Recently, when we were strolling around the streets of BTM Layout, we spotted a dog pooping in the middle of the road. The owner of the dog picked up the poop and immediately dumped it inside a plastic bag which he had carried along. Having witnessed too much of weirdness in this era of social media influenced society, we were wondering if any new trend has started online! Within a minute, we spotted the above board. Felt relieved, realizing that the world has not gone completely insane yet. But are we in the beginning of it?
Clearly, the above rule applies only to the house dogs. Street dogs give a damn about this dog shit.
As a part of cultured and educated society, we too have bound ourselves into set of rules and regulations, which applies only to the domesticated humans.
Instructions are everywhere. Follow traffic rules, wear masks/ helmet/seatbelts, pay taxes, don’t litter the place, No parking, No honking, Go slow, No billboards etc.
Those who are concerned will follow without imposition, and those who are not will not abide by them genuinely anyway.
What if you had authority to put your own sign boards over the places, what would you have written?
Below are my choices:
- Queue please : At each bus station
- Wash your hands: Male pee stations
- No entry: for late comers in movie theaters
- Behave responsibly: at tourist places
- No cake cutting: At weddings / public places
- No phones: Inside a theater
- No Music: At Restaurants
And the list grows…
