The Important Matter of NOT Recycling

dumbkid

Poor brainwashed kid. Willing  victim of slave labor

Fuck recycling. You tree hugging dipshits can separate the plastics from the wood; I throw everything in one big disgusting bag, so that the slobs, better known as “garbage men,” can pick it up for me and toss it in their filthy trucks. Trust me, I’m not being a snob about this, nor do I hate the environment. I’m just painfully indifferent to the plight of the recyclers. The way I see it, the city is making coin off of my labor: fuck them and their environmental edicts.

This is a point of contention in The Casa de Fly, as Mrs. Fly is a HUGE advocate of recycling. She figures by stacking our blue garbage bins with empty Monster Sodas, the world will be saved and the sea lions will have icebergs to lay out on.

FUCK THE SEA LIONS and FUCK ICEBERGS. As far as I’m concerned, icebergs never did shit for me; why should I care about them?  Any of you folks every hear about the Titanic?

As a result of my anti-recycling behaviour [sic], the garbage nazis have targeted me and leave tickets on my door, just about once per week. They must think $50 fines will deter “The Fly” from pursuing his egregious course of action, which is to not give a fuck about recycling. I throw banana peels inside of my milk cartons, then throw them inside empty LCD tv boxes and place it on the curb. Who said I wasn’t a gangster?

Fuck the Department of Sanitation aka “Recycling Nazis,” and their $50 fines. They must not know how much money I have in my fucking checking account.

You should see those fat bastards rummaging  through my fucking trash—like upright walking pigs— just to catch me with a  few plastic bottles mixed in with my chicken bones. At the end of the day, I refuse to be a victim of SLAVE LABOR, sorting shit out for assholes with an agenda. I don’t play that game. As a matter of fact, I don’t play any games: I make them. Remember that shit, always!

More on that topic at a later date.

Be well.

NOTE: Let’s hope Mrs. Fly doesn’t catch wind of this subversive blog.

    Move down South and put your garbage in a big fucking 50 gallon drum and burn it, recyclables and all.

      Who needs a dumpster. I just throw my trash out of my upstairs window into the backyard. When the pile of garbage reaches the 2nd story, I just move to a house on the next block.
      When I drive down the street, I’ll drive on the other side of the street if I feel like it. No one tells me what to do. Fuck all these rules & the rulemakers;-)

    Your post has not deterred me from recycling. I do it whenever I can.

    I also believe in global warming and anyone who says just because this weekend was cold, and we had a blizzard, that that is enough reasoning to say global warming is fake. I think your A FUCKING MORON if you say that whoever you may be. Lots of those type of people on twitter.

    When you have 100 years of data, actually 100,000 years worth of hard data showing the true trend its hard to say otherwise.

    Plot the numbers on a fucking stock chart so then you could better understand global warming. Or maybe you thought that one spike was the move and the move is over. I wonder how many spikes and dips AAPL had before it came to our present price?

    I apologize for the name calling. This is the interwebs. I do come here to vent sometimes. <3 everyone in the end.

        And I dont think we should do anything about global warming. The true impact if any wont be felt for another 100 years. So I say we party like theres no tomarrow, or 100 years in the future. Its not like we can stop it. China will keep polluting the shit out of the planet along with India. So why should we hurt ourselves? I know im being selfish but I have given up trying to say global warming isnt happening and fighitng those fake callers.

        I always think about the scientist, sometimes I wish they would give up and let us all just go downhill. I think it would be better. Whats better then a bubble before the burst?

          Pete,

          I don’t know if it’s happening or not. But, Michael Crichton’s book “State of Fear,” at the very least, made me question it.

          Also, as an aside, what a great writer.

          However, the most telling incident occurred when some friend of a friend visited us on the Big Island and we tried to entertain them.

          They were from California and, in secret ,this guy told me he tried to buy the book, but his wife wouldn’t let him because it was a bad book.

          In my opinion that’s a good example of the social pressure of that many liberal have to endure.

          Although they may be right, this kind of social pressure really is kind of fascist!

        Pete, your opinion is a result of relentless fear-mongering by the likes of Al Gore and his cronies on the far-left. The goal of their fear-mongering, of course, is political gain. Wake up.

          Let’s say Al Gore is a relentless fear-mongering jackass doing things for his personal & political gain.
          It has absolutely nothing to do with whether there is or isn’t global warming.
          Tying totally unrelated assumptions together is an all to common mistake.

      Some expert at Gonzaga University, with a lot of time on his hands, calculated that at current rates all the garbage in the US over the next 1,000 years would fill up a 35 square mile landfill 100 yards deep.

      This sounds like one of those “Holy shit!” scary figures until you consider this is about one tenth of one percent of the land currently used for grazing in the US. Also, this would be the accumulation over 1,000 years by which time we should have bigger things to worry about, like overthrowing our robotic overlords.

      As for saving resources by recycling, this is where it gets tricky. Partly this is because whether or not recycling saves resources depends on whether you consider human labor to be a resource (that is, the effort to pick up, sort and transfer the items to be recycled). Recycling requires more trucks, more crews and more people to oversee the entire process. In Los Angeles alone there are twice as many garbage trucks than there would have been without the recycling program. Just like those douchebags who drive to the gym to run on a treadmill but still hop in the car to go the one block to the corner store to pick up their pork rinds and soda, it’s not clear just how much benefit there is at the end of the day.

      Also, re-using something is not always better than just tossing it away. A chemist at the University of Victoria calculated that you would need to use a ceramic mug 1,000 times before you would see benefits over using disposable polystyrene cups for those 1,000 cups of coffee. This is because it takes far more energy to make that mug and takes energy and water to wash it after each use.

      Im just saying, dont deny its happening just to counter the argument and be on the other side of the line.

        The Chairman is basically a crook and we’ve been had for a large part.. I think there is a long term problem with emissions but you can deal with that shit by just allowing nuclear power to take its rightful place. Emissions are a sign of success, success that millions and millions of people are being lifted out of poverty.

        Hitler’s children want to send them all back to the stone age.

        He does sound like Mark Steyn (toff English) on the phone, which is ironic, since neither of them are legitimately British (Steyn is Canuckistanian, and Ozzie J is Ozzie).

      Not only is recycling a scam moneymaker for the sanitation comapnies, but buying recycled paper is also a scam. Make sure you buy sustainably farmed toilet paper (e.g. cottonelle, kleenex used to be dicks, but now nearly all their trees are sustainable). Non-recycled toilet paper is good for the environment. When trees get sufficiently large, they stop taking in carbon from the atmosphere. It’s good for the environment to chop a couple down and hide it in the ground, while planting new trees that will take in more carbon. So remember, the Seventh Generation toilet paper at whole foods is probably worse than big-bad Kleenex Cottonelle. Recycling uses a lot of energy and doesn’t create carbon sinks. Fuck the hippies, wipe your ass on old-growth trees while saving the environment.

    Recycling: it’s good for you:

    A woman returned home after a shopping trip and was horrified to find her husband in bed with another, younger woman. Just as she was about to rip her husband a new one, he quickly explained the situation:

    “You have to hear about how this happened. While driving home, I saw this young girl looking poor and tired so I offered her a ride. Since she was hungry, I brought her home and fed her some of the leftovers in the refrigerator that you had forgotten about. Her shoes were worn out, so I gave her a pair of your shoes that you don’t wear because they went out of style. She got cold, so I gave her that sweater I got you for your birthday that you never wear because you don’t like the color. Her jeans were worn and full of holes, so I gave her a pair of yours that you don’t fit into anymore. Then, as she was about to leave the house, she asked, ‘Is there anything else that your wife doesn’t use anymore?’”

  21. Speculation

    On stockcharts.com, they have the $OEXA50R which is the percentage of stocks moving above their 50 day moving average. I noticed that this anectdotal indicator might be at an extreme point. The last two pivots July and October this index was at 33%. It is now at 33% and climbing.

    Of course, this indicator could always sell down more which is the flipside of this theory, but the logical point of pivot seems now. So lets hope the SPY and IWM seem to hold on today.

    I also wanted to note that the $RUT yesterday bottomed at the high of 2000. I am thinking that 614.16 on the $RUT is a solid psychological support.

    I agree Fly. I just had this conversation with some friends a month or two ago. My biggest complaint was the separation part. I too feel I shouldn’t be doing this considering they make loads of cash selling the plastic pellets back to companies to reproduce products(bottles, fleece sweaters,etc..), which then in turn gets sold back to me at a premium via gubermint taxes.
