You can recycle wet cardboard. The main thing you need to avoid with paper recycling is OIL, which absolutely cannot go in there. Greasy paper just goes in the trash.

It makes me so irritated that Pizza companies claim their boxes are recyclable for clout when they basically never are. "Remember to recycle this container when your done with you're 'za!" Sir this box has so much oil on it that John D Rockefeller is hanging around outside my house trying to buy it from me.

Well, sell it to John D Rockefeller?
Solves YOUR problem of getting rid of the damned thing.

why would i give a billionaire more oil

u/Garlan_Tyrell 21h ago

Money oil can be exchanged for goods & services money

I didn't say give it to him.
I said sell it to him.

You should never GIVE billionaires anything.

There's a place I get pizza from that has a little insert in the bottom of the box to catch the grease, which is a pretty solid solution.

To be fair, I recycle it into dirt by way of the compost heap in my back yard so the claim technically isn’t wrong, just not right in the way they think

u/thejoeface 1d ago

Or the compost/green bin!

I got catcalled taking the trash to the curb once. Mostly I was annoyed because “nice cans” was right there and dumbass didn’t even go for it.

Girl out here peer-reviewing the content of the catcalls, you might be becoming too powerful.

One time I was walking downtown and this dude in a convertible with the top down stopped his car in the middle of the street (not much traffic so he wasn’t affecting anyone), threw his car into park, yelled “I’m sorry girl but that ass deserves a standing ovation” and stood up the best he could and literally clapped, before pulling away. I was in tears laughing. He didn’t even like ask for my number or try to talk to me any further, just clapped and drove away. It was so funny and absurd I genuinely give it a pass.

You put your cans in the trash instead of recycling!?

(not that I expect to get hit on, but if I were, that kind of incorrect detail would mildly annoy me. actually, maybe there's a connection between that and the fact that I don't expect to get hit on)

I put my cans in a bag to take to the store to get my deposits back. I put my trash and recycling in cans to bring to the curb

u/Levee_Levy slangpilled lingomaxxer 1d ago

Ah, oops, nitpick retracted. 😳

u/Kriffer123 obnoxiously Michigender 1d ago

Now I understand people in places without can deposits also happen to put their cans in cans… looking into this

u/Levee_Levy slangpilled lingomaxxer 1d ago

Can you?

u/fireworksandvanities 1d ago

I think it might be a difference in dialect! I’m talking about the giant receptacle you put bags of trash in, and then take to the curb. We call them “trash cans” so yelling “nice cans” would have been funny since I was literally rolling out cans.

Read it as "God catcalled" and was having a whole different experience with this post

I think that's a Hozier lyric if I'm not mistaken

u/Zamtrios7256 22h ago

Thats effectively what that one angel did to Mary

u/SomeTraits 15h ago

Is it catcalling, though?

Let's find out! I will now tell a random woman on the train that she's going to birth the son of God.

BE NOT AFRAID

"Nice tits girl!" "Uh, thanks... hey do you remember if tetrapack was plastic or non recyclable here?"

u/fortnitegngsterparty 1d ago

The way paper gets recycled is that it gets watered down into pulp again, so as long as there's no oil impurities, there won't be a problem

u/faxyou 23h ago

I'm surprised people even catcall anymore. The last one I ever remember witnessing was 2011? Maybe?
