I lived in Portland for six years, and got so used to multiple bins (food waste/compost, recyclables, and trash) that when I first moved back to California, where I lived the rest of my entire life, I spent the first few weeks confused as to how to throw my trash out because there was only one bin.
Pretty simple. Just dump everything in 1 until it overflows and if you have more leave it in your friends car or at the front of a store. Hope this helps!
I lived in Japan and one time we messed up the trash and the whole neighborhood brought our trash bag back to our porch and made us separate it. Seriously 8-10 adults at my door saying “DAME” and giving me the 🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️🙅🏼♀️ Japanese trash and recycling trucks won’t pick up the bags for the entire neighborhood if even just one is done incorrectly. 🥲

Shouldn't whether you like the show depend on whether you like the show? It seems lke you're giving up freedom if you automatically hate something just because someone else loves it.
Not quite accurate. Portland still has a lot of catching up to do with food waste bins. (I stayed at Couch9, a corporate apartment downtown in 2020 and there was no bin to be found.)
Hilarious and true. I feel so righteous when I recycle, then I read how so much of that is being dumped now, too. WTF? How do we win? Just give up and go PARTY on PLASTIC ISLAND! Quick, before all the honeybees are killed off! Now where's that lotto ticket I bought....

Small oversight there. They don't seem to have a bin for bins.
I tried googling to this scene for SO LONG. The bit at the beginning where they both have steering wheels is priceless
Real garbage trucks have two wheels.

I love the white carpet episode
It’s because they’re twins. Twin siblings -> twin steering wheels. Everyone gets one!

The only 3 things you need in life: clean air, fresh water, and good vibes 😎
The other 97% you can dump in the ocean :(
To be honest, i would probably replace “good vibes” with: F O O D

California sounds pretty confusing; how did you survive?

@@deltafox399j Pro Tip: Public parks are a great place to leave any kind of trash.

Periwinkle! Love it!!
FYI: there is a town in Japan where EVERYTHING is recycled. They have 20 + bins !
This may seem like a dumb question...but is the town really small or are the 20+ bins very large?
@@CaptainHamsterPants that IS a dumb question

That was sooo weird.
I love it.
This is how recycling actually is in Germany.
What, dump it in the ocean?
@@cougarsorwhat Pretty much. We really love separating our trash only for it all to be burned in the same furnace.
Yep, the Nazis were the first to start recycling. That should tell you something about this whole scam.
@@monkeyspanner8172 are you trying to say that the nazi party invented the idea of repurposing previously used objects?

lol the end part. Just saw an article where they dumped wind mill blades in a landfill, the irony.
The fact that they are twins yet pronounce the color yellow differently is so funny to me

But that 3% recycled makes some people feel a 100% better!

California banned gas powered lawnmowers, so I'm sure they must feel 1000% better.
