This Man's Hilarious Revenge On A Woman Who Let Her Dog Poop On The Airport Floor Is Perfect

Proof that sometimes some people get what they deserve.

Bringing a pet on a fight is rare. It can be expensive and difficult and most pets are not awarded the luxury of sitting among the people on the flight. So for the lucky few you can bet your bottom dollar that 99% of the time both the humans and the pets in question are on their best behavior and grateful for the opportunity to not be separated in an already stressful situation. 

Yet recently for one Reddit user, thehofstetter, who was flying a long haul from Los Angeles to Tokyo, not everyone in his story was so well behaved. As he made his way through the airport he saw a woman allow her dog to do his doo-doo business right in the middle of the airport and casually walk away without a concern in the world. Upon some minimal investigating, he discovered the woman would be on the very same flight as him and he decided to have some fun with it... in the form of revenge. He tells his story on Reddit:

While walking to my gate at LAX, I noticed a woman whose dog was in the middle of doing its business. The woman was loudly face-timing with her back to the dog, so I assumed she didn’t notice. That was likely the thought shared by the gentleman who tried to get her attention.

'Excuse me, miss?' he said, in a polite tone. The woman glared at him. 'Your dog,' he sheepishly continued, pointing to the mid-poop pup.

The woman rolled her eyes and went back to face time as the man slinked away, seemingly embarrassed.

'Some people,' she bellowed to her face-time companion with no hint of irony, 'are just so damned rude.'

When her dog finished, the woman started walking away, leaving everything right on the airport floor. Another woman tried to stop her.

'You’re not going to clean that up?' she asked, as shocked as the rest of us were.

'They have people for that,' the offender replied, disappearing into the crowd, as much as someone yelling into their phone can disappear into a crowd.

Of course, thankfully for the rest of us, not everyone is so inconsiderate and our very own story teller made it his personal mission to ensure no one accidentally stepped in dog poo while they rushed to their own flights.

Continuing on with his fascinating feces story...

I stood near the pile and warned people to walk around it while someone else got a maintenance worker’s attention. No one said anything – we were so shocked that anyone could be that horrible.

When I got to my gate, the woman was there, too. Great – we were both going to Tokyo. When I travel abroad, I get embarrassed by other Americans doing things one hundred times less embarrassing than leaving animal feces on the floor of an airport. To make it worse, her dog was now barking at everyone who walked by.

I have nothing against people flying with their dogs, I do it often. But it is a privilege I take seriously. My dog is well-trained and behaves better than most people. He certainly behaves better than that asshole.

Speaking of assholes, there is a pet relief area inside LAX, past security, just two gates away from where The Party Pooper let her dog go to town. It didn’t matter - she was the type of person to litter three feet from an empty garbage can.

While her dog barked at the world, the woman had moved from face-timing with no headphones to listening to music with no headphones. I don’t like to throw around the word 'sociopath' but I don’t know how else I could explain just how selfish and terrible of a person she was. I’d bet her car was somewhere in long-term parking, parked across three spots with paint on the bumper from the child's bike she hit without leaving a note.

Everyone else tried to ignore her, sitting as far away from her as they could. I am not everyone else.

I sat down right next to the horrible woman. 'Are you going to London on business?' I said.

I’m going to Tokyo,' she responded gruffly, annoyed that I interrupted her DJing.

Oh, I said. Then you better hurry. That flight got moved to gate 53C. This is the flight to London.

I figured I could give her a little moment of panic as payback for how terribly she was treating everyone. I didn’t predict what would happen next. She grabbed her bags and her dog in a huff, and stormed out of the gate without even checking. She was so self-involved, she didn’t notice that the monitor at our gate still said Tokyo and almost everyone at the gate was Japanese.

Based on her actions, she believed me that the fight had been moved, so she’s also an asshole for not thanking me. 'Some people,' I thought as I watched her rush away from the gate without stopping her, 'are just so damned rude.

The flight to Tokyo was at gate 69A, so the 53 gates were on the other side of the next terminal. And I felt guilty knowing she probably berated some poor clerk who had to explain to her that there was no gate 53C.

"I don’t know if she made it back to this flight before we took off or not, but I didn’t see her board and I don’t hear her dog. Her missing her flight was not my original intention, but it would be a fine punishment for her being so rude to everyone and making a low-paid stranger clean feces off the floor. What makes me wonder if I went too far is the knowledge that Delta only has one flight to Tokyo each day. Whoops.

Maybe she can re-book on another airline. I hear they have people for that.

Of course with every crazy tale on the Internet, not everyone believed OP, and a discussion insisting on some sort of proof ensued. He's truly a hero to us all.

Dog breeds have changed quite a lot over the past century. Take a look at what humans have done to our favorite doggo breeds.
