I have an empty apartment with poo ground into the wall to wall. Is that why they call it shampooing? Any recommendations greatly appreciated.

  1. true Ljubitca,

    …the poop response must be hardwired into the Prokaryote DNA,
    even invertebrates like the sea cucumber, if teased enough will end up expelling their entire intestines at you.
    (or is that…teasing your intestines with a cucumber will end up messy???) …but I digress, the point is, left with no other means of expression, poop sometimes speaks volumes.

    …as far as the dirty carpet. roll it up like a giant spliff and feed it to the nearest sanitation truck.

  2. I love how humans get primal and it always comes down to poo in distress.

    When I worked at CIGNA HealthCare (a few years back), they let a lot of people go- A LOT. Departments in the Northeast were learning about layoffs in email. Yes very classy! These emails were followed by the EAP “drinking in the workplace emails” as everyone had turned to the bottle. But some people didn’t turn to the drink. Some people had better plans.

    And so was born the Poopetrator of the Wilde building’s womens’ bathrooms in Bloomfield, CT. The Poopetrator first started with smearing. I believe the German’s have a term for this called schmeirstuhl? – correct me if I am wrong.

    She then went on to throwing her poo in patterns on the walls. Followed by full on soft serve in the middle of the floors. And ended on a high by writing prose in (her) own poo on the wall. This took place over the course of a few weeks. We were all openly cheering her on.

    CIGNA had to hire security personal and then set up cameras outside of all the bathrooms.

    Well of course this brought the brown era to end but they never caught her.

    I dont work there anymore but funny enough where I do work at present, we had a smilar although simmered down incident a few years ago when a female employee wrote in her own poo on the bathroom wall. She wasnt so descreet and had to be wheeled out in a stretcher. And yes I am at another HMO.

  3. Haha, it brings a completely new twist to that live/work tag.
    Get rid of it, it will be cheaper than a proper cleaning. I would get carpet squares installed, and keep enough to redo the hallways ( or the occasional disgruntled ex-employee’s cubicle.)

  4. Seriously traditionalmod? I’m sorry you’re saying that except for this one spot of fecal matter there is no other ground in poo anywhere on this carpet? This is NYC. I can’t even imagine what gets “ground” into the carpet on a daily basis. FWIW this is a live/work space (sorry for my OP that was somewhat misleading) and my understanding is that someone was let go a few months ago and that was the retaliation he administered. It wasn’t tar, unless they use corn and tomato seeds to make tar these days. He actually had to pull a large printer away from the wall to make his deposit.
    If someone gets a E-coli infection from licking the carpet, well maybe they deserve it.

  5. Okay I know everybody is joking around and I’m being a drag by answering the question seriously, but modsquad, there’s a health issue here and it would be unethical to keep that carpet I’m sorry. I don’t care how new it is. Keep the security deposit in order to rip it out and replace the carpet. That’s what security deposits are for – they’re not to pay for your pain and suffering. Shampooing carpet makes a carpet stay damp long enough for a kind of bacteria to grow, there’s actually a specific illness caused by shampooing a carpet too much making it stay damp a long time. Which is what would be required to shampoo out ground-in poop. So then you have that bacteria on top of the bacteria from the poop. Total health hazard. And a liability if your tenant gets sick.

  6. just animals apparently. because they dont wipe they have a special gland that lubricates their butt before dropping a stinky. humans dont have that. which i find odd, why not? cavemen MUST have had it since they didnt wipe? the toilet paper company must have beaten that out of us evolutionarily. imagine how much richer we’d all be if as a species we had no need to wipe? just get the occassional excretion procedure? tho im sure that’d be milked to hell too.

    *rob*

  7. Wait… one question (even though my stomach is still a little queasy from the video), Do humans have these “glands” that get expressed? Or just other animals? Like… wait. Maybe I don’t want to know.
