在“什么都不买”的自由世界里拒绝“买买买”(7)

“A lot of people were like, ‘Totally, I’m interested,’” Ms. Lightman said.
She left a bucket outside her building, so members could come by and scoop it out. The dirty water was such a hit that she began offering it regularly, periodically announcing, “It’s fish-poop water time!”
Within hours, her neighbors would come and take it all.

Inside the World of Buy Nothing, Where Dryer Lint Is a Hot Commodity 在“什么都不买”的自由世界里拒绝“买买买”
The New York Times
David Stahl did not need leftover pickle juice because, really, no one needs someone else’s used brine. But a few months ago, he decided to ask for some just to see if it was possible, posting a request to an Upper West Side chapter of Buy Nothing, a hyperlocal Facebook group.
大卫·斯塔尔（David Stahl）不需要别人用剩下的泡菜汁（pickle juice），因为，说实话，谁会想要别人用过的盐水呢？但几个月前，他决定去问一问，看看有没有可能得到一些，于是便在Facebook的本地邻里群“什么都不买”（Buy Nothing）上西区分部发了帖子。
leftover
表示“剩下的，留下的”，英文解释为“A leftover part of something is the part that has not been used or eaten when the other parts have been.”如：some leftover chicken from last night"s meal 昨天晚餐剩下的一些鸡肉。
