Unpicked-up Garbage

....Wow, a MOM posted this. How ironic lol. I have seen this in 2 towns. One, it was by the Nuclear Power Plant around Parking Lots, and the other, a whole big YARD was designed with garbage including the debris, broken Lazer Gun, Piece of Crap Car, Tire Fire, Broken-Down Washer/Drier, etc.

    I've been keeping a bit if the garbage. I have the toxic barrels around the side I the plant, and other bits and pieces I have placed in gaps around the town.

    Decoration. There is a finite number of each piece of debris. You'd hate to clean them all and one day spark an idea of something you could have done with them.

    Thanks for the replies. I figured it was just decoration, but just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything (like certain garbage giving you % increase on jobs or something).

    Also, I don't see how it's ironic that a mom posted this (unless its cuz I'm always cleaning everything anyways, lol). It's not like I'm 50 or something, I'm 27 and my son is almost 3. He plays with my old iPhone 3GS now that I got my 5 and he just likes to tap things in the town and I'll usually go in after him and fix it up (made him his own town so he would stop spending my money and donuts in mine, lol).

    Anyways... Thanks again guys!

    I have been in quite a few other towns now where the game-player has, instead of using Homer's and Lisa's "Clean Up Springfield" mission to clean up the garbage in new squares of land, they have moved all the garbage to the edge of town and lined it up nicely (and even organized it by type in some cases). Is there a reason for this (other than laziness)? Am I missing something?
    Thanks!

    PS. I am maxed out on friends, but please add my son to your game: Logan022310. Thnx!


    should it not be Logan224 .. List in order? LOL

    My son is Logan (after Wolverine, seriously. Lol) and his birthday is Feb 23/10. LogansMommy is the name I usually use but it was taken and LogansMommy0223 was too long for the 12 character limit, hence LogansMom223. And for my son's I just used his name and birthday, hence Logan022310.

    My name was taken, which is kind of predictable I guess, but so were all my other pseudonyms somehow, even though I know it's impossible that anyone else has them. I hate having 'random name and number' usernames, but I just went ahead and put the golden ratio after my name. I wish I was able to change it to something else as I'm sure it was a glitch that I couldn't use my others, but there we go.

    There is sometimes donuts hidden in the trash, so I always get it cleaned up.

    The first two letters of my 4 daughters names , Adele, Ruth, Rachel and Louise makes up adruralo. No 52 is a random number.

    I think you can go to the Origin site, login, and change your name. There is a person in my friends list who changed their name. I've also read about someone doing it on here, but then having complications, though it was probably user error. i'm in the same boat. All of the names I normally use were taken, so I just typed the main one backwards.
