I have the day off and I'm supposed to be writing my assignment. Instead, I've been wasting my time on Facebook getting involved in discussions that involve me rewriting everything about 14 times in an attempt to avoid them tipping over into arguments. I have also hopefully helped bring some people new perspectives and options on FOGO bins, such is the exciting life I lead 🤣
Um, what is a FOGO bin?
Fear Of Growing Out...
...nah, it's Food Organics and Garden Organics. Council green bin
The food and organic waste bin (green lid).
That makes sense - I was flashing on FOMO etc and wondered what Fear Of Going Out had to do with bins.
Given we only have fortnightly collections I would think Fear Of Going Off bins would also be an accurate description, as the smell of food scraps sitting in bins that long is a major concern of residents here 😁
