Too Much of Nothin'

What You Can Learn From People's Trash

One thing the car wash people DON'T clean in your car, is the back-of-the-seat pockets. I thought I would finish the job by just collecting the "few bits" of trash that had accumulated there while my car was still clean.

 

What I found:

 

5 half-used bottles of drinking water

4 empty trash bags

3 granola bar wrappers

an unknown quantity of used kleenex

a pair of broken sunglasses

and various sorts of other undefinable bits and pieces of paper trash

 

The item that floored me was the 4 empty trash bags. I asked my daughters (who sit in the back seat the most) about this.

 

Me:  ( to daughters) Did you know I found 4 empty trash bags in the back seat?

 

Dds:   Really?

 

Me:    Yes....Why didn't you put all the trash in a trash bag instead of in the pocket of the seat?

 

Dds:   Oh... Is that what they were for? I saw them there, but didn't know that's what they were there for.

 

Me:    No..... Really they're body bags for when I kill you next time for not using them. Got it?

 

Dds:   Hmm. Ok.
