Does your sense of personal cleanliness always seem a little more “relaxed” than everyone else’s? Did you ever buy socks and underwear to avoid doing laundry? Have you ever shown up to work to find your desk cordoned off by crime scene tape? It’s possible you might be a garbage human. Take this quiz to find out.
[Clarifying paragraph (a “clarigraph”): When I say “garbage human,” that is in no way meant as disrespect to actual sanitation workers, who are doing the very respectable (and odious) job of dealing with our trash. Nor am I referring to one’s morality—this isn’t about being “human garbage,” it’s just about physicality.]

Scoring
If you’ve answered “C” to two or more of these questions, face it: you’re a little garbage-y. That’s not necessarily terrible, though. On the plus side, your “c’est la vie” attitude is commendable and at least it doesn’t take you an hour to get out of the house every day (when you can locate the door).
On the not-plus side, you’re kind of gross and your mother would be embarrassed because no way did she raise you like this. If you answered “C” to more than four or five of these, you will almost certainly die alone where no one will find you for at least a week. But there are worse things that could happen, right?
