You know it's a good day to be a reporter when you can use the phrases "giant inflatable dog turd" and "wreaks havoc" in the same story.
Christ, Paul McCartney really needs to stop smoking so much pot.

The hours dedicated to a study of the subject before commencing on the fabrication of an artistic interpretation--well, somebody's convinced of his own talent.
Works of art, indeed.

I love the world again! This is precisely what should happen when you make a giant, inflatable dog turd - any other outcome would be hugely less entertaining.
Also: I, for one, welcome our new giant, inflatable dog turd overlords.

and don't get me started on "Let 'Em In" and "Live and Let Die"

In Switzerland, plastic bags and bins are provided for the disposal of the doggy droppings. It is forbidden to leave it laying about. And honestly, the dogs are so well behaved (in a rather un-dog-like way) that I suspect they may pick up after themselves.

Sadly, the education of the youth of amerika is declining in more than one way. The other day I was at the grocery store and the checker was unable to identify a giant inflatable dog turd. And no, she wasn't new...and to make matters worse the checker next to her didn't know either.
