Was this “disgusting”?

| Our trash collection happened really early this morning and I couldn’t get the last small bag (1/3 of a kitchen bag) of trash out like I usually do before they picked up. It was some food leftovers from Easter and some old fruit, so I didn’t want it sitting in the can for a week. I took it in my car and stopped at our neighborhood park and threw it in the large trash receptacle. A woman walking by told me what I did was “disgusting”. |

| Wow, I don’t know if it was disgusting… But it was not appropriate. Those cans are for people enjoy enjoying the park, and there really isn’t space in them for people to be doing what you were doing. |

| Disgusting isn’t the right word but entitled to think you can use a public trash receptacle when there’s signage that says that’s not allowed for public dumping just because you didn’t want your precious garage to stink. That is something |

| So you were either too lazy to take it out last night, too lazy to wake early enough this morning, but gave yourself enough time to drive across town to find a public receptacle where public dumping is not allowed. Got it. |

| Yeah, that’s a jerky thing to do. Garbage cans smell, who cares. |

| What if everyone did that? |

| Also strange that you wouldn’t eat fruit you had out yesterday, sounds wasteful all the way around. Couldn’t you eat it for breakfast today? |

| Why does your trash only come once a week? |

| Yikes! I didn’t realize this was such a terrible discretion. I apologize and feel embarrassed now. I won’t do it again. Thanks, DCUM! |

DP, where do you live where you get it more than once? In Arlington county it only comes once a week, but we are a very small county compared to Fairfax. |

I'm going to differ here and applaud your creative solution. |
