As I was walking over to another building here on the college campus, I witnessed something that made me just stand and stare for a few moments as I felt my faith in humanity diminish just by the slightest bit. You know the feeling. Your brain's constantly looping through what you just saw, trying to comprehend and perhaps infer some kind of logical reasoning for the act, but eventually you just give up and feel your heart sink just a little lower.
Anyway. I was passing by a shrubbery (ni!), when I saw a guy hurl his empty Pepsi cup into said shrubbery and keep walking. Now, what got me was not the act, but the utter "I don't give a rat's <censored>" demeanor in which he threw the cup, as well as the fact that he did so when there were at least thirty people milling about between classes.
That's when the staring commenced. I stared at the cup. I stared at his back. I contemplated calling him on it, seeing as there was a trash can TEN METERS AWAY and in his direct path of travel. I decided against it, as I didn't want to piss the guy off (he looked rather irritated as it was).
So, muttering to myself, I picked it up and disposed of it properly.
Honestly. Some people...
