Today’s new word here at New Word Wednesday is one that I had no idea existed. Apparently it is a recognized branch of research and study. Who knew? Here it is:
GARBOLOGY: gar ba la je – the study of modern culture through the analysis of what is thrown away as garbage.
USAGE: The use of garbology has also caught the eye of many law enforcement and government agencies, many of whom use the practice to help thwart crime by searching for evidence of illegal activity.
Pretty cool, huh? So, be careful what you throw out as trash. It speaks volumes!
