detergent

Found some old laundry detergent in the garage that isn't good anymore. How would you dispose of it, just throw it away or dump it down the sink?

Just throw it away unless you want to give the sewer rats a bubble bath.

I agree, take it to a 1/2 way house. Even in a solid lump, if you break it into chunks and throw boiling water on it, it is still good.

Put it in a big water fountain outside somewhere. Suds will form, (maybe) and fun will be had by all except the authorities.
