No littering (Read 2010 times)

Thanks to this thread I must go home and watch Super Troopers tonight.  LOL  I forgot how much I love that movie.

 Meow yes!

Ben10 - This isn't the swamp where you have to be mean.  We have all been in the same position as buggs.  Your tired you just want to be done it would be easy to drop the bottles and not worry about them anymore no matter how much they weigh.  Good job Buggs.  I always have the same thoughts with my gu wrappers.

No, we haven't all had the urge to litter trails.  Hell, I pick up other people's litter when I run trails, it just ain't that big of a deal to carry em out with you.  I subscribe to the 'leave it in better condition than you found it' school of thought.  Must come from years of backpacking.  But props to those who resist the urge(!?) to litter our trails.

It is expected that you spell correctly, if you're going to be snotty.

 

 

(Well, not really, but it gave me a chance to jump on the snottiness bandwagon.)

So in Bearcat Runner's case, the cryptic spelling is ok because he was not snotty?

Hee.

Ok, I'm leaving now.  I will make sure to flush.  And pick up litter.  And stop to provide CPR if need be.  I will give money to the firemen collecting it on the corner for MDA. I will run mostly easy, although easy may or may not be slow.

Yeah, I saw Ben's point too.  I even remember back when this thread started I began a reply in which I told a story of how I was just in a Dunkin Donuts and when the lady turned away to take a drive-through order and left the cash drawer open in front of me I refrained from grabbing the cash even though I really could have used it and aren't I a good person for that?  But I deleted it before posting because I was afraid I'd look snotty to those without a sense of humor.  Alas.

But hey it's good that people don't litter and it's good that people flush the toilets.

And for the record the story was not true at all.  Well I shouldn't say "at all" because I did go to a Dunks that day but I was the guy who went through the drive through so I have no idea what went on in there.

OMG, you know you are spending a lot of time here if you get this. 

MTA:  ....or write this.

hee...me neither.  I don't think the thought has ever crossed my mind.  And it peeves me off to see stuff tossed around like gu packets and gatorade bottles and other running related items.  Even in races, I'll do my best to toss cups into trash cans if they're there, or at worst within seconds of the water station (not somewhere half way between stops), and I've carried stuff in my hands in races to the next station just to make sure it didn't stay around as course litter.

 .

Cryptic spelling is ok, if it leads to a treasure.

Or if I can't distinguish it from correct spelling, which also happens.

Or if I'm too lazy to distinguish it, which is yet more likely.
