I absolutly HATE people who are litterers. I just cant comprehend how someone could be SO lazy to not be able to find a garbage can for their litter. It completely boggles my mind. Its a simple equation.
You buy something + you use the something you bought + you discard any leftover material/remains into a........WAIT FOR IT..... WHATS THE ANSWER? = GARBAGE CAN
I remember when I worked on the service rigs for year, my first week in the driller picked me up at my house in the country. On the first day, we all went to Tim Horton's in the morning for coffee/bagels/etc. As soon as the food was gone, all the wrapper went outside, I didnt say anything at the point, but I wanted to, but being as it was the first day I let it slide.
The next day, the 'guys' show up to my house with those little Chocolate milk 1 litre bottles. We must have just pulled out of my driveway and two of them went out the window. I just SNAPPED. They ended up backing up and picking them up in the ditch to appease me. The whole 8 months I was with that crew after that, none of them threw anything out the window.
I find it as the LOWEST form of disrespect for people to litter. You know what, I would rather someone make the ditch their 'ter' before they toss their tim hortons or chip wrappers out the window.
If I was prime minster of Canada, littering would come with a suspension of license, 100 hour community service, and the inability to go on EI or welfare.....basically your a bum on the street.
I could go on forever, but in all honesty if I see you litter ONCE your on my shatlist for LIFE. There is nothing more telling about a human being...
I have to say this has got to be my NUMBER 1 pet peeve. I just cant stand it.
