Trash

I hate hate HATE when I see someone throw trash out their car window, especially if that trash is a cigarette butt. It annoys me to no end. If it happens at a stoplight, it takes every bit of control to keep from getting out of my car, picking up the smoking butt and flinging it back in their window while saying, "Excuse me. You dropped something of yours."

Do they not understand that they are littering? Do they not see that they are trashing up the streets? What makes them think it's ok to do this? I just don't get it.

Did I say how much it irks me? So much that I'm certain my blood pressure increases and my heart rate goes up when I see it happen. (In fact, it is rising right now just thinking about it!)

But alas, there is vindication!! Got bless Texas and the internet:

You too can report someone littering -- just make note of their car make/model/license plate/location/date -- and within a few weeks of reporting them online, they will receive a notice in the mail along with a trash bag for their car.

I'm starting to feel better already.
