This is a question that has been weighing heavily on many people's minds for years, specially in the vicinity of Kingston upon Hull, UK. I think we need to discuss it in depth and arrive at a suitable conclusion....

Does rubbish have a purpose? If so, what is that purpose? If not, what do we do about it? And does Clinton Hammond care? These are things we all should devote at least some time to fully understanding.

So let's get to it.

Well, that's one vehement opinion expressed. It's a start, I guess.

Why, yes, it does, and it is no secret -- well known especially to those who are acculturated to the use of the word "rubbish". Its purpose is to distract individuals of low candlepower so they are not taxed with the burden of facing anything important, and can offer their various rubbish preoccupations as a substitute...

So...it's a sort of pacifier device then?

And speaking of rubbish, may we also include William Shatner's acting career and his writing ability?

Of course rubbish is important - what do you think archaeologists in 300 years are going to look for if not rubbish - it's by a communitys' rubbish that you know how they lived.

They'll get some pretty strange hypotheses with this lot though!

People's mad envy of Shatner's raging charisma leads them to say things like that, Art.

More importantly, did she have a penguin? Or did the penguin have her? I suggest you go to Google and search for "Penguin Lust". Click on the first link and read the entire shocking truth!

Well the topic is rubbish and it's keeping me from blowdrying my hair so I guess that's a purpose...not much of one but a purpose nevertheless.

my short attention span will not allow me to comment further....hairdryer is beckoning.

Since all life on Earth can trace its origins to a romantic picnic and its steamy aftermath held on a piece of then-barren rock by two Arfidnis from out near Altair, yes, rubbish does indeed have a purpose.

Sated from the clutching tentacles of lust, the Arfidnis never cleaned up either their trash or their used contraceptives.

Welcome, Life, to Earth.

Great, great! We're starting to unearth some really good stuff here. It appears that rubbish has many purposes. What puzzles me is that we have not yet heard from jOhn from Hull on this.

These days those who are environmentally aware try to ensure they recycle as much rubbish as possible.

Clearly The Mudcat is a 'Green' site!

Rubbish indeed serves a purpose. Just ask jOhn.

I heard today that Little Hawk was arrested for transporting trained seals over a State line for immoral porpoises. Any truth to that, or is it rubbish?

Ease up on William Shatner. Envy becomes you not!

It was penguins, not seals. If you want a little spice in your life, cohabitate with penguins.

Of course rubbish has a purpose. The purpose is to encourage the unselective to buy THIS product.
At that time it is called 'Packaging' and 'point of sale material.'
Just sometimes it is to stop greeblies getting into your butter.

Guest at 11.29am, you are obviously here often enough to know jOhn, so why don't you join?
