"Why is Union Street always covered in garbage," asks a poster on the Brooklynian message boards, and this being Park Slope, the discussion veers into the greater meaning of it all ("more garbage has been blowing in park slope streets lately, and i wonder what it signifies...."), with one particularly spirited take: "If the answer was more cans then any level of garbage output could be satisfyingly solved with more and more cans. That is until the block is simply a garbage can itself - one long tin bin where any passerby with a hot coffee hand protector, plastic bag, bottle of water, or used condom can dispose of his/her refuse."
