WrathofSWhlttleKlop are you saying dusty doesn't 'pass'?!

I think mine will be blue and green, which have the advantage of at least being real words.

I think Dusty might pass better if he shaved his legs and at least try to wedge his size 11 feet into a slender pair of Converse.

He went to Paris recently to do a photoshoot with other bins.
As we all know, Paris is the epicentre of style and fashion.

Shake my little lid on the catwalk?

Oh Dusty, those huge feet. Grin

My DH has commented 'some bins would flip their lids if they saw this thread'.

WrathofSWhlttleKlop · 05/10/2019 10:57

Somebody once said to Dusty Bin that with his height, he could become a model.

Dusty thought to himself,
"Maybe, just maybe I could become a model"

And so he became a model.

Apparently, re Dusty's design:
'Sunderland's concept for the shows' original titles, which were shown on the original series, included the birth of the bin. The character came to life as YTV's chevron logo falls to earth after shooting up into the sky like a rocket above the studios, exploding in a dustbin standing by the studios stage door. The bin contained a clown's costume, parts of which become one with the bin, bringing it to life as the character Dusty Bin; part dustbin, part clown.

My local council were binphopbic. They would not touch green bins (garden waste and food waste) unless you paid them.
To make up for this literal violence they have now seen the error of their ways.
Obviously to hide their binphobia they have now given green bins extra privileges.
Green bins are now collected weekly.

I was just googling to find a pink bin and I found this.

ALL BINS MATTER.

Liverpool and Salford both have pink bins.

WrathofSWhlttleKlop · 05/10/2019 12:25

Dusty Bin; part dustbin, part clown.

Neither fully bin, nor fully clown.

Not to be confused with interbin which is a real thing.

Probably a bin during daylight hours then puts on clownface for the evening.
A bit like that Credit

HandsOffMyRights · 05/10/2019 12:37

The piece on Dusty's conception mentioned their birth (don't want to trigger them with misgendering).

I'm just wondering who assigned Dusty's gender (obviously there are multiple genders as we all know and respect Hmm)?

NotBadConsidering · 05/10/2019 12:39

Dusty Bin; part dustbin, part clown

I’m sorry, but you can’t just stick a red nose on and think you have the same lived experience of natal clowns. Dusty’s body structure is just all wrong. How can Dusty do a forward roll? Other clowns are just going to look at Dusty, having spent all their lives making balloon animals and squeezing themselves into ludicrously small cars and think it’s insulting Dusty thinks Dusty share that lived experience based on superficially applied clown face. We need to make the garbage receptacle community more accepting to gaudy decorations. Why can’t a bin be a little bit fancy and comical? Is there really anything wrong with that?

HandsOffMyRights · 05/10/2019 12:55

Dusty wants it all.

In this rare interview, Dusty wants to be called Dustin, yet goes on to explain that he'd play any part, regardless of age or sex.

Mate, it doesn't work that way, you can't just put on a costume (although Dusty at least acknowledges sex).

In 2008 Dusty was working with councils to promote green issues. Dusty would be a perfect figurehead for the Greens' Coventry area.

From now on my feBINism is transBINclusionary. One day the full rainbow community of bins will be able to celebrate their true selves and this thread will have played its part.

Are you kidding???

Where's the gold hoop earrings and pink trainers - everyone knows that's the internationally agreed code to identifying a ma'am !

We have transnumbered bins in our street. Neighbourhood Watch made us. I fear we are entirely unWoke.
