#Human Psychology
Ohhhh, the tranquil bliss of a Monday morning. The sunshine peeks through your imperfectly closed blinds, gently awakening your senses. Birds serenade you as you transition from Dreamland to the inevitable drudgery of reality. Only then, the harsh trill pierces through the orchestral melody of the avian choir. Brakes.
A colosseum of panic rises in your chest. It can't be. Not today. The heart-pounding symphony of waste management's arrival on your street reverberates through your otherwise peaceful homestead. You've forgotten, haven’t you? Oh, the humanity! How did this tragedy transpire?
The absolute heart-stopping horror of forgetting to roll out the trash bins. It's the most severe first-world problem one can think of, on par with such cataclysmic events as one's favorite Netflix show being suddenly removed, or the Wi-Fi dropping out in the middle of a significant Zoom call.
And so, you ask yourself, staring into the abyss of the overflowing trash bins, how did it come to this? Well, my friend, that's probably where you took your first misstep: actually trusting yourself to remember something like this.
A genius idea, really. Leave the weekly visitation of waste management to the ephemeral sketch of your memory. Excellent. What could possibly go wrong? It's not like you also have kids, pets, jobs, and the existential dread of, well, existence to juggle.
But oh, the ordeal is far from over. The initial wave of panic slowly gives way to an onslaught of regret. Gut-wrenching, remorse-riddled episodes of 'woulda, coulda, shoulda' dance around your already fifty shades of grey matter.
The regret is soon replaced with a dash of grief and sorrow. After all, you now have to live with the guilt of these neglected, bulging trash cans, now a stinking monument to your forgetfulness. A week-long organic reminder of your failure to put rubber to road.
But wait, there's more! Horror dawns when you recognize you have one, just ONE small bin for landfill trash that needs to last another week. Against your domestic waste generation capacity, it’s akin to bringing a rubber ducky to the Titanic.
Then, desperation creeps in. You contemplate, can the neighbors help? Ah, but does the risk of social interaction outweigh the suffering of living with Mount Trashmore in your garage? It's a tough call.
In the end, you sit amidst your forgotten chores, contemplating the meaning of life, the universe, and everything in it. When even Douglas Adams's '42' can't offer solace, you resign to your fate—never trust your brain for something as important as trash day, invest in a reminder app already, you archaic time-warrior!
Ah, the beautiful dance of dread, regret, grief, horror, desperation, and existential crisis performed on the grand stage of daily life. All because you forgot to put out the bins on trash day. Who knew adulting could be this thrilling?

How could someone forget such a simple task? It's not like it's hard to remember to put the bins out!

I'm so glad the garbage truck drivers are so understanding. It's nice to know that if we forget, they're still willing to help us out.

Putting out the bins might be a simple task, but it takes some effort! Everyone should be sure to make the extra effort for the garbage truck drivers.

If you forget to put the bins out, you should have to face the consequences. That's the only way people will learn to remember!

The best way to avoid the dread of trash day is to make sure you remember to put the bins out the night before!

We should all be thankful for the garbage truck drivers, and do our part to make trash day easier for them!

Is this a conspiracy?

Setting an alarm or writing yourself a reminder can help you remember the simple task of putting out the bins!
