About Kipple, Humanity's Waste and Blots on the Landscape

Philip K Dick coined the term 'kibble' in "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep". It was defined as follows:

"Kipple is useless objects, like junk mail or match folders after you use the last match or gum wrappers of yesterday's homeopape. When nobody's around, kipple reproduces itself. For instance, if you go to bed leaving any kipple around your apartment, when you wake up the next morning there's twice as much of it. It always gets more and more...There's the First Law of Kipple...kipple drives out nonkipple"

If you have photos of discarded beer cans, supermarket trolleys, sofas, armchairs, cars, electrical goods, washing machines, expensive artwork made from crap, conceptual art is particalarly welcome (think of Damien Hirst) or anything else which you consider kipple post them here. Photos of anything you considered kitsch or naff would also find a happy home in this group.

Also please feel free to post street drinking activity, urban problems photos etc.

Particularly welcome are things dumped in the most unimagined places, eg beauty spots and tourist attractions.

Property developments ruining the views and areas of beauty (blots on the landscape) will also be welcome.
