I unironically want them. No more plastic bags where I live, so I’m running on reserve. I only have a few years stockpile left.
I have the new plastic bags, here. The ones that are supposed to replace the old ones, but are just THICC plastic and cost $0.10-$0.50 each. You’d think I’d go “oh wow, more robust, is better!” But it feels so much less guilt free and so not only do I not get them as often, but don’t use them because it would be wasteful if I did use them, and they’re still a shitty “disposable” plastic bag and not trustworthy for important stuff.
Yeah it’s interesting to see it all change. Ups and downs.
People don’t use them as trash bags for small trash cans?
well we did until they made us buy a heavier duty product that takes way more resources to get inside my house
What horrible 19th century plague do you think the subject of this painting was dying of?
Unfortunately, Wikipedia (French) doesn’t provide any information regarding the illness the (already 2 hours dead) woman had been suffering of. If she didn’t die from a 17th century disease, it could also be a post partum death.
Tuberculosis
If they were checked for holes first, that’s a useful collection.
we also have to pull the local supermarket ones out and use them first, because they’re made of a different plastic that turns to flakes and powder after a year or two.
I live life on the edge, I don’t check for holes before I pick up the dog doo
Does she have any ziplocks? That’s where the real value is.
2 is 1, 1 is none.
There should be 2 plastic bags of plastic bags. 1 to hold clean food safe bags, the other to hold non clean bags to line the garbage baskets.
“They were never used as I kept forgetting them at home, so to my great-grandchildren I leave this mountain of semi-decomposed disposable bags I never threw away just in case”
Wait, then what’s she going to use for her coffin?
I upgraded my parent bag to a box, ha
Oh hell yeah! They don’t make those anymore!
The reusable bags mandated in my country are now just even more wasteful disposable bags… Especially when they’re made out of this plastic that goes brittle and dry rots over time. Eventually the bag can’t hold anything without ripping so it needs to be thrown out. Sometimes in less than a year…
