Hey you! Yea, you on 35th Street who casually dropped your napkins. And you, Mr. Crush-your-can-and-leave-it-on-the-subway-guy!

Do you know what you’re actually doing?

Did you know…

“Litter can end up in rivers and canals, polluting the water supply.”

“Paper cups and beverage cans can hold rainwater, providing breeding locations for mosquitoes - which have been known to cause disease like the West Nile Virus.”

“It is also a road hazard and can occasionally contribute to accidents.”

This is New York City, man. Manhattan, The Big Apple.
No one wants to see it littered with a bunch of garbage.

FYI – your careless act of indifference did not go unnoticed. I am silently (ok, maybe not so silently) waiting for karma (the environment’s super BFF) to do its thing.

Should you slip and fall by way of a discarded banana peel, or forget to mind the gap on the train and stub your toe… this will be natures way of saying “right back atcha”.

Does littering make you just as mad? Help out by answering these Littering questions on WikiAnswers, and let’s spread the message that it is not ok!

I used to hate St. Patrick’s Day as a child. I was always so scared of the boys on the school playground who didn’t really care whether or not the girls were wearing green… we all got pinched. All day long. We could have dressed as asparagus stalks and they’d still have tormented us with pinches.

I’m not bitter.

It did get better though. Once I got to university, the holiday turned into an excuse to drink and dance and try to speak with an Irish accent. No one really pinched anymore. And now I’m a few years out of university and we still drink and dance and try to speak with Irish accents…responsibly, of course.

Doesn’t it seem funny that people outside Ireland celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with such vigor? Where did the holiday originate and why/how has it become such an international affair!? Thanks to WikiAnswers, I wonder no more!

At Answers Corp, we believe there is nothing wrong with brightening up a winter’s day with a little color… And by color, we mean the entire office wearing the team colors. Can you guess what they are?

Less like color war, more like color coexistence…
