The British government introduced ASBOs by the Crime and Disorder Act 1998. In the UK, a CRASBO is a "criminally related" ASBO. One local authority has published photos of those given ASBOs on an Internet site.[6] Anti-social behaviour includes a range of problems including:[7]

Wait, you can shoplift in England and not get arrested? Maybe the ASBO is not so bad as I thought.

littering/fly tipping/dog fouling

parsing this one out, problematic

― t( :D t) (jjjusten), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 18:55 (fifteen years ago)

noise pollution. I play my music way too loud, in my car, and house, because I've been slowly losing my hearing for years.

To be fair though, I always turn down when asked politely!

is motorboating an ASBO?

― San Te, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 18:55 (fifteen years ago)

I would have DEFINITELY been tagged with an ABSO for "noise pollution" at several times in my life.

I don't know if I am hoping "windmilling" is the breakdancing move or the headbanging move.

Kinda wish these were given out for being a door-to-door missionary.

― Quantic Dream, So Hard To Beat (Will M.), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:00 (fifteen years ago)

i would love to make a bunch of claims for some of the others, but truth is that drunken behaviour is kind of a shoe in for me.

― t( :D t) (jjjusten), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:00 (fifteen years ago)

Glad that "fly tipping" and "dog fouling" are a combined category. I would have a tough time choosing between those two.

fly tipping?

― a CRASBO is a "criminally related" ASBO (contenderizer), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:01 (fifteen years ago)

yeah seriously what ARE those

― Quantic Dream, So Hard To Beat (Will M.), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:02 (fifteen years ago)

btw what is "windmilling"?

I voted for that because I don't know what it is and I'm all for trying new things.

Wait, you can shoplift in England and not get arrested? Maybe the ASBO is not so bad as I thought.

Sometimes a shop will call the police and they'll come along and charge someone, sometimes they'll come along and give them a caution, often they'll tell the shop they're a bit busy and tell them to let the thief go.

assume that dog fouling entails pups led astray, but fly tipping is a mystery

― a CRASBO is a "criminally related" ASBO (contenderizer), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:02 (fifteen years ago)

creating a tip (british for garbage dump) on the fly = fly tipping

― StanM, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:03 (fifteen years ago)

fly tipping = illegally dumping rubbish

― embrace the flopping? no thanks (onimo), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:03 (fifteen years ago)

so leaving your couch or your dog's shit on the sidewalk = rl suggest ban?

How common is "dogging" REALLY?

― Sensational Howard (admrl), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:03 (fifteen years ago)

so is non-theatrical public sex okay? or is that a CRASBO?

― peter in montreal, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:04 (fifteen years ago)

dog fouling - letting your dogs shite on the streets.
fly tipping - dumping your trash in the road, like large scale littering

― ailsa, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:05 (fifteen years ago)

oh, that would be some xposts then.

what about shamed & furtive public sex? hide my ASBO?

Note to onimo from urban dictionary:

clutching ones flacid penis at the base, and waving it in a similar motion to that of a windmill

lol xpost

― ailsa, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:07 (fifteen years ago)

windmilling is the act of spinning one's penis around in the fashion of a windmill, usually with the intent of hitting someone in the face

sometimes done while urinating.

― cozen, Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:08 (fifteen years ago)

well, nice to know it's an option

― Sensational Howard (admrl), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:08 (fifteen years ago)

So windmilling is like that Simpsons where Bart started punching the air and told Lisa if she got in his way, it was her own fault?

― mercy, sportsmanship, morality (Abbott), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:09 (fifteen years ago)

i dont care about the facts, fly tipping and dog fouling are way more hysterical without them

― t( :D t) (jjjusten), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:09 (fifteen years ago)

Yeah, like happy slapping with a more pleasing aesthetic.

― embrace the flopping? no thanks (onimo), Wednesday, 21 July 2010 19:10 (fifteen years ago)

i know. i figured fly tipping was something you did with a magnifying glass and toothpick.

* dealing/consumption of controlled recreational drugs

Had no idea drug dealing was now reduced to ASBO status. The prisons must be seriously full.

the more i think of it the more i think that my initial drunken behaviour could obv lead to many of the others so idk anymore. needs multiple options.

none of which are dog fouling per my more interesting inaccurate definition

I am all for fare dodging on trains if possible. It's usually not these days tho. Pretty sure I've engaged in behaviour while drunk too.

Dogging in combination with any (or multiple) of the others is the true winner, though.

― Merdeyeux, Thursday, 22 July 2010 11:12 (fifteen years ago)

Busking or Fare Dodging.

Though I don't do either any more (well, unless the Victoria Line kicks everyone off at Victoria and I've no way of getting home if I don't jump on the overground) I've certainly been guilty of both of those in the past.

How much spitting would you have to do exactly to get an asbo for it?

― WOOD! GOBLINS! (NickB), Thursday, 22 July 2010 12:08 (fifteen years ago)

depends on where rather than quantity imo

Ah, it's probably for spitting at people isn't it? In which case an asbo's too good for them.
