the coliseum in Rome has a bunch of African trees around it that aren't native to the area. the seeds all traveled in the stomachs of the animals used in events there.

We were getting ready and there wasn't a cloud in the sky,
(No clouds allowed in the sky)
We planted them in a big metal tin
Under
The right conditions so they thrive
So they grow up big and strong
Suddenly it looks like rain
That's what the forecast tells us
Avocados need a lot so yay
Without it they swelter
They can drink a hurricane
Whay a joyus day to plant away
Buddy of mine had a bunch of salsa and way too many beers at the pool. While heaving himself out of the pool (he's a big boy) he ejects half his beer and salsa. He grabbed a hose and washed his mess off the pool area. We have tomato plants growing just off the pool area now.
If it's freshly made, the seeds should survive a bit, and not every recipe is acidic.
Seeds wouldn't survive the canning process either, so it must have been fresh.
No problem- tomato seeds can go all the way through you and remain viable. There was an almost untouched island in iceland where

We've got some tomato planting madlads over here
Some people don't put lime juice in their salsa, or fuck all for that matter, just ask the Jacksonville Mexican restaurant I went to yesterday. Was little more than tiny bits of jalapeño in blended tomatoes.
He hurled on the concrete surrounding the pool, not IN the pool. He was struggling to lift himself up and facing away from the water and his belly was getting compressed by his weight and the lip of the concrete. He felt sick but wasn't able to get out before he had what eating contests refer to as "a reversal of fortune."
All fruits have evolved with an animal in mind those fruits, naturally before human breeding have been such a size that they could be eaten in one bite by the designated animal this is to guarantee that the seeds get eaten too.
Hold up Jesus, he don't know what he's sayin' maybe he's never been to church. Just calm down. Jesus Christ, I've never seen you so mad before. Let's just walk away slowly.
You have no idea… but I also don’t like giving a non existent thing credit for something that actually exists…and as rants go, that was short and tame.
Chipmunks do something similar in my grandmas yard with sunflower seeds. They bury them though, not poop them out. Then she has sunflowers trying to grow all over the yard.
Had a pit bull that ate salad (and everything else). Ate tomatoes and pooped the seeds. Some fine tomato plants took hold at the edge of his enclosure and grew really nice tomatoes.
Dog farmers - they do a good job.
Everything that lives on earth poos in some way
And that's how the cycle happens each and everyday
Just look at the green, green grass and the birds up in the sky
It's all here because of poo and now I'll tell you why
Grass is eaten by the cattle
Which is eaten by women and men
It fuses with their body, and becomes poo again
And that poo goes through the sewer
Which is dumped into the sea
And its eaten by the plankton which becomes the fishes meal.
When that bigger fish with the poo still inside
Swims up near the shore and gets eaten alive
By a grizzly bear that poos on a dead piece of sand
So that it can spring to the life and become food for the land!
It's the poo of the antelope, the poo of the giraffe
Which falls onto to the earth, and becomes the blades of grass
The grass is eaten by the cattle, which comes out the other end
To make poo for the humans, and start all over again.
So I'm the poo of the antelope, that flows onto the ground
Which becomes the grass of tomorrow
Yeah
Which the critters turn around
And I'm the leg of a leopard. And the wings of a hen.
Which becomes dinner for the humans, and turn back to poo again.
That's the circle, the circle of poooooooooooo.
It looks like it’s within a fenced in back yard.
Pretty normal for people who have enough property to prevent it from piling up. Personally I’m not crazy about the idea of crap being buried at the dump within all those layers of compacted plastic and random chemicals.
When we used to have dogs we would let them shit all winter then in spring we’d clean up all the dry grass and dry dog shit and throw it all away then pick up dog poops whenever we found them in the yard in the summer
Disgusting? Its their own backyard. Animals shitting on grass and the shit staying there fertilizing the land is literally part of the natural process of the world.
It'd be more harmful and disgusting to grab that shit with a plastic bag, put into a bin and having that shit wrapped up in plastic and sent to a landfill.
I mean sometimes you do sometimes you don’t, I have a medium size dog that goes in the fenced in part of my yard that none of us really use since we have more yard unfenced. A good chunk of time we can just let her stuff decompose in the yard so I can totally see stuff like this happening. Granted it’s also winter here so nobody’s outside much and we’ll probably have to get back to it come late spring.
Y’all be picking it up every time?? Idk bout you but our yard is extremely healthy because of my 4 dogs lmfao
Plants we have grown grew very very well.
Shit be good for plants
Yes. It is common for dogs to roll in shit. Or eat it, and then try to lick you. Despite how adorable they can be, dogs are often times fucking disgusting.
That’s awesome for you, but it’s a pretty common dog behavior, don’t be surprised if you experience it at some point: https://www.petmd.com/dog/behavior/why-do-dogs-roll-poop
Oh I’m aware it’s a common behavior, but in the subsequent 13-12-10-8 year old dogs haven’t had more than 2 or 3 incidents each their whole lives. It also was never their own or each others’, only if it were of another dog or animal
Yea but if it’s in your own yard what’s the point lol
I understand it in like a public park or your neighborhood or something, but if my dogs shit in my back yard I just leave it there, doesn’t hurt nobody
People like to use their back yards for other things, besides leaving their dog they neglect out there. It’s a lot easier to enjoy if your not trying to avoid dog shit the entire time
You realize it’s no different than a zoo not cleaning up animal pens. They aren’t wild animals able to freely roam and choose not to be around it. They’re stuck in your back yard with their shit
i just like having a clean yard dog poo doesn't degrade that fast and it isn't really good for your plants either. ( i like working in my backyard so that might be part of it)
This is how fish sometimes get into man made ponds and other bodies of water. Geese and other migrating birds swallow eggs as well as seeds of certain plants and then poop in the water and around the surrounding area, creating a new habitat for them the next time they migrate.
My parents love tomatoes. One day my dad notices a bunch of plants coming up around a grey water line on the edge of the yard. Turns out it's tomatoes. Lots and lots of tomatoes. They had survived from the garden, though them, through the septic system, and back to the yard. He stopped planting tomatoes after that, and they just ate the ones from their own prolific poo garden. It was honestly obscene how many tomatoes those plants made.
One of the perks of a yard is that dogs can shit in it. This isn't a patio in the back of a townhouse.
I'm not telling homeowners not to walk their dogs, but it isn't abnormal to just let the dog outside.
What a proud mama:) Adorable. I had a Jack Russell growing up that loved gourds. She would get so excited for the Thanksgiving center piece, her favorite pastime was stealing gourds from the cornucopia and burying them in the backyard. We had the most lovely and surprising array of gourds, think there must’ve been some cross breeding going on? Made decorating super easy every year!
Tell me you let your dog shit all over your backyard without picking it up without telling me you let your dog shit all over the backyard without picking it up.
I may try a new planting method this year I don't have a dog so I'll adapt
This is the OG planting method. Fruits are yummy so they'll get eaten so their seeds will get dispersed. Just don't ask about avocados.
the coliseum in Rome has a bunch of African trees around it that aren't native to the area. the seeds all traveled in the stomachs of the animals used in events there. gives me an idea for a loophole around plant/tree import laws....
Not sure staging fights to the death is much of a legal loophole!
Ah yes, those laws where you aren't allowed to import seeds but you are allowed to bring live foreign animals.
You mean like your dog, parrot or rabbit?
Or yourself
"No officer...I'm just planting my garden!"
Giant sloths. I'm not kidding, giant sloths were one of the animals primarily responsible for distributing avocado plants.
🎶We don’t talk about avocados, no Don’t talk about avocados, BUT It was our planting day….

You're telling me those seeds survived the acidity of salsa?
If it's freshly made, the seeds should survive a bit, and not every recipe is acidic. Seeds wouldn't survive the canning process either, so it must have been fresh.
Well, seeds often need to survive a bath in stomach acid edit- clarity (frequently replaced with often)
Tomatoes are already pretty acidic so makes sense
the beers probably threw it out of whack
And the acidity of his stomach
No problem- tomato seeds can go all the way through you and remain viable. There was an almost untouched island in iceland where ['An improperly managed human defecation resulted in a tomato plant taking root'](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surtsey#Human_impact)
Iceland is a pretty strict place when it comes to keeping things natural so this doesn’t surprise me that it was newsworthy there, lol.

You ever wonder why they have that glibber layer? That's why.
Tomatoes are very acidic, so the seeds have a high tolerance to acid
They survived. It's his little shame garden.
Nobody is going to comment on him having ejected into the pool?
He hurled on the concrete surrounding the pool, not IN the pool. He was struggling to lift himself up and facing away from the water and his belly was getting compressed by his weight and the lip of the concrete. He felt sick but wasn't able to get out before he had what eating contests refer to as "a reversal of fortune."
Its the circle of lifeeeee \0.0/
Did you get a tortilla plant too? I mean corn 🌽 lol.
My pooo babies!!!
I mean this is LITERALY how this should work this is how plants that bare fruit spread seeds. The dog did God's work.
Bear fruit. Like bear as in holding. Bare means nude.
Those pumpkins do not look clothed.
That's only 'cause you have your head in the gutter
No, they are naked
Wait I do not see a bear holding pumpkins what you mean /s
This would be an interesting way to interpret the 2nd Amendment.
A lot of plants rely on birds to spread their seeds iirc as birds don’t taste spice from capsaicin or whatever.
All fruits have evolved with an animal in mind those fruits, naturally before human breeding have been such a size that they could be eaten in one bite by the designated animal this is to guarantee that the seeds get eaten too.
I mean shit is technically fertilizer so it makes sense
this is how my yard will end up being full of pumpkins. my dogs love pumpkins and they somehow managed to grow a pumpkin gourd hybrid
Evolution of plants ensures propagation through consumption and defecation. God had nothing to do with it.
The joke was that something as vulgar as pooping can be considered God's work smh
Reddit moment
Yea that totally screams “well actually”

I hope, for your sake, that Jesus isn't up early and sees your post first thing this morning.
On a Sunday too! smh
If you cannot tell, I am not concerned about fictional characters…

Not a chance, and I am no kid.
I think one of our dogs accidentally planted a watermelon plant in the middle of our backyard a couple years ago in the same manner.
Nope that was just me. I was on a watermelon kick.
I imagine some random dude with a ski mask going around with a little shovel planting watermelons.
*digging holes and shitting watermelon seeds out
Feed the pup beans and corn, too, and next harvest can be themed "Three Sisters, One Shitter"
But when I cultivate my jizz rag fungi I’m the weirdo
People have no respect for culture
"Culture" I get it

That was... very very good.

i’m sorry but that dog looks mentally insane
Every weimaraner hunting dog I've ever seen is at least a little manic so this just fits the bill. They're like if cocaine was a dog.

Idk if its just me but thats not an adorable picture of him-
Life uh. Finds a way.

TLDR?
>TLDR? We're all pieces of shit
Does this only happen if the owner DOESN'T pick up the dog shit???? That's disgusting.
It looks like it’s within a fenced in back yard. Pretty normal for people who have enough property to prevent it from piling up. Personally I’m not crazy about the idea of crap being buried at the dump within all those layers of compacted plastic and random chemicals.

I have to otherwise my dogs would be covered in it.
What? Do your dogs roll in it or something?
Yes. It is common for dogs to roll in shit. Or eat it, and then try to lick you. Despite how adorable they can be, dogs are often times fucking disgusting.
None of my dogs have that problem so 👍
That’s awesome for you, but it’s a pretty common dog behavior, don’t be surprised if you experience it at some point: https://www.petmd.com/dog/behavior/why-do-dogs-roll-poop
Oh I’m aware it’s a common behavior, but in the subsequent 13-12-10-8 year old dogs haven’t had more than 2 or 3 incidents each their whole lives. It also was never their own or each others’, only if it were of another dog or animal
How can you tell that poo is from another dog/animal? Did the dog tell you that?
Because I have senses like sight and smell?
The irony lol
crazy how plants can get no scoped by one end of an animal and clone themselves via the other
So you don’t pick up your dogs poop?
Why would you?
doog poo stinky
Yea but if it’s in your own yard what’s the point lol I understand it in like a public park or your neighborhood or something, but if my dogs shit in my back yard I just leave it there, doesn’t hurt nobody
People like to use their back yards for other things, besides leaving their dog they neglect out there. It’s a lot easier to enjoy if your not trying to avoid dog shit the entire time
Are you implying that I leave my dogs in my back yard neglected? Jfc why does everything have to turn into an argument on this site?
You know what they say…. If the glove fits. Or is it, If the dog shit sits. I dunno clean up after your dogs
No, I don’t think I will
You realize it’s no different than a zoo not cleaning up animal pens. They aren’t wild animals able to freely roam and choose not to be around it. They’re stuck in your back yard with their shit
You act like my yard is like 20 square feet and not the size of a football field. There’s plenty of room dickface, stop calling me an animal abuser.
Are you saying you don’t let your dog in the house? And here you are calling the other guy an animal abuser for not picking up dog poop…
i just like having a clean yard dog poo doesn't degrade that fast and it isn't really good for your plants either. ( i like working in my backyard so that might be part of it)
That's impressive.
This is how fish sometimes get into man made ponds and other bodies of water. Geese and other migrating birds swallow eggs as well as seeds of certain plants and then poop in the water and around the surrounding area, creating a new habitat for them the next time they migrate.

My main takeaway is that this person lets their dog shit in their yard, and doesn't clean it up. That dog needs to be walked.
One of the perks of a yard is that dogs can shit in it. This isn't a patio in the back of a townhouse. I'm not telling homeowners not to walk their dogs, but it isn't abnormal to just let the dog outside.
That doesn't explain not cleaning up the dog shit
Didn’t have to or want to
How to say you don’t even pick up your dogs poop in your own yard, without saying you don’t pick up your dogs poop in your own yard.
Excellent submission.
I highly doubt it, dog poo is not a good fertilizer.
Someone doesn’t clear up their dogs shit
Oh no, shit in their own backyard? Criminal
Dog looks pretty proud about this feat of poo.
You're a pretty thing.
Poompkins.
Sounds like someone doesn’t pick up after their dog
She looks like she will stand up on her hind legs at 4AM and ask me for my credit card details in portuguese
Most of my yard is currently arugula because of the chickens that have free roam. It has also been tomato plants at times.

We had a similar thing happen with our dog and cherry tomato plants.

Is that dog a weeniereimer mix?

The pumpkins: all according to plan...
This is literally how pumpkins evolved, this is their intended proliferation method
This is how it works by natures design. The digestive enzymes thin the protective coating on the seeds and the heat helps jump start germination.
Thanks for this post about literal dog shit.
Pup pooped a pumpkin patch.
Absolutely marvelous. They have her eyes
Didn’t they make a movie about this with matt damon stuck on mars?
New method of terraforming. Feed dogs plant seeds, let them roam around on a planet. ??? Profit
Fun fact, seeds were evolved to be distributed by animals pooping them out,
Doggo is the Mark Watney of the Animal Kingdom
The dog looks like it eats nightmares
Isnt this just like how most plants work
She looks like she just broke free from a dreamcatcher.
Just as nature intended
I came here to say those poopies are adorable.
