Reply to: Do you throw litter on the street?

Sexist, homophobic and disability descriminatory all in one post. Like it!

Oh, I should also mention that other deities and demigods are available.

I aim to live up to my signature, my canine compadre.

Puts me in mind of these Tesco recycling machines that give clubcard points for recycling cans.

And is it New York where you used to see the guys with huge bags of plastic bottles collecting the refund money?

Not sure it will work here though - I still see the deposit type glass bottles just lying around - and I think they are 30p refund.

Bring back hanging for littering. After the first hanging, the problem will be solved.

You'd think it wouldn't be too hard to design a machine that will scan an item's barcode to find out how recyclable an item is

The worse case of blatant littering was in the back of a clapped out bus with no suspension, being driven by a moron whose grasp of the laws of physics was fragile, to say the least. While being knocked around in this mobile death trap, the heat in Morocco at that time was intense, all of us simply sweated like blind lesbians in a fishmongers.

To add to our misery, one of the locals was furiously vomiting a disgusting brown liquid into a clear plastic bag, her foul brew brimming dangerously close to the top.

Much to out horror, once she had expelled the stomach Satan, she tied the bag up and dumped it unceremoniously in the middle of the bus aisle, where it madly writhed, bulged and shapeshifted, threatening to release its tormented toxic demon upon the bus's helpless captives.

I think we all prayed to Edesia that trip.

In that intense heat I'm sure that the local lady was merely presenting you with regurgitated fluids to prevent you developing dehydration, and you have the cheek to revile her for her selfless act

CM, get the thermometer, Churchy's ill!

Has CM taken you to the vets to have you done or something?

I honestly didn't see anything in the post to infer that it was meant "tongue in cheek".

So I can do nothing else but apologise. It won't happen again, make the most of it.

[BrilloPad]

If that was the case I apologise.

I make a point of only dropping litter in posh areas, like Hampstead or Chelsea, in an attempt to bring down the tone of the area equal to where I live.

Seriously though, I used to live in a house on a main road with a very large hedge, so I can sympathise with others who have had to fish out beer cans. And don't get me started on low-lifes who let their dogs tulip outside your front gate.

Also, I was amazed when I went to Monaco and the streets were absolutely spotless. London looked like a rubbish tip in comparison when I got home.

When I was a lad you could take bottles back to the shop and get a deposit back.

Maybe comon litter items (like tin cans) should have to have a deposit on them?

Make litter out of gold and there would be no litter problem, although it might taken a while to save up for your first Mars bar.

All that litters is not gold.

[mudskipper]

You're getting older, oldies have always complained about litter. Seems to me it was worse in the past, and walking the pavements of tulip was like a doing a slalom. People would leave trails of tulip footprints behind them.

Yep - no-one picked up doggy-doo twenty years ago. At best you'd kick it into the gutter.

So is dropping litter for someone else to pick up any different to spam-tagging threads for someone else to clean up?

You are bad.

One is done by a group of cretinous proles while everyone drops litter.
