Lebanese Waste Management


In many countries, they turn their garbage into fertilizer, into fuel, into electricity and even into cash. But what do they know, these arrogant, snotty, godless foreigners? We Lebanese, the most intelligent people in the world, do things differently.

We don’t sort and divide our trash between recyclable and non-recyclable. That would be ktiir cliché. We sort and divide our trash between what should be dumped in the sea, what should be dumped in the mountains and what should be dumped in the valleys.

We are so brilliantly creative, we turn our trash into long lasting pollution. Poisoning the air, the water and the land.

Soon, we’ll produce so much poison, we’ll be able to export it and sell it all over the world. With the money, we will restart the economy, erase poverty, settle our national dept, fix the electricity and water, repair every single road there is, built a Skybar in every city, town and village, and ultimately save Lebanon.

Geniuses I tell you.
