   Most can actually manage to enjoy the scenery and not trip over   
   something that happens to be where they are walking towards.

   Because you fools like to tell everyone what they can and cannot do.   
      
   Like walk around the shops stark naked etc.   
      
   Tho in your case that so everyone else doesn't die laughing.

   Separate issue to how many have tried to train them to do that.

   Nope. And the dogs arent angry.

   But cat shit isnt always that obvious.

   That doesn't work with parked cars.
