At least that’s what some New Yorkers are going to attempt to do at Times Square before the big apple drops on New Year’s Eve.
The city’s Department of Sanitation and the Times Square Alliance will set up shredders for an hour on December 28th so that people can shred everything from photos of ex-lovers to bad report cards. There’ll even be recycling bins for dumping those annoying CDs and fashion disasters.
