Messiness. Everywhere.

It's easy to become discouraged by humanity when you keep coming across scenes like this.

I try to ease the disappointment by convincing myself that the long-gone litterbugs simply forgot their drinks there - or on the supermarket shelf, or the bus stop bench, or... - but then I realize there can't be that many forgetful people in the world.

Aside from my finding a convenient place to dispose of the evidence, I see no way, save for DNA matching and facial recognition-based video surveillance, of fixing it. Because you can't teach manners, apparently, and too many people around us have decided they no longer care.

Kinda sad, isn't it?

  1. I think they're so use to other people taking care of it--- like their mothers. And that's a sad fact

  2. It is sad and a reflection of a rather lazy society.

  3. I think it reflects the broken social contract that is much bigger. Why be courteous in a system where the few winners don't give a shit about average people. society is sick and I blame the "leaders" and "winners" for setting the tone while they plunder our common wealth.

  4. As long as there is help nearby, people will feel free to be irresponsible.
