Honestly, some of the streets in this city are just atrocious. They are filled with coffee cups, plastic water bottles, pop cans, chip bags, juice boxes, chocolate bar wrappers – enough is enough. How can you people just throw your trash all over the city like it isn’t harmful to the environment or animals or anyone including yourself? It is so disrespectful. It honestly breaks my heart to see how people treat this planet. We should want to take care of it. We are guests on this planet and it is our duty to respect it. There is no excuse for this. It is not hard to throw your empty cups or wrappers in the garbage or recycle where they rightfully belong. There is one every couple feet. Please do your part and make a sincere effort to recycle. If each one of us takes one small step toward being greener, the collective effort could be phenomenal. Together we can make this planet a beautiful place. —Peace, Love, Earth

Watch out for I.E.T.s (Improvised Explosive Timmiescups)
so, if you don’t like all the shit around, pick it the fuck up.
Sometimes that stuff is thrown in the cans attached to the poles or by bus stops etc, unfortunatly they aren’t cleaned out often enough. Not sure if this falls under the city or is it outsourced now. Anyway when they get full to the brim and the wind starts guess what. Hard to belive there would be any returnable items on the street considering the number of people pushing carts with Blue Bags in them.
Guests on Earth eh? Where the hell is home then? Mars? Vulcan? Xenu’s Galactic Confederacy?
Sorry, champ. I’m as against litter as anyone. But this place is home.
It starts at home. Most people today( and I say as much as maybe twenty years ago) no longer teach their children to respect the environment, other people’s property, etc. The earth is now nothing more than a huge garbage can. I used to live close to a Junior High school that had a park across the street and the only time the park was half decent was when school was out for summer holidays.
A large segment of the population are either stupid, ignorant or have lousy aim. Take your pick OP.
IKR OP …
OP. You haven’t realized by now that generally people are too GD lazy to pick up after themselves.
