So I went to the fridge, poured one, and emptied the pitcher. Time to make more tea.
I go to my family tea bag container and it is empty.

I go to the recyclable trash can to throw it away. That trash can is completely (over)filled.
I remove the plastic bag, and tie it up, then take it out to the trash can.

All I wanted was a fucking piece of gum
