Well, it’s bulk pickup week in our neighborhood. This means that the streets are flooded with overloaded pickup trucks filled with peoples’ cast-offs. Grills, cabinets, snowboards (in Texas?), monitors, and all sorts of junk. I don’t know why the city even bothers sending a truck around, since ALL of the good stuff is picked pretty quickly. Maybe they should just announce a bulk pickup and let the junk guys do the rest. That would save the city some money.

Alas, there is a Single Sad Sentinel which is ignored by all of the junk guys. I give you, the neglected toilets:

There are toilets EVERYWHERE. It’s as if there was a big Digital Toilet Switchover and everyone got rid of their old thrones. Pretty sad. If only there were some way to re-use these things. I’ve seen people use them as planters, but they look pretty stupid that way. Ah, well. Another pile of porcelain for the landfill.
