Naturally, a mere two weeks after I incite the rage of my fellow Somervillians and the Inter-net by confessing that I don't recycle...DWR basically tells me to eat it by introducing their set of four recycling bags that are both functional and attractive.
Besides the punchy colors, which "provide easy visual cues when separating cans from bottles from papers. A fourth bag can function as a compost holder." (Whoooa doggy. Now I'm composting? Where, in my car's trunk?) "Four interchangeable printed labels are included for use in the plastic window on the front of each bag."
Considering this retail development and last night's State of the Union, I might finally have to call it...literally, and contact my landlord about setting up a recycling station somewhere in the building.
No German sightings since the lone comrade went down in the kitchen sink (literally.)
Sigh...
Maybe I can just crawl into one of these stylish colorful bags and zipper myself away from the world instead?

Furthermore (on recycling)
I would suggest you first press your landlord on the Germans issue. I doubt your neighbors' dirty soup cans and empty beer bottles lying around (even if in stylish bags) would help that situation.
Recycling is for Chumps (and hungry Germans).

Recycling is for chumps.
If you must, recycle only paper.
Spit in the eye of our descendants and throw the rest out.
Cambridgidians be damned.
