When I park my bike on the street it happens from time to time that inconsiderate boors use part of it as a garbage can, usually the bottle holder. It always leaves me with an ethical question: If I throw that garbage on the ground, am I littering? Have I now become the default owner of this garbage, and responsible for finding an appropriate place for it, or is it already litter on my bike and I'm just moving it to a new spot?

I guess the crying Indian had an impact on me, because I'll pick it up and put it in a proper trash can.
