  • Speed, mass and smell my dear Watson.

    They hardly break over 20 mph.

    They are HUGE, so it’s gonna take more time to get it up to speed. But more importantly, if it did get hit by another vehicle, it’s more likely that the garbage truck would take least amount of damage and or get moved.

    It smells. Nearly no one is gonna want to be around it nor hit it. So it’s a natural deterrent.

    I’ll throw in that it’s way faster for the workers to come and go from the back, than it would be for them to load into the truck near the front every time (or nearly every time).

    And another thing…

    Fuck you. That’s why. lolol

    edit: grammar





  • That’s the act now and think about it later, kinda thing. Most of us were trained as early as the age of 2 to 16 to not do that. But some forget the lesson or were never taught the lesson to begin with. Sad but true.

    Although, there is a deceiving reason to do it. I couldn’t decide on one term that I’ve heard more than the other, so I’ll share them all.

    • Rage farming - deliberately creating outrage content for engagement

    • Performative activism - actions done more for visibility than impact

    • The attention economy - where virality itself has monetary value

    Another that fits well is, Outrage profit.

    This kind of act isn’t as bad if you were gonna throw your toilet away anyway. And if you got enough people to watch it on YT or now TikTok, you could in theory, make enough or more to cover the cost of the item you destroyed. Rage bait is a chronic issue online. And sadly, I spent many years exposing myself to it and not realizing that most of it was an act or the post and/or poster was orchestrating it for their interests.
