Miguel Sanchez Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I'm currently eating a pot of Graham's brand yoghurt whose label proudly tells me the packing is even greener! because it uses less plastic than a standard pot. It's a 450g tub and it doesn't have a lid. The planet's fucking dead anyway, stop mildly inconveniencing me when I'm surrounded by neighbours who put paddling pools and old bed frames in the recycling bins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
