A good few years ago then gf (now wife) and I took a load of paper and card to the tip for recycling. I came back from doing the glass to her furiously going through the magazines and ripping out random pages before ditching them. Then she says
“I mean, how are we meant to judge if its ok to be recycled or not – they are not all one colour!”
Looked at her quizzically “what the hell are you talking about”?
She points to a sign “It says No Yellow Pages!”
I had to pick myself off the floor
The best bit was after a year of two of telling this story to friends, we’d start going to dinner at peoples houses and people we’d never met would start to tell us about this daft friend of a friend who’d ripped out the yellow pages! Brilliant – she got so squirm all over again!
If true you win the prize.
