    You know you cuss when you have to un-tie a plastic bag that's been knotted shut.

    Un-tie it simply by twisting one of the loss ends. Twist until it's stiff and push the end back through the knot.

    Ta-dah!!! :D

    it's usually much easier to just tear a hole in the bottom of the bag.

    Then you can't re-use it.

    I'm a bad hippie. I forget to take my canvas bags to the grocery store and I end up with plastic grocery bags.

    The hippies at my local grocery look at me with disgust when I demand plastic bags. It's an extremely 'hip' store and they try to push their precious paper bags, and their reusable canvass alternatives.

    Try picking up dog shit with a giant paper bag.

    I was thinking something similar about scooping out the litter box. I'm not putting that in a canvas bag and re-using the bag. I guess I could buy paper lunch sacks...Do they still sell those? Actually, I'd need medium size paper bags...my big cat pees and the clumps are the size of soft balls.

    That's againt the law here and rightfully so.
    my little town just banned plastic bags at the grocery store. You have to bring your own bag or pay the 5 cents for a paper bag

    generally after fumbling with the knot I'll scream "FUCK YOU BAG!" Take my teeth and tear the bag open with my canine. Then I spit the left over plastic on the floor and ask "WHAT NOW BITCH?" finally I do a few fist pumps and enjoy my sons left over halloween candy.

    It is here too, plenty of morons still do it. You're only supposed to burn yard waste and forest refuse.

    One of my jobs was walking this little dachshund who shat at least 2 or 3 times EVERY walk. I would visit his owner for a couple of hours and walk him usually twice a visit. Anyway, I cannot imagine the hell our lives would have been if not for the trusty plastic grocery bags!

    I'm quite glad my backward city has never even considered banning plastic bags at the grocery store. Many people use them for all sorts of things. We sure do in my house. As wonderful as the eco-friendly paper bag may be considered, you'll never have to cut down a tree to make a plastic bag.

    Well, that's true. Although you do use fossil fuels both in the manufacturing procedure and as raw materials FOR the bag. And of course, they don't break down for thousands of years, are ingested by sea-going mammals who mistake them for cuttlefish, tangle up in the limbs of amphibians and are generally unfriendly to everything.

    There are alternative "plastic" bags-principally using corn starch or a derivative as the raw material- but they are expensive and not as strong.

    The real answer is a selective bacterium that eats ONLY the particular plastic in bags, but they aren't there yet.

    There's hemp plastic.

    Made with hemp oil in place of the petrolium. Honest-to-god plastic bag, and bio-degradable. Although I don't know how much they can manipulate the time to degrade, or what factors effect that time how much.

    Not in Australia, they're so paranoid about hemp that you need a Federal government license to grow hemp for rope or clothing.
