Never mind the missing trashcan — it’s the stolen trash that’s really bugging you, isn’t it?

Okay, first, how sad do you have to be to steal a trashcan. Second, how INCREDIBLY pathetic do you have to be to TAKE THE GARBAGE, TOO?!

Frankly, I lean toward the explanation in the previous thread: the spooks are planning to use your discarded receipts and coffee grounds and unshredded credit card solicitations to prove you’re part of a vast international conspiracy to overthrow democracy as we know it. And you aren’t even Jewish! (I’ll let you know when and if you’re ever eligible to join our conspiracy.)
Actually, the much more likely explanation is that an overeager or inexperienced trash handler accidentally threw the whole thing in the back of the truck and couldn’t retrieve it before it got crushed.

We don’t have a trash handler. We have to carry it to the dumpster ourselves.
I have played out every theory I can think of, and I got nothing.
