trash
We sit down with the environmentally conscious Gomihiroi Samurai to find out what they’re really about.
Hopefully it will help people realize they’re not supposed to throw trash in recycling bins.
A video of a man trying to flee the scene after illegal trash dumping has the Japanese web cackling in schadenfreude.

The Internet rejoices at this new, potent meme fodder: trash bags that declare its contents have no other recourse than to be burnt to a crisp.
“I don’t love my crush anymore, but I want someone else to give them their love,” says message on Kyoto container.
Litterbug smokers aren’t so eager to brawl once they find out they’re picking a fight with a guy who beats people up for a living.
Living in a cramped Japanese home means living close to your trash, but there’s an easy way to make the situation easier on your nose.
