      Yeah, I called them and left a message asking them to do something about it.

    Personally wondering if that qualifies as “littering” or “dumping”.

    1. admin August 16, 2010 at 5:19 pm

      I think a little from column A and a little from column B. How do people get to be so trashy!?

        I honestly don’t know. Ugh.

      “littering” is improperly disposing of garbage, that is, household garbage that you can put into curbside containers without a special notice.

      “dumping” is improperly disposing of non-household garbage, such as mattresses, TeeVees, refrigerators, paint, etc. Dumping generates a larger fine.

      That might free some evil mattress spirits!

    If it wasn’t such a pain to move I’d be tempted to go put it in front of their door. I can’t believe some people.

      Not to mention I wouldn’t want to touch the thing with a 10-foot pole

        That’s a damn good point. It’s been outside growing mold for HOW long now? :shudder:

      These people leave their garbage-bagged trash sitting outside their door for days, I don’t know that having the mattress moved outside their door would motivate them to do anything about it.

        It would’ve only been good if you could have balanced it juuuuuust right so it would fall into their apartment when they opened the door.

        1. admin August 17, 2010 at 4:21 pm

          hahahaha that would have been epic.

    Hey, new guest bed, with a beautiful view of the stars!

    1. admin August 17, 2010 at 3:44 am

      It could have been, if I hadn’t called management today and bitched about it. It’s gone now!

      1. hildeaux August 17, 2010 at 3:47 am

        I would have kept it just to taunt the neighbors. IT’S MY MATTRESS NOW, BITCH

          I am motivated by spite, but that seems like more effort than I’m willing to expend.

    Wow, urban erosion at work…

    A few feet farther that way and there wouldn’t have been a problem…

    Think of all the woodland nests that could pad!

    I mean, we scuttle ships to create reefs but do we throw mattresses into the woods … noooooooo…

    1. admin August 17, 2010 at 3:44 am

      Yeaaaah I don’t know that mattresses in the woods is a sound environmental idea.

    be careful that it doesn’t try to move in with you.

    1. admin August 17, 2010 at 3:43 am

      I locked and barricaded my door so this wouldn’t happen!

    WTF? Why are people so dirty disgusting??

    1. admin August 17, 2010 at 3:43 am

      I don’t know. Laziness?

    1. admin August 17, 2010 at 4:22 pm

      That’s why I had NO intentions of touching it.
