I understand and sympathize with your frustration but did no one ever explain that you're supposed to wash those things out occasionally? 60 seconds with the hose on a semi-regular basis solves the problem. If that doesn't work then you can use can liners to prevent it.
It's not fair that you have to go through extra work or expense to solve a problem that someone else is creating but its better to take action than it is to sit there and stew over it.
Hosing it out doesn't help unless I do it every week.
I'm not stewing over it, it's the poopcan that's stewing in the sun until I come home from work.
So? Are you sitting on it to read a book? The smells mostly contained with the lid closed, and unless you have it right outside the window like a moron, it doesn’t waft in the house.
You realize people keep rotten compost piles I. Their yards… yeah?
So big a deal a bin you open a few times a week stinks, why are people making such a huge deal out of this?
I would much rather they pick it up and do this than leave the turd on the grass.
Are people seriously this fucking entitled that they can’t let someone use their bin so they don’t need to carry a bag…? The hell happened with community spirit and being neighborly?
Yeah, what happened to community spirit and being neighborly? And I mean you. You're acting like you're entitled to being an asshole for your convenience at the cost of someone else's convenience. Someone doesn't want you to use their stuff for your shit and somehow you think they're wrong? Get on board with community spirit and stop being an ass.
See attractive nuisance laws, if you have shit you don’t want people to use, protect it, or people can be feee to use it, or you will be held liable if someone hurts themselves if you don’t communicate otherwise.
If you don’t want it used, lock it up or put it out of site, society fixed this a long time ago, but people STILL want to be unneighborly shit heels and pretend they’re being part of the community but than cry when someone used their fucking garbage bin… give your head a shake, you’re being a hypocrite lmfao.
Are you dumb on top of being an asshole? How on earth would garbage collection take the garbage if I lock the bin and hide it away?
… you unlock it when you wheel it to the curb for pickup.
You call me dumb and you couldn’t think of this simple and very easy solution…?
If you unlock it and wheel it to the curb, it's not protected anymore. Now assholes have access to it. They can dump dog shit even after the trash has been emptied on the trash day.
Are you a child? Are we discussing risk of injury? The attractive nuisance doctrine is irrelevant to this discussion.
Edit: Didn't realize you were the same person from the other thread who I already gave up on. I don't intend to respond.
