Today, feeling angry at the world, I threw a bottle, that had been clearly marked to be recycled, into a garbage can as an act of defiance. Minutes later, I guiltily retreated and spent the next few minutes with my entire arm stuck up the stinking ass of a city garbage can. FML

I like the environment and would normally applaud what you did (I do applaud what you did, good job), but I'd never do that.

Who knows what could be in there. That's just disgusting. But OP, wasn't it near the top? It did you leave it all day to e covered?

10-OP said, "minutes later", so it was near the top. But he also said it was a "stinking ass" trashcan so it's still pretty gross.

Reading comprehension, 10. OP went trash snorkelling "minutes later".

OP should have just left it. It will biodegrade anyways. And my bad on the "minutes later" part.

Not if it's plastic it won't biodegrade. That why you should recycle. OP should have felt guilty and I'm glad he has a conscience.

Yeah, plastic only breaks into smaller and smaller prices, but never breaks down.

Each person has their own way of releasing anger, and it's a lot better than how most people do it.

You are because you clearly lack the intelligence to realise that it was a typo.

If that is what OP does when they're trying to rebel and be angry, then there is no reason to call somebody an idiot. I'm actually proud that OP felt remorse and dug it out of the trash can. You wanna talk about being an idiot? People who get mad, punch walls, and break their arms/hands/wrists are the idiots. Or people who get mad and hit their spouse/kids are the idiots. Or the people who get mad and drive their cars like a bat out of hell and risk killing themselves, or others, are the idiots... Way to go, OP! Way to keep it calm and fix your mistake! :)

There are better ways of unwinding. Many of which involve NOT being shoulder deep in garbage.

This doesnt seem like that big of an fml when it could have been easily avoided... YDI throwing it in the garbage bin in the first place...

I think a little grime on your arms is a small sacrifice to make since you are helping to save the planet, a little at a time.
