I have one plastic bag that is full of other, crumpled plastic bags.

You would not believe how many more bags you can fit in that one bag if you fold them, rather than crumple them!

Folding plastic bags seems annoying though.

Might you be Arab by any chance? If not you can probably get citizenship somewhere.

I feel like that was a universal experience back in the days of bags

My kitchen has a tiny "cabinet" near the sink that's about 5 inches wide and was put there just so the dimensions of the countertops would work. It's still the full depth of the under sink cabinet, just really skinny.

It is absolutely stuffed with bags.

I occasionally use them as trash bags for the bathroom when I remember, and can be bothered to go and get one.

Had to upvote for the ideal midwest pronunciation of "bag"

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 1 points 3 weeks ago
