So you might want to think about a different place for the bird feeder thus ensuring that you will will not run the risk of further injury? OR rearrange the entire patio.

I once had a friend who seriously injured his penis because his bird feeder was empty and they, the birds, attacked him where it hurts! He drove a truck up the hill to the country doctor however the doctor was a bird lover and proceeded to chop my friend into little bits with a sharp thing.  I don't know why you people do not plan things out correctly.  I am a Libra - we know the flow and we place and space things perfectly until things feel right and all paths are clear.

Well, @KSM as you know I started to remove the carpet and said fuck it.  I'm not doing that shit on my only day off. 

It appears that the padding was partially glued to the floor with a substance that resembles tar.  Under that there are square vinyl tiles showing through.  There is also a segment where there is a double layer of carpet.  I don't understand why one would lay carpet on top of carpet. 

I'm not sure what the previous owners were thinking.  Spilling the paint was actually a blessing because this carpet sucks and I want to have some laminate flooring installed.  However that will have to wait until the Fall due to financial restraints.

What complicates matters is when I rip all this up, I have to load it and take it to the dump; or pay for hauling.  Garbage men won't take it.  The room isn't small either.

The more I discover about this property the more I'm convinced the previous owners were crazy.  I've come across a lot of very odd things.  They were the sole owners since 1965 when the house was built until we moved in last year. 

Regarding my 'crazy' comment.  There were lightbulbs glued in fixtures.  YES! Glued in, and nearly every room has Scotch Tape everywhere.  I have no idea why.  It's like the tape was used as a decoration.

@ShayP
Cut it up in hunks, throw it in the back yard and each week put a couple of smallish hunks in the bottom of your rubbish bag. The rubbish men *will* take it then.
I got rid of a bunch of sod that way.  The dirty birds said they wouldn't take sod [they'll take asbestos infested debris if you double bag it but not sod].  Took a little
time but they took it all.
 
Or perhaps you can use the same solution that we once used when faced with the disposal of a life sized, very much used, sex doll.  I'm sure you have heard
that tale and know how that was handled.  It would work for you as well - you just might have to drive to Detroit.

I think I put the sex doll thing out of my mind.  @Walks_At_Night   LOL!  I could use your method but it would take weeks to dispose of it all after it's bagged up.  I may just do that however.  Thank you.  It's just weird because they are particular about trash collection.  A lot has changed since I first moved a way.  Before then you could put anything in any amount out to the curb and they'd take it.  Not anymore.

Oh jeez.  Not Senda.  "The guy from Pittsburgh."  ::)   Yeah, I'm just north of the city proper.  Around 8 miles or so.  Maybe Senda was related to the people that lived here before.  ;D  ;)

Weeks fly-by baby. She'll be gone before you know it. I'm glad the sex doll thing is out of your mind - wish it was out of mine!

The actual fuck! ???   I don't know what to say. A house, of layers, of weirdness.

Do what WAN said about cutting the carpet into small pieces and get rid of it that way. When I first started out I had a little Ford Ranger so I got pretty crafty with hauling old ripped out flooring from customers houses.

Wait until you find out about the twelve layers of shingles on the roof.
