Cleaning up the city: Hong Kong removes “cum” from trash

If you’ve got an immature sense of humour (no judgement here), you probably did a little internal snigger when you first saw Hong Kong’s “Litter Cum Recyclables Collection Bins”. 

No cum in sight

However, it seems some concerned Hongkongers are not appreciating the joke, as the offending word is being covered up at rubbish points all over the city.

Thanks to One Mile at a Time for bringing this important social issue to our attention. Free the cum!
