WTH.
I truly don't get how folks cannot clean up behind themselves. That was just plain nasty. Being a diabetic is no excuse for just leaving a bloodied napkin lying on the table.

I've been fortunate that I have never encountered that type of boorish behavior but I have seen folks just walk away from where they were sitting without the courtesy of picking up their trash. This is a first-world country but you'd never know it by watching some folks mindlessly littering.

You ain't see fire hazard till you live in drought conditions and see that cig fly out the window of car.

Can we say thousand of acres lost in Texas due to fire. luckily it was in the Texas outback / desert. Not too many homes lost but came close several times.

Is THAT what caused the wildfires to reign out of control in Texas?

Absolutely right... How about the people who scream and throw fits because they have kids who drop crap on the floor at home and leave it there for someone else to pick up....THEN you see them out in public, eating something, throw the wrapper on the ground and WHAT? ...expect someone else to pick it up! Wow Forest Gump...
I wonder where your kids learned how to do THAT!?

Out here in the rural areas of Oklahoma, some people think it's cool to toss out their mcD's trash right in the middle of the country road, or hwy.

And we live near a well known "dump site" where people come and dump couches, trash bags, dead dogs, anything they don't want to take to the dump. It is about 2 miles from town on a dirt road by a railroad track.

How sad is that? I even saw a man letting his 12 year old boy drive the pickup there. Thereby passing on this behavior as acceptable.
