Ridiculous city…

is ridiculous.  Now, there are a lot of things I could comment on here– encroachment of government, the surreality of being fined for one bottle, the irony of a guy who recycles so much being fined while on vacation…  but I’m just going to say that this reminds me of something:

“This stresses the importance of compliance, and not littering.” No shit, Sherlock…

Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of while reading this story was a post-apocalyptic game set in a dystopian future which is controlled by a nanny-state government led by slug-like aliens?

    Hell. They can have Philly at the rate it is going…

    Brings to mind another science fiction solution, though…

      Escape from Philly? Starring Kurt Russell, Sam Jackson and Val Kilmer? (Chuckle)
