[Closed] Well that was a bit embarrassing...

That'll teach 'em for pressing the slash key.

any excuse

Did you say "He's just being friendly"

or "He's never done that before"

Yep an apology wouldn't cut it for me in that situation. I'd want you cleaning the mess up and offering to replace any damaged contents.

I hope you offered full replacement cost.

I would have a serious sense of humour failure in that situation, either as dog owner or picnicer.

There must've been a reason for it! Is it somewhere you usually take the dog? Did the picnickers smell of something attractive to dogs? How did the dog get out of the car before you? Was the dog driving and you were the passenger?

Same here. They should not be leaving their picnic with a dog piss smelling bag without a bit of cash pressed into their hand for a new one. Apologies and a wipe over with a tissue does not cut it. No pudding for your dog.

Before I'd even had a chance to get out if the car the dog had [s]tore off[/s] [i]was allowed by his owner[/i] straight towards a couple who were relaxing on a blanket, presumably enjoying a picnic.

FTFY...

Surprised you aren't posting from A&E really.

I'd be in a total shame-well handing out dosh.

Why compound the embarrassment by posting about it on here? That's the weirdest bit of this story.

[b]Before I'd even had a chance to get out if the car [/b]the dog had tore off straight towards a couple who were relaxing on a blanket

How can that even happen??

I'd want a new laptop and bag if someone's dog did that to me I'm afraid.
Unless that was offered, I'm not surprised the apology didn't really work.

Had the dog been on a lead it wouldn't have happened -

I'd also want a new laptop and bag if someone's dog did that to me I'm afraid.

I'm hoping this is a fake/trolling post to draw people in.

Like [b]tthew[/b] I cannot see any justification for you posting something which is 1) your fault, 2) not properly dealt with by you.

Thankfully the laptop bag was wipe clean and the piss didn't manage to get anywhere other than on the closed laptop lid. Luckily he was also a dog owner so he was sympathetic. Naturally I gave it a thorough clean. A lesson learned I think...

[i]he was also a dog owner[/i]

That explains it. Your mutt smelled their dog and was doing a "Loddrick's dog wuz ere"
Brilliant.

[i]Why compound the embarrassment by posting about it on here?[/i]
Duh! Cuz it a funny story! 🙄

Equally why not post about it. Both parties managed to cope with the situation without coming to blows. Plus, had it been me who.was in their position, as long as they were apologetic and no permanent damage was done, I'd have been satisfied with an apology and a clean. Just as well we both took the same view. I'm glad that I don't have a hardline view on things like mentioned above. Accidents happen.

Had the owner whipped his cock out and started urinating on the bag, maybe that'd be a different story.

What sort of person takes a laptop to a picnic?

Dog was out of the car and off as soon as door open. I was grabbing the poo bags and lead. He normally just waits for me barking and waiting for his ball. I assume he took off as he already had ball in mouth.

What breed of dog have you got?

Border terrier

Dobermann Pischer?

Edit: Scrap that. I see from the post above that his dog is just a wee one.

Before I'd even had a chance to get out if the car

So you were out of the car, you were fetching the poo bags? Or did your dog open the door, such was his haste to piss on someone else's [s]chips[/s] sandwiches

he proceeded to piss all over their open laptop bag [b]including the laptop[/b].

I'm glad that I don't have a hardline view on things like mentioned above.

If you were more clear.in your OP that there was no damage, you may have got less "hardline" responses.

If you paint a picture of a ruined and piss soaked laptop, what are people supposed to think?

Possibly somewhat intentional.

trolling,sad.

Nope. I don't believe my original description was in any way misleading. Misinterpreted on your part maybe. It was all over the bag and on the laptop. I didn't say the laptop was damaged. Merely pissed upon.

Erm, trolling.....? 🙄

What sort of person takes a laptop to a picnic?

Probably what the dog was thinking. That'll learn em.
They need to leave their shoes available in future.

Nope. I don't believe my original description was in any way misleading.

Mmmm OK.

For starters... In the op. The dog got out of the car before you did. That seems to have changed.

You didn't mention that there was no damage whatsoever done to either the laptop or the bag.
(Odd thing to miss out considering in the op you said your dog "pissed all over" both of them)

It's like an uber troll, designed purely to get accused of trolling so you can deny it.

Give over. The OP didn't say his apology wasn't accepted - that was your assumption.

[i]The dog got out of the car before you did. That seems to have changed.[/i]

No! He was back in the car getting the stuff after opening the boot/door for the dog!

[i]Duh! Cuz it a funny story![/i]

I take this back. STW can drain the humour out of anything. As well as add humour to sad situations. It's clever like that.

A beach- deserted. Except for one small neat pile of clothes belonging to a man swimming in the sea.

A beach- deserted. Except for on small neat pile of clothes belonging to a man swimming in the sea.

....then, as if from nowhere, a small brown dog comes scurrying out of the dunes straight towards the pile of clothes and, without hesitation, cocks a rear leg and lets fly with a hot stream of reeking, steaming pish.
In the distance, an embarrassed Scouser fumbles uncomfortably with his smartphone.

No it hasn't. Whatsoever. Where?

Again, that's just your interpretation. The story, such as it is, was that my dog pissed all over someone's laptop bag and laptop. Which he did. You inserted the 'pissed over must mean damaged' connotation yourself. I didn't allude to that in any way. And just to reiterate, this was done whilst he had left the car and I was still gathering up doggy necessities.

I can't really spell it out any clearer. It is clearly your prerogative to interpret and embellish it as you see fit. As indeed you have done.

DezB is bang on.

Jeez, tough crowd op huh? 😆

dogz innit

What sort of person takes a laptop to a picnic?

A hipster?

What sort of person takes a laptop to a picnic?

Someone that says they're working from home.

Kill the dog rub the owners nose in its corpse. Never do it again.

My lab did a similar thing when he was 10 months old. Except it was a large tattooed bloke sunbathing on the beach. I realised in 2 seconds that there was no way I was talking my way out of it. But every chance I could run my way out of it. I think it took the bloke 10 seconds to comprehend that a dog had pissed all over him and another 20 seconds to get his shoes on. There was no hope he would win in a foot race to the car park. Luckily in the excitement the dog followed me at sprint speed back to the van and we wheel spun out of the car park just as tattoo bloke got there...

What sort of tatooed bloke goes sunbathing on a beach?

Why would he put his shoes on to chase you?

LIAR!

He sounded like a Swansea jack.. Was sat on the rocks / reef sunning his Wales, mam, and SCFC club tatoos. Have you tried running across rocks barefoot?

franksinatra has clearly never been to Southsea!

Had the owner whipped his cock out and started urinating on the bag, maybe that'd be a different story.

"before I'd even had chance to get out of my car... dog had charged over to a couple having a quiet picnic... urinated all over their open laptop bag... as if to show his anger, the owner stood up, all 6'7 of him... unfurled... started urinating over the same laptop bag..."

franksinatra should log off from the internet sites that he's abusing himself over 24/7 and visit the great British seaside.

****!

I think our Frankie may have been being facetious.

I thought it was funny, and cloud9's tale.

As for the OP I laughed heartily - nice one for sharing lodders. If I'd been you or the laptop owner I'd have been highly amused whilst it was happening - but then I'm a silly ****

I give up. My subtle sarcasm and observational wit is wasted here.
