I don’t even bother recycling, though my wife has a fetish about it. It’s a pain in the ass, washing out containers and removing plastic bits and labels.

I refuse. Recycling is a scam.

True of me as well . . . I hate recycling! But my wife who totally hates 0bama loves to recycle. She is constantly separating garbage into the different recycling piles - but then she IS OCD!

Where I live, no matter where you dispose of recycled material, it all ends up in the landfill anyway. I asked about this once, why should I go through all this trouble for nothing. I was informed that the actual recycling hadn't started yet, but the populace still had to be trained to do it. That was 15 years ago.

BTW: it still hasn't started yet.

Watch the Penn and Teller Bullsh** episode on Recycling. It will cure your wife.

ENTROPY JUST IS

Recycling is for stupid, illiterate, ignorant people who have poor education in economics and science. For some homeless it makes sense. Demanding children recycle is a form of mild abuse. Conformity to parent’s ignorance.

In other words, the requirement to reverse normal entropy is a very large energy source.

Tell that line to your recycling parents, teacher or state, then tell them to shut up and go get educated. Lol.

And no I will not explain it. Lol.

It sounds like you are married to my wife.

I do some token stuff but usually throw stuff in the trash. There is a chance that’s what happens when the truck drops it off later.

“I don’t even bother recycling, though my wife has a fetish about it. It’s a pain in the ass, washing out containers and removing plastic bits and labels.”

Just where do you live? We recycle practically everything now and we don’t have to wash out anything! Our “garbage can” goes out every week practically empty. We put food scraps in with the green waste as well. Here in California there is a lot of pressure not to put everything in a landfill, and it’s one of the few good ideas that comes out of our $hitball government.

The only thing worth recycling are metals. everything else is a waste of energy and resources.

For bottle and cans I drop them off at one of my favorite charities that puts out large bins for drop offs.
