da Share Zone strategy is unbeatable. gently caress spending a year of your life harassing people for CCTV footage and wasting court time over a couple hundred quid - even if I was unemployed I'd value my time a lot higher than that

I'd be scared to run in case the jobsworth in question decided to get their own back by uploading the video to the internet. You never want to be on social media awkwardly fleeing from someone with a bodycam, you might as well have 'I've been found out sending explicit texts to 14 year olds' tattooed on your forehead. Life ruiner.

I've seen one of these authorised officers trail a woman smoking a cigarette for at least a minute until they dropped it, then demand they come back out of the hotel lobby they'd just entered onto the street so they could get their fine. Spectacular mall cop bullshit

I thought the whole litter wardens thing tended to be councils hiring private companies to collect fines? These people tended to target more vulnerable people than others - I used to work for a charity aimed at helping disabled adults and the amount that came in upset they had lost their weeks income for dropping a cigarette seemed higher than other groups I'm in. Aye, littering is bad, but it seems a disproportionate punishment for people who don't have much money and smoke, especially with money that could be spent on more bins instead contracting private companies as an additional income stream or whatever. Its bullshit.Trin Tragula posted:Know Your Rights: Council Busybodies Edition Nice

Yeah cigs are nasty, I've only smoked a handful in my life and I regretted it every time. Those new snus-like synthetic nicotine pouches you put under your lip though, now they're good, gently caress me.

I don’t want to start another “should the left vote Labour” debate again, but every time I think that maybe I’ll hold my nose next election and vote for whatever melt runs in my constituency, the PLP come out with more right wing bullshit. I imagine a fair number of left leaning people would probably vote Labour if they had some mild social democratic policies (like utility nationalisation), but the party seem to want to actively turn away even that demographic. They’re just so poo poo.

Vote for whoever you can who's placed to the left of Labour. Green or TUSC or whoever else. But not the Lib Dems, for the love of god.

Littering isn't an issue you can just solve with more bins. Go to any carpark with a McDonald's drive through nearby. You only have to wait maybe 10 minutes before you see someone dump their eaten order out their window because stepping out of the parked car and taking the 10 steps to the bin is just too much to ask.

The office for my last job used to be near a university building. I'd often walk past it to get my lunch and as I was doing so I'd see students dropping their cigarette ends on the ground and walking into the weird automated revolving doors (they'd sit open until someone entered then they'd wait a second before starting to turn - revelant). One day when I was doing so I saw a girl drop her cigarette, stand on it, and walk towards the revolving door and without thinking about it I picked it up, walked over to her, and as she entered the door said "excuse me, I think you dropped this". She turned around with her hand out (I don't know how I was this lucky), I put the cigarette end in her hand, and before she had a chance to realise what was going on the automated door had started revolving and she had to move inside or get hit by it. It sounds like an unrealistically convenient "and then everybody clapped" story, but if I was going to invent one of those I'd at least try to come up with something that makes me seem like less of a loser oval office. I loved it though.

prank for a dull afternoon; go out for a smoke, attract the attention of a litter cop but have your cig butt with a bit of fishing line on it just short enough to not hit the floor when you drop it.

Do not recommend a 3 hour drive after that. My horrors tend to do the same (and when a Maine coon shits itself in a confined space the results are /not/ pretty). When we moved from London to Shropshire we dosed up all three of them with Xanax and some sort of kitty tranquilliser. Rosa spent the entire trip on her back with her mouth open in her carrier, Bob dozed most of the way and Digby woke up for the last half hour and started to industriously chew through his carrier- which was designed for medium sized dogs. The little shite. Then when we got here all of them walked like drunken sailors for a few hours. Wish I’d thought to video them- it was hilariously cute.
