Have you checked your trunk for extra junk?

I have to get my hands dirty and make four trips every collection day, and he never does. In his favor, he doesn't have any fucking windchimes, so I'm can let this go as just something weird that he does.

So my question is this -- how many of you would find this slightly annoying, and why?
That would annoy me to no fucking end. But, what can you do? If he's otherwise a good neighbor, let it go. You don't want to start a war over something stupid, especially if it doesn't really affect you.
