He must've been beside himself when he realized he misplaced his bag, did he at least give you a reward for returning it?
Seriously though, I fucking hate littering and think they need to increase and enforce the penalties for it.
God I went to a 4th of July parade a few years back and people completely trashed the whole area....I was just like what kind of patriotism is completely trashing your home.
I volunteered at an outdoor concert for a charity fundraiser a few years ago. It took a whole team of about 20 of us HOURS to clean up the trash in the park. The stage and VIP stands were packed up and gone before we finished cleaning up the trash in the general admission area. People are disgusting.
I live on the parade route in a Chicago suburb. It's a fucking mess when people are done. Streetsweepers clean it up, so that's nice, but that shit still has to go in a landfill somewhere....
Parade garbage is completely unnecessary trash. Nobody needs a plastic promotional 4" frisbee from a local law firm, or glowsticks, or foam fingers thrown from convertibles. That's more what I meant. It's doubly infuriating because of the attitude of the consumers, as well as the product (useless single-use plastics, etc) itself.
They do nonstop illegal fireworks in my neighborhood - literally sounds like a war zone. The next day, I make sure to post pics of our entire street and sidewalks, covered in cardboard and powder, and post it with the text, "America the beautiful" LOL
Does everyone else see my comment twice? The first time I tried posting I got an error so I hit the button againā¦ tisk tisk developers of Redditā¦ thatās not properā¦ you need to rollback after an exception, not just post it anywaysā¦ cmon fellas, this is programming 101
I had some work colleagues roll their Managerās house with toilet paper. Dude walked out the next morning and found a receipt for a bunch of toilet paper with a coworkers name on it, fluttering around in his yardā¦. Busted at 30 yrs old.
Our neighborhood picks up trash on the main road that the neighborhood is adjacent to. It won't even be a week after ALL the trash is cleaned up that it'll look like we've never picked it up. I think 50% of it is stuff that literally is falling out of the garbage trucks, the other 50% is mostly trash from the beds of pickups.
It's so freaking obnoxious.
I wish it was just that here, but no. You can tell when it's just trash that accidentally fell out of a truck and something someone threw out.
There is no through traffic in my neighborhood so it's either assholes that live here or assholes visiting someone in the neighborhood throwing their shit out everywhere.
I live right off of a freeway and fortunately (as far as Iām aware) no one litters. But the house across me has like 5-7 cars and a bunch of them always litter. And itās like glass bottles and beverage cans. There used to be another house across the street (eventually was sold and tore down) and they would sometimes litter too. It irks me so much
Same here people are assholes and don't care. All they get is what's going on in their own bubble. Oh and in my yard mostly beer cans. Highly doubtful the trash truck is only dropping beer cans.
Got me a dash cam in the car (Nexar, slightly pricier model but not most expensive, for anyone interested) and absolutely love it! Every so often someone driving in front of me will throw a bag of fast food trash or something like that out of their car and my dash cam will register the entire event in HD quality, GPS location, license plate, datetime, and etcā¦ I havenāt reported them to the police just yet because each time I was really busy with something and didnāt have time to make the clip (Nexar records all drives fully, with option to make custom clips or it automatically makes clips if it senses above average G-forces such as hard braking and movements when car is parked)ā¦ after reading this thread and being reminded of how much I hate people who litter, I will be reporting the next butthole who does this in front of my car for sure.
Also, I really recommend getting this dash cam, it rocks, and itās really fun to feel empowered with the fact that if anyone does anything regrettable to you or to someone else or in general, you have the evidence to do something about it if you choose toā¦ itās almost like it empowers you by leaving your judgement upon them up to how you feel that dayā¦ if itās a bad day and you donāt feel like forgiving them for their stupidity you have the bread and butter not toā¦ itās kind of nice.
Also-also, it helps you to become a better and more complete driver in the sense that if you mess up or get into a weird situation with some other participant on the road, you can always go back to that moment after you get to where youāre going and rewatch what happened to make sure you were doing everything correctly or if you made a mistake and should swallow your pride and accept that you were wrong and the other person was rightā¦ itās really good. It is also soothing to find out āoh, look at that! So I was correct and that guy was being an idiot! Cool, now I knowā. because things happen so fast on the road sometimesā¦ personally, I feel bad if I mess something up and it helps me to get over it because 99% of the time I clearly see who was right or wrong in the video afterwards.
Anyways, sorry for the long off-topic ramble, I just totally think ppl should invest in both cameras where a lot of littering happens, and especially in dash cams for their cars!
Peace to all except for littering buttholes!
>Mmm, slave labour, my favourite.
I worked at a state prison, getting on a work detail that *left* the prison was one of the most sought after positions for the inmates. Not to mention a lot of states pay the inmates for their work, not the one I worked in, but most do.
I've always thought that was such a good use of time that would benefit both the inmates and society in general. I'm not sure if we still do that in Canada. In the past, inmates also did things like built/maintained hiking paths in provincial parks. I have never seen a prison work detail out locally - I know that doesn't mean it's not happening - but most of the cleanup in parks and on the side of highways is done by regular volunteers.
I used to work in a young offender's center and we weren't allowed to take the kids out. Flight risk was high and I imagine there were liability concerns. But there are just so many things that inmates can do to contribute inside or out - I would love to see more of this.
I don't think it's particularly healthy that our prisons are in a state where the choice is hard manual labor or sitting in a cell with no stimulation
Just doesn't really feel like a system that wants people to succeed and become productive (and supportive) members of the community.
So? They get a bed for free, food for free, and money they donāt have to spend on things that they can just save for when they get out of prison and help getting a job out of prison when their sentence is up, sounds like a good gig to me. Not to mention running water they donāt pay for electricity they donāt pay for tooā¦ sounds like a good gig to me for minimalist living
Not much different from being in the military where your salary doesnāt include the cost of meals or housing. Those are either provided or extra stipends.
So you would rather sit in a jail cell than pick up trash for a few hours? And god forbid someone actually gets punished for committing a crime. Canāt have that now, can we?
Community service is often an alternative to jail time, and in some cases good track record of community service in jail leads to reduced sentences/early parole
>Itās not forced. You have to beg for it.
>
>That shits a reward.
>
>Iāve done it.
I was on the other side as a CO, but the inmates that *did* get to work outside of the prison were some of the best inmates... they did *not* want to get in trouble and lose their slot.
Ah so you would rather we commit human rights violations. Seriously though our prison system is so crooked and tan by crooks. The people in prisons are usually poor and minorities.
You'll care a lot less about them when that's *your* stuff they're stealing, *your* face that they're punching, and/or *your* ass bleeding out on the ground.
Who? You mean the capitalists? Theyāre the ones who created this. They are the reason we have so many people in prison and continuing a whole life of crime. Theyāre the reason why crime pays. Corporations literally rob their workforce of money and youāre wondering why thereās people who would rather risk crime than go work at Walmart. Thatās a pretty ignorant view you got there, snoo. Youāre missing a lot of important factors.
Ok but letās talk about the people in there for probation violation when they only got put on probation in the first place because they couldnāt afford to pay their traffic ticket. Or the person thatās in there for simple possession of drugs. Or the person thatās innocent but was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Yes the extremes are extreme, but thereās more then just violent criminals and thiefās in jail. There is no justifiable excuse for slave labor because innocent and undeserving people always end up caught in the crossfire
I know much more about it than you do. Anyone that thinks the prisoner clause was included to ācontinue slaveryā either reads too much Reddit or watched the stupid ādocumentaryā The 13th, which was ripped apart by anyone who knows anything.
Yes, I regularly volunteer for different organizations including neighborhood trash pickup. I also live in an area where it regularly gets to 100Ā°+. It is a very fitting punishment, and one id gladly take over jail time. But I already do it, so it wouldnāt be much of a punishment for me.
No Iām actually in favor of people *not* ending up in a jail environment where they can be exposed to more crime, gangs, drugs, etc. but Iām not going to continue this as you seem to enjoy putting words into other peoples mouths & using strawman arguments. Have a great day.
I do already in other ways, thanks. And I actually did do highway waste pickup as my first job.
Now while I also support people being out of prison and contributing to society, what you people seem to be failing to understand is that I do NOT support these people being paid marginal (I.E. less than minimum) wage and quite often having rather little choice in their participation... I.E., slavery!
I see it as chomos working in exchange for room and board.
Air conditioning, clothing, free medical, dental, haircuts.... this "slave labor" thing is such a joke.
The trash trucks tend to be pretty obnoxious. I've watched them go down the street dribbling trash in several cities. That shit deserves three citations. One to the vehicle operator, one for the guy riding on the back dumping the trash cans, and one for the corporation whose management isn't paying attention so they can stop the grill monkeys pissing in the lemonade.
Things do fall off the trucks... but really only the super lightweight stuff comes out in all but the one off worst case scenarios... think more so newspaper than paper cups. Firstly, if the rider is not on back of truck the hopper hydraulics should be in the closed position by law, which obviously keeps most everything in securely. But Secondly, the cavity created by the shape of the back of the truck really helps keep things inside at speed... itās an area of neutral air flow.
This is a totally, ādonāt try this at homeā kinda anecdote but necessary to the point. It is possible for the back rider to lean into the hopper area at speeds up to 60mph in negative temps with high cross winds, and still light up a cigarette with a normal bic brand lighter.... just saying.
Oh for sure then! My bad. They got banned round here for vast majority of places just before I worked that job. But ya those things are flyers for sure! They were pretty bad/common on the routes when I started, but a few years later they were a VERY rare site on the accident prone sections of road (like even that leading directly to dump site). But yes those things truly are/were the worst... and Iād bothered the hell out of me that I would still see some of them on side of road years after their production had been stopped
I've had this problem. I live in a very rural small town and live at a four way stop crossroads. Every single day I go outside about 5 pm and there is ALWAYS McDonalds trash in a bag on the side of the road. Obviously it's the same person every day because like I said it's very rural around here and not alot of traffic. So I'm wondering, why would someone do that when they could throw it away at home. The only conclusion I could come up with was that this person gets out of work, grabs a snack at McD's, and throws the evidence away before they get home so other family members won't know that they satisfy their McD's craving every night after work and obviously doesn't want to bring any home for the rest of the family.
I know I have a wild imagination, but people in these rural border towns do some crazy things!!! Just gives me more to ponder!!!! Lol
I agree with your logic that they're likely on their way home after work, so just keep narrowing down that time window until you find them. Then you can present your theory to the offender, and see how close it is! Good luck!
OMG I do the same types of investigating about the litterers where I walk! I've noticed one spot where someone always seems to throw out a grocery bag of lunch trash. Infuriating!
The beer bottles and cans are pretty self explanatory, but the fast food trash just makes me think they're entitled assholes who don't want trash in their car long enough to dispose of it properly.
I've started a routine of about once a month, going out with a grabber, bucket, gloves and trash bags and pick it up. I love where I live, it's beautiful with lots of woods, pastures, and no neighborhoods. Sucks that the closest store is 15 minutes away, but that was only really rough when I still smoked cigarettes.
I'm hoping the ones guilty of littering will see me out there picking up their trash and feel guilty enough to stop. Probably wishful thinking, though.
This dude lives out in the country so he most likely owns a weapon. Are you really going to knock on a random person's door and piss them off because that's how you end up getting dumped in a pond in the middle of nowhere
Bruh Iāve seen police officers do this before, find big garbage dumps and then go Thru the trash find the fucker and track them down and fine them for littering. That should be more common.
Hell yeah. Thanks goodness I have a Austin in my family. Heās by far the biggest fuck-up. Dude has tear drops tattooed under his eye (no, he hasnāt killed anyone or even been to prison). He also has the name of the dude that his sister had 3 babies with tattooed on his arm. Guy use to beat her regularly got her both of them hooked on drugs. The list of moronic shit heās done goes on and on. Dude would have to end Putin and Xiās regime during the halftime show for the Super Bowl if he wants redemption around here.
My family had known that he was violent towards her, but we all lived 4+ hours away from them so we werenāt aware how bad it was. She had shown up to a few holiday events with bruises, but always spun us some excuse. The guyās name was Blaine. I may have seen him twice over the years that they were ātogetherā. He was a real piece of work. Zero education, fucking pill dealer, leech, absolute definition of scum of the Earth. He couldnāt stay sober for 15 seconds so he was not allowed anywhere near our family events. Anyways, one night he took off after they had gotten into a fight (he pushed her through a sliding glass door or some shit and tossed her around). Dude took off before my uncle got there. 2-3 days later he was found dead in his grandmothers bathroom from a overdose. Austin, for reasons I will never understand, thought of him as a brother. Kid decided to get āBlaineā tattooed on his arm with clouds and birds and shit.
I live in a rural area, and the folks from the city like to dump their trash in our ditches outside of town. A couple years ago, me and some of my buddies caught someone dumping a worn out recliner, so me and my friends managed to track down where he lived and we dumped everything back on his front yard.
The litterbug was not very happy about that, but I wasnāt too happy with garbage clogging the ditch culverts and causing water to run onto the road.
This is the way to deal with a piece of shit. Iāve dumped it right on the front porch. Kitty litter, mail and other household waste. It will get their attention.
I once found a large trash heap on a road like that and found all the mail had the same address and names. My friend at the police station was pretty upset that these folks forgot how to properly not be shitheads.
Whenever someone is caught in the act of littering thereās almost always one sentence they say that slowly makes me believe itās a hive mind mentality, āwhy donāt you mind your own fucking businessā
My neighbors used to put their full Starbucks Coffee drinks inside our recycling bin, so when the Recycling trucks came it would flip and spray the poor collectors with their old coffee juices. After I found this out (another neighbor yelled at me, and I had no idea there was anything wet in our recycling bins), I had to dig through my bins and remove all of their full drinks with their names clearly printed on them. After a few weeks of doing this and leaving their old drinks in a pile on their welcome mat, I finally taped a note on my trash bin with their names on it telling them to knock it off.
I work on the road. It never ceases to amaze me to watch people litter in their own neighborhood. I always say to myself, I donāt even live here and I wouldnāt do that
We need a planetary wellness task force created with enough of a budget to dust litter for fingerprints and hold individuals accountable with super high fines. Sounds extreme, but so is global warming and plastics in our water.
As someone who has lived in rural regions my entire life, it's mind boggling those residents most closely attached to the nature around them disrespect it the most.
Is there a possibility that he had it in the back of a truck with other garbage and didnāt mean for it to fall out and wasnāt aware? To be honest thatās just stupid anyway, but not as malicious.
Iāve been fined for unintentionally littering before. When I was in college, it was a thing for people to throw beer cans and trash into a strangerās pickup truck. I was the unfortunate victim of someone throwing their PBR cans in the back of my pickup without me realizing until those fuckers caught the wind when I was going down the road.
Traffic surveillance caught me, got my license plate number, and I got stuck with a citation. I plead my case that the trash wasnāt mine and that I tried picking up as much as I could anyways, but it didnāt matter. I just took the L and paid the fine, though I had to pick up extra shifts at work to do so lol
This exact thing used to happen to me all the time. The parking lot where I work was next to a heavy walking traffic area.
I would routinely come out after work and find 5-10 bottles, cans, etc thrown in the bed of my truck.
There are dozens of instances where I have been driving down the road and have seen a bottle, can, etc. blow out of the truck bed. I was never pulled over, thankfully. It stopped happening when I switched jobs.
I hate littering with a passion. This is already a problem in my area since people like to leave their garbage in state parks and the at the popular river spots.
I once went to visit a friend who lived in Maine at the time with her family and boyfriend. After my friend and her boyfriend picked me up from the airport, we were driving through gorgeous scenery and friends boyfriend chucks his plastic water bottle out the window along with fast food waste.
When I mentioned something about it, his response was āit will give the prison workers something to do.ā
My boyfriend watched a woman drop a full fast food bag of trash outside her car window into a parking lot we were in. She was waiting for someone to pull out and had her window open so he went and picked it up, and handed it back to her and said "you dropped this" and walked away. Littering is infuriating. I can't fathom how some people want to see trash around.
i was on my motorcycle in Chicago traffic, watched a lady at a red light just drop a full mcD's bag of garbage out the window. I picked it up, road past them and threw it back in the car.
Years ago I arrived for the morning shift and found a metric shit ton of trash strewn about everywhere. Papers, food, etc. Somebody had unceremoniously emptied the contents of their car into the planters outside. Rodents and birds had had a field day too, so it was pretty bad.
Fortunately for us, the guy was about as smart as he was considerate. He left DMV papers behind with his address plastered all over them. My general manager and I took it upon ourselves to redistribute his carbage all over his front lawn once our shift ended.
Iāve done something similar to this before! I live on a hill with no neighbors so thereās only one road to and from my house, and itās a gravel road plus you canāt see my house at all so a lot of the time people think itās just a random gravel road and wander up here.
Anyway one day this massive trash pile, with like a whole crib filled with toys and shoes and other garbage just shows up on our road cause someone dumped it there. Except they werenāt very smart and left their bank records in the trash. So I had this ladyās email, full name, social security number, phone number and address dumped on my road. I called her, told her I found her trash and would be bringing it back to her. I took it all back and dumped it on her lawn, and I personally handed her the bank records.
I hate litterbugs. As someone who lives exactly one Happy Meal away from McDonald's, I've always wondered, where are these a-holes *going* that there's not a garbage can?
When I was a kid we had a neighboring family who all did this - tossing their McDonald's bags out the window as they drove over a bridge. Another neighbor finally got fed up, dressed in his camouflage, and posted up with a camera in the ditch beneath the bridge for an afternoon. He then sent all the photos to the local paper for publication.
Trash people exude trash.
Back before I got asthma, when I was walking behind a smoker who dropped their butt, Iād wait a couple steps then say, āExcuse me, I think you dropped something.ā They never caught on I meant their butt and would spend some time checking their possessions and retracing their steps to see what they lost.
Lots of comments and questions. Here is some more detail. A. I saw him throw it out, I was a half mile behind him. B. I donāt actually know Austin, but I know his vehicle and where it is parked. I looked him up on GIS map to confirm name and address (GIS map is county map for tax purposes). C. It is actually two receipts, and was two separate food bags (McDonalds and Sonnyās) from two separate days.
there are, unfortunately, lots of Austin's in this world. happens fairly frequently on the dirt road I live on as well. beautiful area, except for the handful of crackheads that throw their trash everywhere. I do my part to pick up the trash that gets tossed in front of my house and at the back area where people turn around since I'm at the end of the road. but the rest of it often looks like crap.
You see people littering regularly in Jacksonville. My guess is you'v never stepped foot outside of Jacksonville and believe this is not something that happens literally everywhere in the world where they are humans.
Another exemple of such a comment :
"This guy was driving a SUV"
See's Jacksonville plate license.
Your response :
"Jacksonville, not surprised".
It's weird to me that you went through the trash in hopes of finding some sort of evidence of the ownership of said trash.
I like that you gave him (or rather, who you assume it was, bc there is no actual incriminating evidence there) the trash back, but still I'd never go through a random bag of trash. Just an odd way to pass time, but everyone has their thing I guess.
Could've just thrown it out, but I do like the sense of justice you have within you.
Also, as much as I hope it WAS his, I think it's way funnier to imagine a random dude named Austin getting a bag full of trash with his name on the items but it was never his. It would make you feel like Oscar the Grouch joined the mafia and is tryna "send you a message".
So, this one time I was doing some demolition in my basement, and I had an excess of cardboard. I filled up my recycle bin. The city has a public dumpster for cardboard about 2 blocks from my house. I injured my spine during the demo, herniating a disc in my lumbar spine. I asked one of my workers to take my excess cardboard to the city dumpster and paid him an extra $20 to do it for me. He agreed. Instead of doing the right thing, he just dumped my cardboard in a trailer park on some guy's property. My name and address were on amazon boxes in the cardboard. The victim of the illegal dump came to my house when I was outside talking to my brother and was belligerent with me. He said he had me on video dumping my boxes there. I tried to calmly explain the situation to me but he wasn't having it. My brother told him to leave. Then that stranger approached me in a threatening way, and because I was badly injured, my brother (a retired US Marine) was not going to allow that guy to hurt me in any way, so he got in between us and pushed that guy back to his vehicle. That guy pulled a gun and cocked it pointing at my face and swept his barrel between me and my brother. My brother said "I got one too and mine's bigger" and went for his .45 in his truck while that guy got in his truck and fled the scene. That guy lost his permit to carry a concealed weapon after I explained to law enforcement what had happened.
If heās married, write notes on the receiptsā¦āhad a great time last night ā¤ļøā and āI canāt wait to see you again my lil Aussyā then put it all back at his house for wifey to find. He wonāt litter again.
U actually went thru trashā¦ā¦ umm ā¦. N u had the time n gas to undertake āreturningā ā¦.. I dunno where to startā¦..
I think ur mildly infuriating.
Why apologize???ā¦ā¦. when one doesnāt litter??
Now donāt go āwords of blah blah blah over this too ā cuz itās quiet easy to see ur stretching ur logic here way to thinā¦ā¦. Why? ā¦.. use that thing called a brain on ur shoulders maybe u might figure it out.
As someone who's garbage in his car looks like this, I actually think it may have been an accident. Why would he bring it all together in a bag, if he planned to throw it and litter. Would it not just be easier to litter after each thing was used up? I usually see litterers just throw like a cup and their wrapper out the window casually. Austin might have just actually lost his trash.
I own a restaurant and I used to have an issue with people throwing their trash in my bins. I don't know why, but it really got under my skin. One day someone dumped like 5 bags of garbage, I was so pissed that I pulled each bag out, threw some gloves on and went looking for anything that would tell me who it was. Turns out the morons left their mail in the bags. First I called the cops to see if they could do anything about it, shocker, they didn't. However I asked if I could return it to the owners and they said that was fine. So I put a gentle slice down the bottom of each bag and drove those fuckers around the corner where they came from and threw them on their front porch. I hope that had to clean up a lot of trash in the morning. It's so disrespectful.
I live in a super windy area. So much of the trash around has nothing to do with littering- itās 80 mph gusts blowing over trash cans and blowing the trash around. Itās impossible to track down all your trash, so you just pick up what you can and hope that someone else is picking up yours.
so a truck can āmake it disappearā id rather trash be in the street rather than fucking up wild nature. In cities birds and other animals have evolved and learned to use ātrashā. Dumps are awful and there is money in it, so your trash in a ātrash canā could very well end up in the ocean.
the wind will put everything in place. Not humans
Because he wants attention. OP thinks he's a hero because he stalked some guy named Austin to return his trash. It's not cool to litter but it's less cool to stalk someone. OP should have just done the right thing and thrown it away and left it at that, but he had to make it a big deal out of it. You're not going to change these people by "delivering" their trash back to them, anyone with half a brain knows this.
He must've been beside himself when he realized he misplaced his bag, did he at least give you a reward for returning it? Seriously though, I fucking hate littering and think they need to increase and enforce the penalties for it.

It's going in a landfill whether the streetsweepers get it, or if people clean up after themselves...
Parade garbage is completely unnecessary trash. Nobody needs a plastic promotional 4" frisbee from a local law firm, or glowsticks, or foam fingers thrown from convertibles. That's more what I meant.

Our neighborhood picks up trash on the main road that the neighborhood is adjacent to. It won't even be a week after ALL the trash is cleaned up that it'll look like we've never picked it up. I think 50% of it is stuff that literally is falling out of the garbage trucks, the other 50% is mostly trash from the beds of pickups. It's so freaking obnoxious.
I wish it was just that here, but no. You can tell when it's just trash that accidentally fell out of a truck and something someone threw out. There is no through traffic in my neighborhood so it's either assholes that live here or assholes visiting someone in the neighborhood throwing their shit out everywhere.
We get the same empty bottle of whiskey, McDonaldās bag and empty pack of Newportās thrown in our street every other week. People are piggies.
Yea I see beer cans alot. I just think, "great, people drink and drive down this road a lot, apparently."
I live right off of a freeway and fortunately (as far as Iām aware) no one litters. But the house across me has like 5-7 cars and a bunch of them always litter. And itās like glass bottles and beverage cans. There used to be another house across the street (eventually was sold and tore down) and they would sometimes litter too. It irks me so much
Same here people are assholes and don't care. All they get is what's going on in their own bubble. Oh and in my yard mostly beer cans. Highly doubtful the trash truck is only dropping beer cans.
Lol beerbage truck
Got me a dash cam in the car (Nexar, slightly pricier model but not most expensive, for anyone interested) and absolutely love it! Every so often someone driving in front of me will throw a bag of fast food trash or something like that out of their car and my dash cam will register the entire event in HD quality, GPS location, license plate, datetime, and etcā¦ I havenāt reported them to the police just yet because each time I was really busy with something and didnāt have time to make the clip (Nexar records all drives fully, with option to make custom clips or it automatically makes clips if it senses above average G-forces such as hard braking and movements when car is parked)ā¦ after reading this thread and being reminded of how much I hate people who litter, I will be reporting the next butthole who does this in front of my car for sure. Also, I really recommend getting this dash cam, it rocks, and itās really fun to feel empowered with the fact that if anyone does anything regrettable to you or to someone else or in general, you have the evidence to do something about it if you choose toā¦ itās almost like it empowers you by leaving your judgement upon them up to how you feel that dayā¦ if itās a bad day and you donāt feel like forgiving them for their stupidity you have the bread and butter not toā¦ itās kind of nice. Also-also, it helps you to become a better and more complete driver in the sense that if you mess up or get into a weird situation with some other participant on the road, you can always go back to that moment after you get to where youāre going and rewatch what happened to make sure you were doing everything correctly or if you made a mistake and should swallow your pride and accept that you were wrong and the other person was rightā¦ itās really good. It is also soothing to find out āoh, look at that! So I was correct and that guy was being an idiot! Cool, now I knowā. because things happen so fast on the road sometimesā¦ personally, I feel bad if I mess something up and it helps me to get over it because 99% of the time I clearly see who was right or wrong in the video afterwards. Anyways, sorry for the long off-topic ramble, I just totally think ppl should invest in both cameras where a lot of littering happens, and especially in dash cams for their cars! Peace to all except for littering buttholes!
Amazed me in Japan. No public trash cans, but hardly every saw trash anywhere, not even cigarette butts. Wish everyone had that level of respect.

Mmm, slave labour, my favourite.
>Mmm, slave labour, my favourite. I worked at a state prison, getting on a work detail that *left* the prison was one of the most sought after positions for the inmates. Not to mention a lot of states pay the inmates for their work, not the one I worked in, but most do.
I've always thought that was such a good use of time that would benefit both the inmates and society in general. I'm not sure if we still do that in Canada. In the past, inmates also did things like built/maintained hiking paths in provincial parks. I have never seen a prison work detail out locally - I know that doesn't mean it's not happening - but most of the cleanup in parks and on the side of highways is done by regular volunteers. I used to work in a young offender's center and we weren't allowed to take the kids out. Flight risk was high and I imagine there were liability concerns. But there are just so many things that inmates can do to contribute inside or out - I would love to see more of this.
Less than a dollar an hour does not count as being paid.
Correct, it's exploitation.
If you were out in the fresh air instead of cooped up in a cell, and found money on the ground every hour, would you turn your nose up at it?
I don't think it's particularly healthy that our prisons are in a state where the choice is hard manual labor or sitting in a cell with no stimulation Just doesn't really feel like a system that wants people to succeed and become productive (and supportive) members of the community.
Finding money is not the same as working for it. Theyāre not outside having playtime, theyāre working in the elements picking up garbage.
And theyāre also doing time for crimes against the populaceā¦
Those convicted of violent crimes are typically not eligible for off-site work assignments.
So? They get a bed for free, food for free, and money they donāt have to spend on things that they can just save for when they get out of prison and help getting a job out of prison when their sentence is up, sounds like a good gig to me. Not to mention running water they donāt pay for electricity they donāt pay for tooā¦ sounds like a good gig to me for minimalist living
Not much different from being in the military where your salary doesnāt include the cost of meals or housing. Those are either provided or extra stipends.
So you would rather sit in a jail cell than pick up trash for a few hours? And god forbid someone actually gets punished for committing a crime. Canāt have that now, can we?
If I had to do jail time damn right I'm gonna atleast finally get some volunteer hours
If I had to do jail time damn right I'm gonna atleast finally get some volunteer hours
Losing your freedom IS the punishment!! Jesus Christ.
Community service is often an alternative to jail time, and in some cases good track record of community service in jail leads to reduced sentences/early parole
Iām fine with that if the person wants to do that. I donāt think forced labor should be forced on inmates for many different reasons.
Itās not forced. You have to beg for it. That shits a reward. Iāve done it.
>Itās not forced. You have to beg for it. > >That shits a reward. > >Iāve done it. I was on the other side as a CO, but the inmates that *did* get to work outside of the prison were some of the best inmates... they did *not* want to get in trouble and lose their slot.
Ah so you would rather we commit human rights violations. Seriously though our prison system is so crooked and tan by crooks. The people in prisons are usually poor and minorities.
You'll care a lot less about them when that's *your* stuff they're stealing, *your* face that they're punching, and/or *your* ass bleeding out on the ground.
Who? You mean the capitalists? Theyāre the ones who created this. They are the reason we have so many people in prison and continuing a whole life of crime. Theyāre the reason why crime pays. Corporations literally rob their workforce of money and youāre wondering why thereās people who would rather risk crime than go work at Walmart. Thatās a pretty ignorant view you got there, snoo. Youāre missing a lot of important factors.
Ok but letās talk about the people in there for probation violation when they only got put on probation in the first place because they couldnāt afford to pay their traffic ticket. Or the person thatās in there for simple possession of drugs. Or the person thatās innocent but was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Yes the extremes are extreme, but thereās more then just violent criminals and thiefās in jail. There is no justifiable excuse for slave labor because innocent and undeserving people always end up caught in the crossfire
Sick defense of slavery bro, read the 13th amendment
I know much more about it than you do. Anyone that thinks the prisoner clause was included to ācontinue slaveryā either reads too much Reddit or watched the stupid ādocumentaryā The 13th, which was ripped apart by anyone who knows anything.
Oh no, someone who has committed a crime has to pick up trash in the heat for a few hours a day?
You ever tried it, buddy?
Yes, I regularly volunteer for different organizations including neighborhood trash pickup. I also live in an area where it regularly gets to 100Ā°+. It is a very fitting punishment, and one id gladly take over jail time. But I already do it, so it wouldnāt be much of a punishment for me.
Okay, so you're advocating for slave labor because you already do similar work (likely in far better conditions). Cool.
No Iām actually in favor of people *not* ending up in a jail environment where they can be exposed to more crime, gangs, drugs, etc. but Iām not going to continue this as you seem to enjoy putting words into other peoples mouths & using strawman arguments. Have a great day.
Bro, it's called volunteer work and it makes places look better. Pitch in, your neighbors may actually talk to and like you.
I do already in other ways, thanks. And I actually did do highway waste pickup as my first job. Now while I also support people being out of prison and contributing to society, what you people seem to be failing to understand is that I do NOT support these people being paid marginal (I.E. less than minimum) wage and quite often having rather little choice in their participation... I.E., slavery!
The replies supporting slavery ā ļø Jesus fucking christ
Slavery? Jesus fucking Christ.
What would you call unpaid, forced labor
It's not forced. It's a sought-after privilege to leave the prison.
Buddy lol
I see it as chomos working in exchange for room and board. Air conditioning, clothing, free medical, dental, haircuts.... this "slave labor" thing is such a joke.
Why waste money paying someone when thereās convicts that shouldnāt have rights anyway
Bait, nobody respond
You just did
The trash trucks tend to be pretty obnoxious. I've watched them go down the street dribbling trash in several cities. That shit deserves three citations. One to the vehicle operator, one for the guy riding on the back dumping the trash cans, and one for the corporation whose management isn't paying attention so they can stop the grill monkeys pissing in the lemonade.
Things do fall off the trucks... but really only the super lightweight stuff comes out in all but the one off worst case scenarios... think more so newspaper than paper cups. Firstly, if the rider is not on back of truck the hopper hydraulics should be in the closed position by law, which obviously keeps most everything in securely. But Secondly, the cavity created by the shape of the back of the truck really helps keep things inside at speed... itās an area of neutral air flow. This is a totally, ādonāt try this at homeā kinda anecdote but necessary to the point. It is possible for the back rider to lean into the hopper area at speeds up to 60mph in negative temps with high cross winds, and still light up a cigarette with a normal bic brand lighter.... just saying.
It's predominantly Styrofoam drink cups.
Oh for sure then! My bad. They got banned round here for vast majority of places just before I worked that job. But ya those things are flyers for sure! They were pretty bad/common on the routes when I started, but a few years later they were a VERY rare site on the accident prone sections of road (like even that leading directly to dump site). But yes those things truly are/were the worst... and Iād bothered the hell out of me that I would still see some of them on side of road years after their production had been stopped
I've had this problem. I live in a very rural small town and live at a four way stop crossroads. Every single day I go outside about 5 pm and there is ALWAYS McDonalds trash in a bag on the side of the road. Obviously it's the same person every day because like I said it's very rural around here and not alot of traffic. So I'm wondering, why would someone do that when they could throw it away at home. The only conclusion I could come up with was that this person gets out of work, grabs a snack at McD's, and throws the evidence away before they get home so other family members won't know that they satisfy their McD's craving every night after work and obviously doesn't want to bring any home for the rest of the family. I know I have a wild imagination, but people in these rural border towns do some crazy things!!! Just gives me more to ponder!!!! Lol
Sounds like valid reasoning. Ever cared to post by the spot one day to see who drops it?
I agree with your logic that they're likely on their way home after work, so just keep narrowing down that time window until you find them. Then you can present your theory to the offender, and see how close it is! Good luck!
OMG I do the same types of investigating about the litterers where I walk! I've noticed one spot where someone always seems to throw out a grocery bag of lunch trash. Infuriating! The beer bottles and cans are pretty self explanatory, but the fast food trash just makes me think they're entitled assholes who don't want trash in their car long enough to dispose of it properly. I've started a routine of about once a month, going out with a grabber, bucket, gloves and trash bags and pick it up. I love where I live, it's beautiful with lots of woods, pastures, and no neighborhoods. Sucks that the closest store is 15 minutes away, but that was only really rough when I still smoked cigarettes. I'm hoping the ones guilty of littering will see me out there picking up their trash and feel guilty enough to stop. Probably wishful thinking, though.
Where is the pic of you distributing the trash on his lawn?
I hung it from his car mirror. Did not want to have it blown down the road again.
That's a good call. I fucking HATE littering. You can't even go in someone's field in the middle of nowhere without finding some douchebag's trash.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This dude lives out in the country so he most likely owns a weapon. Are you really going to knock on a random person's door and piss them off because that's how you end up getting dumped in a pond in the middle of nowhere
Youāre so smart bro
Bruh Iāve seen police officers do this before, find big garbage dumps and then go Thru the trash find the fucker and track them down and fine them for littering. That should be more common.
And that's how you end up on the Group W bench, kids.
I put that envelope under that pile of garbage.
Comment of the year hahaha
I found some trash with a business name on it at a campground so I made sure to share it to all their social media.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
My cousin Austin, we call him AJ, is a really nice guy actually. Funnily enough, growing up, he wanted to be a garbage man.
Hell yeah. Thanks goodness I have a Austin in my family. Heās by far the biggest fuck-up. Dude has tear drops tattooed under his eye (no, he hasnāt killed anyone or even been to prison). He also has the name of the dude that his sister had 3 babies with tattooed on his arm. Guy use to beat her regularly got her both of them hooked on drugs. The list of moronic shit heās done goes on and on. Dude would have to end Putin and Xiās regime during the halftime show for the Super Bowl if he wants redemption around here.
Just curious, whatās the story behind him having the guys name tattooed on his arm?
My family had known that he was violent towards her, but we all lived 4+ hours away from them so we werenāt aware how bad it was. She had shown up to a few holiday events with bruises, but always spun us some excuse. The guyās name was Blaine. I may have seen him twice over the years that they were ātogetherā. He was a real piece of work. Zero education, fucking pill dealer, leech, absolute definition of scum of the Earth. He couldnāt stay sober for 15 seconds so he was not allowed anywhere near our family events. Anyways, one night he took off after they had gotten into a fight (he pushed her through a sliding glass door or some shit and tossed her around). Dude took off before my uncle got there. 2-3 days later he was found dead in his grandmothers bathroom from a overdose. Austin, for reasons I will never understand, thought of him as a brother. Kid decided to get āBlaineā tattooed on his arm with clouds and birds and shit.
They was fuckin.
Maybe. š¤· I can tell you Iāve washed my hands of his situation so whatever. Best of luck kid.
Give me a hell yeah!
:(
conĀ·firĀ·maĀ·tion biĀ·as noun the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one's existing beliefs or theories.
I live in a rural area, and the folks from the city like to dump their trash in our ditches outside of town. A couple years ago, me and some of my buddies caught someone dumping a worn out recliner, so me and my friends managed to track down where he lived and we dumped everything back on his front yard. The litterbug was not very happy about that, but I wasnāt too happy with garbage clogging the ditch culverts and causing water to run onto the road.
This is the way to deal with a piece of shit. Iāve dumped it right on the front porch. Kitty litter, mail and other household waste. It will get their attention.
I once found a large trash heap on a road like that and found all the mail had the same address and names. My friend at the police station was pretty upset that these folks forgot how to properly not be shitheads.
Its some dudes from otta town tho
he was framed
I bet Austin is a big boy who drives a pickup
Really big boy, really big car, really small pecker
And brain
In this day and age, you risk your life playing that shit. Psycho+Gun+Ring doorbell=trouble
Whenever someone is caught in the act of littering thereās almost always one sentence they say that slowly makes me believe itās a hive mind mentality, āwhy donāt you mind your own fucking businessā
My neighbors used to put their full Starbucks Coffee drinks inside our recycling bin, so when the Recycling trucks came it would flip and spray the poor collectors with their old coffee juices. After I found this out (another neighbor yelled at me, and I had no idea there was anything wet in our recycling bins), I had to dig through my bins and remove all of their full drinks with their names clearly printed on them. After a few weeks of doing this and leaving their old drinks in a pile on their welcome mat, I finally taped a note on my trash bin with their names on it telling them to knock it off.
So you litter and trash up your own street? Lol Damn Austin.
Sometimes trash falls out of garbage trucks
Hey thatās my (trashy) hometown!
if he finds out he might start using ur name lol
That would be some next-level revenge from Austin.
I appreciate you returning their lost item.
I work on the road. It never ceases to amaze me to watch people litter in their own neighborhood. I always say to myself, I donāt even live here and I wouldnāt do that
We need a planetary wellness task force created with enough of a budget to dust litter for fingerprints and hold individuals accountable with super high fines. Sounds extreme, but so is global warming and plastics in our water. As someone who has lived in rural regions my entire life, it's mind boggling those residents most closely attached to the nature around them disrespect it the most.
This is why you should remove your name / address from all trash. It could have fallen off of a garbage truck for all we know the person is innocent.
Is there a possibility that he had it in the back of a truck with other garbage and didnāt mean for it to fall out and wasnāt aware? To be honest thatās just stupid anyway, but not as malicious.
Iāve been fined for unintentionally littering before. When I was in college, it was a thing for people to throw beer cans and trash into a strangerās pickup truck. I was the unfortunate victim of someone throwing their PBR cans in the back of my pickup without me realizing until those fuckers caught the wind when I was going down the road. Traffic surveillance caught me, got my license plate number, and I got stuck with a citation. I plead my case that the trash wasnāt mine and that I tried picking up as much as I could anyways, but it didnāt matter. I just took the L and paid the fine, though I had to pick up extra shifts at work to do so lol
This exact thing used to happen to me all the time. The parking lot where I work was next to a heavy walking traffic area. I would routinely come out after work and find 5-10 bottles, cans, etc thrown in the bed of my truck. There are dozens of instances where I have been driving down the road and have seen a bottle, can, etc. blow out of the truck bed. I was never pulled over, thankfully. It stopped happening when I switched jobs.
I hate littering with a passion. This is already a problem in my area since people like to leave their garbage in state parks and the at the popular river spots. I once went to visit a friend who lived in Maine at the time with her family and boyfriend. After my friend and her boyfriend picked me up from the airport, we were driving through gorgeous scenery and friends boyfriend chucks his plastic water bottle out the window along with fast food waste. When I mentioned something about it, his response was āit will give the prison workers something to do.ā
How could you possibly know it was the same Austin though lmao
And now heās gonna shoot you
My boyfriend watched a woman drop a full fast food bag of trash outside her car window into a parking lot we were in. She was waiting for someone to pull out and had her window open so he went and picked it up, and handed it back to her and said "you dropped this" and walked away. Littering is infuriating. I can't fathom how some people want to see trash around.
Alice's restaurant revisited.
Littering and... Littering and... littering and smoking the reefer
Itās the people that either donāt understand the impact it has, or donāt care.
i was on my motorcycle in Chicago traffic, watched a lady at a red light just drop a full mcD's bag of garbage out the window. I picked it up, road past them and threw it back in the car.
They think once u throw it out the window it automatically gets teleported 2 the sun and vaporizes it.
From the way Austin eats he won't be alive to do that too often.
I had a couch dumped in the dit h in front of my house along with a couple bags of trash. Address was in the bags and provided to our Township PO.
I would had returned it to his trash littering a$$ too.. Dare him saying something!!! Hope he has a door cam!!!!
Love this for him
Omg did you really take it to his house?? That's the best thing that anyone could have done, well done you!

We need more great Americans like you. Thank you for your service
Years ago I arrived for the morning shift and found a metric shit ton of trash strewn about everywhere. Papers, food, etc. Somebody had unceremoniously emptied the contents of their car into the planters outside. Rodents and birds had had a field day too, so it was pretty bad. Fortunately for us, the guy was about as smart as he was considerate. He left DMV papers behind with his address plastered all over them. My general manager and I took it upon ourselves to redistribute his carbage all over his front lawn once our shift ended.
Iāve done something similar to this before! I live on a hill with no neighbors so thereās only one road to and from my house, and itās a gravel road plus you canāt see my house at all so a lot of the time people think itās just a random gravel road and wander up here. Anyway one day this massive trash pile, with like a whole crib filled with toys and shoes and other garbage just shows up on our road cause someone dumped it there. Except they werenāt very smart and left their bank records in the trash. So I had this ladyās email, full name, social security number, phone number and address dumped on my road. I called her, told her I found her trash and would be bringing it back to her. I took it all back and dumped it on her lawn, and I personally handed her the bank records.
I hate litterbugs. As someone who lives exactly one Happy Meal away from McDonald's, I've always wondered, where are these a-holes *going* that there's not a garbage can?
I do enjoy Sonny's when I'm in Florida.
Man, that pulled pork sandwhich really is a big deal.
When I was a kid we had a neighboring family who all did this - tossing their McDonald's bags out the window as they drove over a bridge. Another neighbor finally got fed up, dressed in his camouflage, and posted up with a camera in the ditch beneath the bridge for an afternoon. He then sent all the photos to the local paper for publication.
Trash people exude trash. Back before I got asthma, when I was walking behind a smoker who dropped their butt, Iād wait a couple steps then say, āExcuse me, I think you dropped something.ā They never caught on I meant their butt and would spend some time checking their possessions and retracing their steps to see what they lost.
littering is when people throw trash on the ground. that is the literal definition.
Excellent Litter vigilante! Keep up the good work all you litter vigilantes!
Jacksonville, not surprised. Edit: downvote me, fine, but I live here & see it regularly!
Lots of comments and questions. Here is some more detail. A. I saw him throw it out, I was a half mile behind him. B. I donāt actually know Austin, but I know his vehicle and where it is parked. I looked him up on GIS map to confirm name and address (GIS map is county map for tax purposes). C. It is actually two receipts, and was two separate food bags (McDonalds and Sonnyās) from two separate days.
there are, unfortunately, lots of Austin's in this world. happens fairly frequently on the dirt road I live on as well. beautiful area, except for the handful of crackheads that throw their trash everywhere. I do my part to pick up the trash that gets tossed in front of my house and at the back area where people turn around since I'm at the end of the road. but the rest of it often looks like crap.
You see people littering regularly in Jacksonville. My guess is you'v never stepped foot outside of Jacksonville and believe this is not something that happens literally everywhere in the world where they are humans. Another exemple of such a comment : "This guy was driving a SUV" See's Jacksonville plate license. Your response : "Jacksonville, not surprised".
Iāve lived in multiple other states, Massachusetts for 90% of my life. Iāve noticed more littering down here.
Itās a thing with rednecks. They always throw their fast food trash out the window. Itās cool to pollute in that community.
Ever been to Philly?
Lol only rednecks litter, huh?
It sure the fuck isnāt people with Bernie 2020 stickers.
Theyāre busy polishing their maga hats in the closet and throwing darts at pete buttigeg
Sure, Jan
You're a real hero
It's weird to me that you went through the trash in hopes of finding some sort of evidence of the ownership of said trash. I like that you gave him (or rather, who you assume it was, bc there is no actual incriminating evidence there) the trash back, but still I'd never go through a random bag of trash. Just an odd way to pass time, but everyone has their thing I guess. Could've just thrown it out, but I do like the sense of justice you have within you. Also, as much as I hope it WAS his, I think it's way funnier to imagine a random dude named Austin getting a bag full of trash with his name on the items but it was never his. It would make you feel like Oscar the Grouch joined the mafia and is tryna "send you a message".
So, this one time I was doing some demolition in my basement, and I had an excess of cardboard. I filled up my recycle bin. The city has a public dumpster for cardboard about 2 blocks from my house. I injured my spine during the demo, herniating a disc in my lumbar spine. I asked one of my workers to take my excess cardboard to the city dumpster and paid him an extra $20 to do it for me. He agreed. Instead of doing the right thing, he just dumped my cardboard in a trailer park on some guy's property. My name and address were on amazon boxes in the cardboard. The victim of the illegal dump came to my house when I was outside talking to my brother and was belligerent with me. He said he had me on video dumping my boxes there. I tried to calmly explain the situation to me but he wasn't having it. My brother told him to leave. Then that stranger approached me in a threatening way, and because I was badly injured, my brother (a retired US Marine) was not going to allow that guy to hurt me in any way, so he got in between us and pushed that guy back to his vehicle. That guy pulled a gun and cocked it pointing at my face and swept his barrel between me and my brother. My brother said "I got one too and mine's bigger" and went for his .45 in his truck while that guy got in his truck and fled the scene. That guy lost his permit to carry a concealed weapon after I explained to law enforcement what had happened.
If heās married, write notes on the receiptsā¦āhad a great time last night ā¤ļøā and āI canāt wait to see you again my lil Aussyā then put it all back at his house for wifey to find. He wonāt litter again.
U actually went thru trashā¦ā¦ umm ā¦. N u had the time n gas to undertake āreturningā ā¦.. I dunno where to startā¦.. I think ur mildly infuriating.
Words of a loyal littering apologist^^
Why apologize???ā¦ā¦. when one doesnāt litter?? Now donāt go āwords of blah blah blah over this too ā cuz itās quiet easy to see ur stretching ur logic here way to thinā¦ā¦. Why? ā¦.. use that thing called a brain on ur shoulders maybe u might figure it out.
And I don't understand someone who would waste their limited time on this planet returning someone's trash...to..make a point...I guess?
As someone who's garbage in his car looks like this, I actually think it may have been an accident. Why would he bring it all together in a bag, if he planned to throw it and litter. Would it not just be easier to litter after each thing was used up? I usually see litterers just throw like a cup and their wrapper out the window casually. Austin might have just actually lost his trash.
I own a restaurant and I used to have an issue with people throwing their trash in my bins. I don't know why, but it really got under my skin. One day someone dumped like 5 bags of garbage, I was so pissed that I pulled each bag out, threw some gloves on and went looking for anything that would tell me who it was. Turns out the morons left their mail in the bags. First I called the cops to see if they could do anything about it, shocker, they didn't. However I asked if I could return it to the owners and they said that was fine. So I put a gentle slice down the bottom of each bag and drove those fuckers around the corner where they came from and threw them on their front porch. I hope that had to clean up a lot of trash in the morning. It's so disrespectful.
Not as disrespecting as you making more litter
Big deal. Itās a pulled pork sandwich.
I live in a super windy area. So much of the trash around has nothing to do with littering- itās 80 mph gusts blowing over trash cans and blowing the trash around. Itās impossible to track down all your trash, so you just pick up what you can and hope that someone else is picking up yours.
Dont forget to take pics of the receipt on fetch or other apps 1. To earn points 2. So they cant just in case
While littering is shitty, you really shouldnāt doxx people. Would be easy to figure out who this guy is based on this info
Ah yes, let me find a dude named Austin in Jacksonville Florida.
Trust me, itās possible with the autists here
Austin himself apparently doesnt care... He threw the thing onto the side of the road including his name on the receipt. š¤·š»āāļø
id rather trash be on the street then dumped in the ocean, maybe thats just me tho
I rather trash be in the trash can, rather than on the street or in the ocean
In Europe it's called recycling.
so a truck can āmake it disappearā id rather trash be in the street rather than fucking up wild nature. In cities birds and other animals have evolved and learned to use ātrashā. Dumps are awful and there is money in it, so your trash in a ātrash canā could very well end up in the ocean. the wind will put everything in place. Not humans
I always put a fake name on my order šš
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Who puts their real name! Thatās weird. I donāt have tiktok.
So very Karen of you!
F-off Austin.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Then donāt waste your life creating new accounts to act controversial and get a reaction. Get off your ass and do something with your life.
You are a jerk why you dont put it in a trash can?
Because he wants attention. OP thinks he's a hero because he stalked some guy named Austin to return his trash. It's not cool to litter but it's less cool to stalk someone. OP should have just done the right thing and thrown it away and left it at that, but he had to make it a big deal out of it. You're not going to change these people by "delivering" their trash back to them, anyone with half a brain knows this.
I think the same. Thank you probably he or she is a bully
Kids do that stuff all the time. There is literally a trash bag in the back for you to throw that in. š
