Same here.
I got to beat the old asian ladies away from my recycle bins early in the morning, some sneak by the night before. they ride bikes and boy are they quick.
our landfill on the farm was a big hole, it preceded Nixon by a long shot,, it’s still there. maybe they can do an archeological dig there someday.
I have some good ideas for lead recycling.
I refused for years to recycle but then the local garbage police got me and threatened me with fines for every time I don’t recycle.
I did my part--I ralphed up dinner after hearing the election results.
smelt that coming.. we used to recover it from old lead lined cables, it paid for lots of shotgun shells and beer,,
National Security, Borders, the economy, spending cuts, and jobs should be this f’n a’holes only priority.
Actually, he should be in jail.
What a joke.
San FRan has super stringent regs.. you vill recycle und separate everyzing exactly ze way ve tell you to.. or you will be dealt with. sad..
He’d have some friends there,, Blago, Rezko, and soon Je$$e HiJack$on Jr. .. They could have their own recycling gang.
Here in Indiana we’re recycling our trash into a mountain, slowly but surely, and eventually we’re gonna have our own ski resort!
It’s so dumb because where I live most of the recycling winds up in the landfill anyway.
The only things this dope is recycling are lame excuses and
1930s economic policies.
Actually, I’ve already been forced to recycle earlier this month. . . the alleged ‘election’ and this proclamation is just one more example of wasted effort.
I just read this thread. I'm going to chain smoke the rest of the day, and open the front door a lot, to pollute the outside air.
I also have a number of trash bags to walk to our dumpster. My rotater cuff on left arm has been bad so haven't carried the trash for 5 days. I have five bags of trash so out they go today without recycling anything.
I’d love to recycle zero into soylent green.
Totally off-topic, but when I was a tender young lad of the high school persuasion, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology was aggressively trying to recruit me to go to college there (and in fact, they were the final runner-up to Purdue, which I ultimately selected). The one piece of recruitment mail I'll never forget was a full-size poster (which I kept for years):
Can we recycle zero???
I'm afraid we did. Instead of tossing him in the trash, we recycled the SOS for another 4 years.
“The EPA partnering with businesses to recover food. huh?
How long before ya need a permit and a haz mat certified suit to dumpster dive?”
No, the food won’t be in the dumpster - Just another executive order to confiscate OUR personal food for “redistribution” so food ownership is FAIR. And, I’m not kidding.
We’re $16 trillion in debt, but we recycle!!! Yahoo!!!
I just become totally livid when I see this push to recycle. Our generation had solid wood furniture which we inherited from our grandparents. It may have had several layers of paint on it, but it had been around for a long time and still is, unlike all that fiberboard or pressed board junk. We washed our babies diapers and used the wornout ones for dust cloths, stored leftovers in Tupperware bowls. There were not 20 layers of plastic inside and outside of every box, package and can. Soda bottles were glass and were returned so they could be reused. Hems on everything were let down or raised up depending on which child they were passed on to.
Everything was used for something else until there often was literally nothing left.
