even a "beautiful" person walk past an incident just as they enter the studio and not have their antenna up? Didn't he see the bike wreck, the litter bug and lost child? I'd be suspicious.

Can't say i'll be watching anymore CJ to me was the only person that really has inner beauty,and maybe Chelsea.

I think some of these challenges are sometimes not the same for everyone,the circumstances are not always the same,like with the older people getting the chairs to sit down,I can't remember who it was but they were already getting their make-up done,were they suppose to get up in the middle of getting it done,the past couple weeks have been like that.

I wonder if they made sure he left cuz he seemed to catch on they were looking for inner beauty and they were afraid he would tell others. Kinda like on the 2nd Joe Schmo when the girl was figuring out the premise

It just seemed like it was intentional that he was put in the bottom again (CJ). I can understand them wanting him gone since he was in the bottom again, it's just that it felt like it was intentional.

I think they wanted two males in the final two this time to make sure another girl did not go home. If his editing showed his worst attitude then they could of picked someone else. When he was upset about the picture he had alright to be. In his opinion he was in his house. He didn't through a hissyfit in public. Even at the end they main clips they had to show his worst nontrue beauty were from two shows ago.

I agree that CJ had to go cuz he was starting to catch on to the inner beauty thing.

I haven't watched last night's show yet (I only checked out the ending on my DVR), but I have to say I'm probably just gonna erase it. It's too phony. The judges are horrible, and I'm really tired of the fake pout that Vanessa pulls out (BTW, how the heck did she get this job?). And again, Cheryl is mostly useless as a judge, isn't she?

I can understand and appreciate the concept of this show. It's the execution that's lacking. And fortunately, there are so many better shows on TV now, that I don't need to waste time watching stoopid shows.

Unbelievable the photo they chose of CJ. Agreed that the fix was in. I was so proud of him for not coming unglued when Billy called him "Boy". During the photo shoot, I saw some wonderful opportunities for awesome pictures and if the photographer couldn't capture them, then he needed to be fired.

Billy won me over last night when he talked to that little girl. He completely forgot about himself and was going to stay and help her. All this when he was on his way to possibly be thrown off the show. ((Billy))

Quotes from Joel during the photo shoot segment: "It's a fact, you get ugly as you get older." "What the hell did I just sign up for?" "How does this coordinate with being beautiful?" What a guy!

Ugh so not watching anymore. CJ was the best thing on the show.
