Idk, but not saying anything when I saw someone litter right in front of a bin has me all twisted up. Maybe it's just me but it feels wrong.

Quiet litter-witness guilt club" is a bit much... it's just trash, not a crime.

My buddy just sighed and picked it up for them.

Totally get that twisted up feeling. I once just stared at the trash on the ground after the person walked away, like my glare would magically lift it into the bin. My confrontational skills are basically zero, so I just end up feeling guilty for being awkward. Guess we're both in the quiet litter-witness guilt club.

Karen_sanchez49, your litter story hits home. Last week I saw a guy drop a coffee cup, and I did the whole silent stare thing too. Then my dog decided to investigate and ended up knocking it over, spilling everywhere. I had to clean it up while the guy was still in sight, which was SUPER awkward. Sometimes the universe just adds insult to injury, you know?
