We got the same system, so it isn't really an issue here either. Was mainly another reason alongside with public drunks being extremely annoying when you're sober. However it can often look really awful the morning after a larger party in a park. Not only beer cans, but tons of other trash as well.Amaror said:kinda makes sense, we just don't really have a problem here in germany with bottles or stuff lying around, but i think the reason for that may be that we have, äh, lets call it a deposit on most bottles.
it means you pay a few cents more when you buy the drink, but get it back when you return the empty bottle.
Now most drunk people don't do that, but there are quite a few homeless people that earn quite a bit of money just collecting those bottles and returning them. so that way parks and stuff stays relatively clean.
Awww, I have two of my own, they're not illegal in New York, and they're very precious. Just can't breed them. Mine are pretty dumb though. They don't sleep in a cage at night and their newest trick is turning on my vacuum cleaner at 4 am and sucking themselves into the nozzle. ><Xcell935 said:Screw weed, you guys are insane.

Yeah, I got mine when I went to go pick up one (A black one) and they had a tiny pre-mature pure white one they were going to put down because of how small she was and she was being bullied. So I got her for free. Now she's friggin huge and a pain in my ass. I forgot they were illegal in other areas though, what a shame. I suppose its because of their digging though. They're supposed to be good mousers from what I've heard! Use that excuse! Just pour dozens of mice into your home.Xcell935 said:Oh good lord I'm going to have a heart attack from pure cuteness...SaetonChapelle said:Awww, I have two of my own, they're not illegal in New York, and they're very precious.

Uh with home owners associations don't you knowingly sign a contract when you purchase the house that says you will abide by the terms of the home owners' association? You may not like that they have a say in it, but your neighbours might not want to have to look at a golf course. I remember a story a while back about a guy who wanted to pave his backyard with concrete and it got blocked. If it is a big deal wouldn't the ideal thing have been to buy a house in an area with no home owners association?mysecondlife said:Home owners associations: group of massive pricks telling you how your house should look like or they sue.
For example, my father wanted to build a practice golf range in his backyard. HOA bitched about it because they think they have the right to. I personally disagree with my father because I hate having a practice golf range taking up most of the backyard, but it should be between me and him. I don't want some stupid pricks thinking they have say in this.
I once had a conversation with one of them and gosh, I wish I had a free pass for murder.
So to summarize, having things in my backyard as long as people think its reasonable. (oh for goodness sake, this sounds ridiculous).
You know, I was going to say there's nothing I'd change, but yeah, this. I'd love to have a nice scotch by the sea.Drummodino said:I wouldn't mind being able to drink in public. I wouldn't go around drunk with a bottle of Jim Beam in hand mind you, but it would be nice to be able to have a beer on a park bench when I take my dogs for a run around.
