Sign found outside of Yoyogi Park, Tokyo.

“Fn” likely meant as ‘fun’ (pronounced ‘foon’) meaning dog poop.

    “the trouble should not hang to the other”.
    That’s a common problem with dogs.

    Even though the expression “public domain” is correctly used, it’s still nice to know there are some things you (or your dog) can do without having to click through a EULA and TOS agreement.

    Math majors are so annoying… they dispose all their Fn at the park ;-)

    Even a half-sane ‘animal of the dog’ owner wouldn’t even think about going to THAT park.

    “Throwing it away to the restroom” — sort of like Frisbee Golf, only different..

    This is Chuck Norris, your park ranger speaking.
    You owner, the animal of the dog. Defend the following instructions so troubles do not hang to the another, otherwise I will roundkick your a** and comes a feeling that is scary hated one also comes.
    Oh, and don’t take home to home either!!!

    If Foon is dog poop, I do not want to know what Spork is.

    This is all as obvious a dog’s balls on a cat.

    I followed your instruction in not throwing away the Fn but took it from home to home….. but nobody was willing to accept it!

    While strolling in Yoyogi-koen,
    When no one could see where I was goin’,
    I crapped on the grass an the bins in the dark,
    And all of the seats for a lark,
    For in th gloom none could see what i ”s doin’.

    I think this sign was written by a dog.

    It’s not much fun in the park, what with Park Ranger Etcetera giving me Fn for not following his instructions.

    WARNING: Dispose or have Fn.

    I think it’s sweet when a dog wags his tail, but I find it absolutely insufferable, though, when he wags his finger.

    Yes, many good yocks to be had here, but I really find endearing the picture of doggies put out to pasture amid the cows.

  29. $teve | 2:38 pm |  Vote: Add rating 3  Subtract rating 0  

    No, I’m fine. I already pastured.

    Try making a cat stroll.

    I dont think the dog needs to go poop if you had to use a dragrope to get them to the park.

    When it says ‘defend’ it actually means ‘observe’ or ‘follow’ (the rules etc) since the word 守る has both these meanings. That pasture bit was poorly translated. Its supposed to mean something like ‘don’t let your dog run free around the park’ since 放し飼い means letting (a dog) run free but it also means grazing or pasturing.

    ^Part of what’s so frustrating though is that in Tokyo in particular there are tons of people who could have fixed this. The people who made it just didn’t care.

    Actually, you can lead a dog to Yoyogi-koen, but you can’t make him stroll.
