finery

Robin found this informative list in the local paper today:



OK.

A. The fine for defecating is only half what it is for urinating.

ii. Spitting, apparently, also is twice as bad as defecating, fine-wise.

3. If your dog shits on the street, it will cost you 5x what it does if you shit on the street.

IV. What if someone takes a dump on the hood of your car (fine: Rs 100) and you, reasonably, wash it off (fine: Rs 1000)?

e. Parking while sweeping?? What the?

I think that it might be one of SF's most favoritest fines--leaving your car on the street during street sweeping. :)

Aha! I bet you are right. That explanation would never have occurred to us, seeing as the streets here are perpetually filthy (you may have guessed this from the fact that they have to impose fines for defecating in public). In fact, Alex just looked over at me, confused, and said "Wait...they sweep the streets here?!?"

Thank you, mystery commenter.
