He isn't "right" in the head, but he isn't causing harm to anyone...unless his kids are the subject of extreme ridicule.
Who would want to date the "trash guys'" kid.

@Matt - no kidding. Then he seems like he's wasting more for throwing it all away at once.
@MTAE - Plus, if any of his kids ever decide to "move back into daddy's basement", it will smell like trouble.

Thought I'd chime in. I'm totally fine with everyone thinking I'm not right in the head, but before you judge, maybe you should check out the site at www.365daysoftrash.com. The point is to see how much i waste and in doing so (by being confronted with it) try to change my purchasing habits while not really denying myself much if anything. I've created 31.5 lbs of waste right now compared to approx 1200 lbs for the average American (govt statistic not mine). The first 20 lbs or so was from the first 3 months. I'm now only generating about .5 lbs a month and saving money while doing it. I've eradicated my junk mail (tell me you wouldn't like to do that - the info is on the right hand side) and am lessening my impact on the planet.
That said, I;m fine if you think I'm insane or a tool, but I'd be interested in hearing why (and "your keeping your garbage" in light of what I just said won't cut it).
Also, per the end of the year, the recycling will get recycled, albeit it'll be much less than it would have been had I not done this. The paper will still continue to be fed to the worms. And the garbage is actually going to a museum to be on permanent display and be used as an educational tool.
Thanks for reading.

Also... sorry for calling you a "tool". I edited that out. No hard feelings? :)
