I don't know how to feel about this. 2 of the past 3 weeks, my camera has caught someone going through my garbage and taking things. On one hand, I obviously thought it was garbage (extra ceramic tiles and an expired toddler car seat), but on another, I find it weird that someone is driving through the neighborhood looking through garbage.

Different cars, could not tell if it was the same person.

Where do you think the saying "One man's trash is another man's treasure" comes from?

It bothers the hell out of me too.

I see you have a toddler seat.
Does the kid still wear a diaper? Start putting shite diapers on the top so that's the first thing he sees when he opens the garbage.

That's how I got my garbage stealer to stop going through my garbage.

I know I shouldn't get aggravated with this, but it aggravates the crap out of me.

If you really want to see some shite, try putting something small in someone's trash can on the side of the road while they are out there watching.

Its one thing to take stuff like that from someone's trash.
It's another to open the lid and rummage through stuff. I feel like you're looking for something personal, like a credit card bill or something else with private information on it.

Some morons throw away good stuff. The rug in my sister's living room came from someone's trash pile. She picked it up, got it cleaned and it looks great.

I'm not sure you know what a moron is.
That is rather disgusting.

The only thing I see that's garbage is you. Pretty damn trashy to put a child car seat and whole ceramic tiles in the garbage.

I picked up a tackle box off the street the other day. I was happy as I could be.
