Old Lady should turn that period into a comma next time she's putting poop in the bin. Or maybe just put white-out on it.
Who cares, it's all going to the same place. You parted with your trash, it's not like it's a storage bin for you to get stuff out of later.
Many people do this after the bins have already been emptied, meaning that for the next week, you have to deal with a bin that smells like dog shit.
So? The lid is closed and keeps 99% of the smell down.
Are you sitting right next to yours while chilling or something?
I open mine maybe 3x a week to put a bag in, big whoop it stinks.
As someone whose bin receives unwanted poop, the issue is that it goes straight to the bottom of the bin and never leaves because they don't lift the cans up all the way. Then it gets smashed by my own trash, so now I have a permanently poopy-smelling trash bin that receives weekly deposits.
I agree with you half way. If a person asks then yeah, however you don’t know where the trash bin is being stored. It could make it extra smelly and they may not want that to be next to their house. If it’s on the curb about to be picked up, sure why the heck not.
Because single poop bags tend to slide down and get mashed to the bottom so the can always smells life dog shit.
sounds fair
My friend (who's an engineer) is so fed up with a neighbor doing this he's building an electric dog whistle that'll automatically go off. Seems a bit petty to me but 🤷
Oftentimes, these kinds of people don't bother to check if the bins have already been picked up or not, so you get a bin that smells like dog shit for the next week.
Your friend sounds very creative, I'd personally go for gluing a piece of velcro to the inside lip of the handle with razor blades on it. Of course, I'm also not an engineer, just somebody whose grandfather was friends with the #2 Hell's Angel for a state who would ask if he wanted him to "take care of" problems like that. The old razor blades and broken glass in the root ball trick worked wonders when somebody was repeatedly stealing the shrubs out of my grandfather's pots.
If he asked nicely first, he's not in the wrong. Post vids, sounds hilarious.
