Not facing your garbage bin the right way on garbage night. Look I know this is some lily white suburban bullshit but it just annoys me to no end that my neighbors won’t take just one quick second to read the giant print on our bins that says “FACE THIS SIDE TOWARDS STREET” for the benefit of our sanitation workers. Their job is hard enough without having to tango with your hosed up bin positioning

In my suburb the garbage men carry a sharpie pen and if you put your bin out facing the wrong way they'll write a stern note on the lid reminding you. They've got those fancy trucks with the robot arms which pick the bins up for them and if they have to get out of the cab and turn a bin around so the arm can grab it they get really annoyed. :v:

Also there's a council bin inspector who will do surprise audits on an entire street on bin night and attach a big pre-printed cardboard sign to someone's bin if they sorted their garbage wrong and put an un-recyclable item in the recycling, so all your neighbours can see your MARK OF SHAME and know that you're a bad recycler :nyd:

That sounds ineffective. What if they just didn't get their trash picked up that day? Are garbage companies part of the government where you're from?

My garbage COMPANY simply won't pick up the trash or bill you extra for not following the rules. Not really sure which is better.

Yeah I'm in Australia and the garbage companies are contracted/run by the local councils, paid via the yearly rates. In my area they have decals of the local council logo plastered all over the trucks.

Being on dialysis sounds like a pretty poo poo time to be fair. It doesn’t mean you can’t care about other stuff, but I’d forgive having a bit less emotional space to give when your kidneys don’t work cause you’re probably pretty sick.

People with brand loyalty to a particular type of American piss-flavored beer (Budweiser, Miller, Coors etc.) as if they didn't all taste exactly the same I judge to be shallow morons who probably also listen to pop country and mumble rap. I've seen evidence of this usually being the case.

Being able to hear someone's music on public transport when they have earbuds in. I don't know if it's really fuckin loud or the earbuds are just really lovely but I don't care.

Just shows a total blissful lack of awareness, floating on never realising people can hear their bad music, never caring that maybe we don't want to.
