| Mylar confetti litter in my yard |
It's not a popular thing to criticize the "public" [sic] schools. No matter what they do. So, I generally don't (too much), especially considering my family are all fans of the abomination.
The anti-educational agenda is the big objection I have to government schooling, but it's far from the only one.
Last week the school across the street from me had a "fun day" for the inmates. They tried to launch Mentos and Diet Coke rockets, and they smashed confetti eggs over each other's heads.
Did I mention that this kinderprison is directly across a small street from my house?
Guess what has been blowing into my yard every day since then, being an eyesore. Mylar confetti. Yay. The picture above has 7 or 8 pieces of the stuff in it, although it's hard to see in the photo (it's all the light spots). I didn't move any for the picture to concentrate them in one spot.
Most of the pieces are an inch and a half or so across. Not tiny, but small enough they are hard to pick up, and so numerous it's probably pointless to try. I wish they were rapidly degradable.
If I went to the school grounds and intentionally littered this badly, do you think I wouldn't face consequences?
Today was windy enough it damaged my new shingles (grrr!!) so maybe some of the trash blew away while new trash blew into the yard from the seemingly endless reservoir across the street.
I suppose I could claim it's "UFO crash debris" and cash in. That would at least make it worthwhile and amusing.
