"Facing a trash crisis?". Does that mean Twapper will be back to give a bad place an even worse name?
As my old Cajun bait seller used to say, "I opes you luck.

"A trash pile up in SNV will hardly be noticed tastes barang no need to worry"
That sentence is a fragment of your imagination. Is there a complete English equivalent?

"it's part of the furniture."
I've no doubt you were able to establish yourself comfortably in all three. Twapper, it's one thing to be stuck in a groove and quite another to move in and furnish it.
