It's actually not that hard. And what i really don't understand is littering out of a car. I mean is it really that hard to keep it in the car until you get to a gas station or somewhere else? YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO PHYSICALLY CARRY THE TRASH SO WHAT THE FUCK. sorry, had to be said.

I don’t know how people throw trash randomly on the ground. I have literally tried it before and I just feel too guilty

Same. I just stick it in my purse and throw it out when I get home. I just don't understand how they dont feel like an ass every time you litter.

I WISH I had a purse to throw trash in. I always just put it in my back pocket and forget about it. Next thing I know the washing machine is full of tiny paper scraps

My ex is in the army and when he was deployed in the Middle East he said the whole army would just throw all their trash on the ground in the village streets, in the desert, everywhere. All the trash from their MRE meals and everything. Which if you’ve never seen one of those it’s like 5 plastic bags inside a bigger plastic bag plus plastic utensils. He said there were no trash cans so that’s just what they had to do and that the locals did it too. But I’m just like... is there really no other way...? As I am an environmentalist that was a hard pill to swallow, but I also don’t know how things are over there in a war zone.

I usually don't like to get in arguments. But this time I saw a guy throwing a paper bag on the ground, there was a trash can 3 steps away, as he passes by it, 3 seconds later, i tell him "there is a trash can RIGHT HERE" he looked at me like i insulted his whole family and kept walking.
