I declare February 7th National Litter Day. The scene above begs two questions: A. Does anyone really chew that much gum in one sitting? B. If not, why did they collect a small fortune of slightly used gum and strategically deposit it where a commuter would exit his/her vehicle? I did not stick around to find out the answer (yes, pun intended).
On my way home from work, I enjoyed an almost ten-mile traffic jam, thanks entirely to some bags of garbage strewn along the shoulder and median. Random items included red plastic Solo cups, cardboard boxes, and toothbrushes (still in their wrappers). There is only one plausible explanation for this, of course: that a van load of frat guys collided with a van load of dental hygienists.
