The County has placed a garbage can down at the end of our hollow, in front of my home. It is attracting partiers who stay for hours, laughing and hollering at each other. I called the County and asked them to remove the can, but they said it helps their crews keep the area free of trash. I explained that the garbage can is making the problem worse, but they won't listen. Now that I have identified myself to County officials, how do I get rid of this garbage can?
>>

"your hollow"

looks like a public street, cletus
>>
>>2890476
Yes it is a County road. But most don't have garbage cans at the end.
>>
Keep filling it with human waste
>>
>>2890476
So are the streets in Detroit but that doesn't make it a good idea to go there if you're an outsider.
>>
seriously damage the garbage can and if they ask you about it, blame the partiers you warned them about.
>>
HEY FELLAS
GOING TO HAVE A RAGER TONIGHT
DRINKS, SMOKES, WOMEN
THE USUAL PLACE
YEA AT THE GARBAGE CAN AGAIN
BE THERE OR BE SQUARE
>>
>>2890470
Shut up and collect the aluminum cans out of it. Consider yourself fortunate.
>>
>>2890470
>Now that I have identified myself to County officials
Why would you do that? Just take care of the problem yourself, never get the authorities involved.
>>
>>2890499
It's usually two or three people and they sit in their car or sit on the tailgate, or sometimes stand around.
>>
>>2890509
have you tried walking up to them?
>>
>>2890512
And saying what, stop drinking beer?
>>
>>2890517
just be yourself
should be enough to run them off
>>
Lol the guys that were bothering >>2882616 have found a new hangout.
>>
>>2890542
But that guy lives in a city and that kind of stuff is expected.
>>
>>2890470
Fill the can with large rocks and chunks of concrete.
>>
>>2890470
dint we just have this thread?

I am a true believer in... Feces. I have logically solved several /diy/ issues recently with feces. On lid, on ground surrounding bastard can, log also gets poop maybe some in the trees. Poop fountain is easiest but not not the most effective due to its susceptibility to UV and water. What you really want is a heavy, greasy, meat turd. Something spreadable. Bro I can help you with this but only if you let me. I have ideas for breeding mosquito armies and scabies jello.
>>
>>2890517
you could totally pop them for drinking and driving. problem solves itself
>>
walking down there and saying HEY FELLAS WHAT'S GOING ON would probably solve the problem too. but that involves talking to people outside and that's scary.
>>
>>2890590
That would make them feel comfortable and encourage them to return.
>>
>>2890590
No. You don't talk to them. I have several ways to solve this all of them involve poop or fake poop. Fake poop will require at least a windows computer.
>>
>>2890594
i didn't think i needed to write out a whole script - i was operating under the assumption that you'd know how to have a conversation with a human.

the point is, you walk up friendly, but make it clear that someone lives there and they're bothering you. depending on how it goes, you get less friendly. if they're real shitbags and it's still not working, you threaten the cops on them.

THEN you get into the more creative solutions.

PHYSICAL PRESENCE
FRIENDLY CONVERSATION
LESS FRIENDLY CONVERSATION ("I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A PROBLEM HERE")
COPS or CREATIVE SOLUTIONS (depending on how dumb you are)

a drop of skunk musk around the garbage can.
>>
>>2890600
That will work. You will need gimp or photoshop, feces smeared condom and material (see protip) to maintain erection during photo shoot.
>protip: some people like keteamine.
Keep me posted.
>>
>>2890499
FUCK YEAH! TRASHCAN PARTY!!!!
>>
>>2890470
>it helps their crews keep the area free of trash.
This is the core issue. You let this problem fester and the County is sick of dealing with it, and you.
>>
>>2890470
>Now that I have identified myself to County officials, how do I get rid of this garbage can?
Take it and get rid of it. Unless they can prove that you took it, they can do nothing. The fact that you called and asked them to take it away is not proof that you took it if it were to go missing. They
ll probably just put down another one though.

Put in a sign that says "gay hangout spot".
>>
>>2890876
>Put in a sign that says "gay hangout spot".
Paint the trashcan like a rainbow flag and write "faggot trash only"
>>
>>2890885
the rainbow thing might actually work

>It is attracting partiers
>>
>>2890470
The Garbage can?
attracts partiers?
are you an idiot?
>>
>>2890599
you're not from this planet are you?
>>
>>2890910
why would that make him the idiot. Wouldn't the partiers be the idiots?
>>
>>2890499
>>2890660
>>2890906
>>2890910
Every community has people looking for a place to party where they won't get hassled. In OP's county the burden falls on him because he's so passive about it.
>>
>>2890913
because I highly doubt the partiers are there because of the trash can. they just happened to show up there after the trash can did. but using mongoloid logic, OP just made shit up in his head.
>>
>>2890911
why, because i'm not a raging pussy? I'm not from Planet Retard, if that's what you're asking. this new zoomer planet where going outside and having a conversation is too scawwy.

it's a couple of guys drinking beers on a backroad. if i was sitting there drinking a beer, or smoking some weed, and someone who lived there started making their presence known, i'd move the fuck on. like this guy said >>2890917, they're only fucking around there because OP is too big of a pussy to show his face.
>>
>>2890940
What does bravery have to do with confronting drunk hillbillies? That's not brave, just stupid.
>>
>>2890990
jesus
>>
>>2890470
This is also how homeless shelters work
>>
>>2890470
put up a sign that says smile, youre on camera -(your local police department).

problem solved.
>>
>>2890470
Approach them wearing only a speedo and rubber boots. Carry a gallon jug of cheap whisky.
>>
>>2890917
The danger with these passive types is that they will suddenly snap. The county shouldn't be provoking this guy.
>>
>>2891103
tough anti-city slicker country boys when they get just a tiny taste of the city
in this case, a single trash can
AHHHHH I'M GOING INSAAAAAAAANE
>>
>>2891103
How is this a provocation?
>>
>>2891123
>people drinking and yelling in front of your home at all hours
>County won't enforce public drinking laws
>County won't enforce open container laws
>County won't enforce DUI laws
Instead, the County slaps a garbage can in front of your home to collect the empties.
>>
>>2891139
none of this happened though
>>
this is clearly a park. a no parking sign and giant ass fence that serves no purpose - sure. kys OP or make friends with the partiers.

there could be partiers here ...

>how do I get rid of this garbage can?
to answer your question: battery powered angle grinder. you now have a free garbage can
but also what kind of actual subhumans think "hey a garbage can, time to party!"
>>
>>2891269
>giant ass fence that serves no purpose
It's a guard rail at the end of our lane the stops cars from driving into Johnson Creek.
>>
>>2891355
>Johnson Creek.
Meet me at the Dick Creek trash receptacle for a sick-ass party bro!

There's always a party spot. There's one in my county called "Beer Can Flats."
>>
>>2890476
>looks like a public street
A public garbage can?
Then use it. Dispose of 40 gallons of wet concrete.
>>
>>2890470
We had a similar problem in front of the apartment building I live in. A couple of young guys leaning against their car and drinking beer talking loudly until 2 or 3AM. Of course they couldn't park down the block in front of their own building, but I digress.

A note left on the car window asking them to cease. They laughed and continued late night drinking and chat.

2nd note expressed disappointment at their disregard, warned if it continued physical harm would come to the vehicle. That REALLY got them going (as expected. Assholes are predictable) so they started yelling out obscenities and threats and started throwing beer cans onto our property. Cops called, they were warned. Behaviours temporarily abandoned. A few weeks later they're back again.

Final straw, they were warned to play nice so they knew the consequences. Someone knew a guy who knows a guy etc... (you know how it goes) who brought their drone. Drone flier likes to drop little baggies full of fermented piss on druggies, thieves, and dealers for fun in my community. He gets a call. He parks a few blocks over. Drops a piss-baggie on one guy. Much hilarity for residents ensues. A note left on car says more to come with gradual escalation.

Car never parks there again. Bad behaviour solved (for now). Drone owner disappointed being denied more fun.
>>
Go party with them, but "act" (be yourself) like a massive autist who's unbearable to be around and say how much you want to see them next time. Instead of beers, drink from a plastic jug of water and yell "TIME FOR A REFILL" before naruto running back into your house to get more
>>
>>2890470
If you can't beat em, join em. Show up nude in a gas mask and army boots covered in excrement, see how long they last.
>>
>>2891587
>drink from a plastic jug of water
>REFILL
Don't do this, it will harm or kill you. Drink an American light beer and let the scumbag vagrants suck on their faggot microbrews.
>>
>>2890509
So it's just a few people hanging out and socializing? And you're trying to be a giant faggot and stop them from doing so? People like you are the reason society is so atomized and no one has a sense of community anymore. You aren't the only one who lives in the community, dumbass. Part of living in a community means having to put up with being occasionally inconvenienced by others. If you don't like it, then go live in a cave somewhere.
>>
>>2890470
just pick it up and toss it somewhere looks small like a bucket
>>
>>2890470
Holler's are only yers if you defend them. March down thar with grannies double, take theres beers and ifen ya must, theres lives.
>>
>>2891685
This is not how hollers work
retard
>>
>>2890499
for me it's the ever-present smell of dogshit and rotting food
>>
>>2890470
Have you thought about hiding in the trash can until they show up, then when everybody's good and settled jump out and ask them politely to leave? wear a suit or be naked for max intimidation.
>>
>>2890470
flatten it with your car so that it becomes a garbage can't
