Precycle

Declining the use of a recyclable item (like a shopping bag) in lieu of an obvious alternative.

The checker asked if me if I wanted paper or plastic but since I was buying a six-pack with a handle, I told him I'd rather precycle.

precycle

the act of collecting cans and bottles from the recycling bin before the recycling truck takes it away. (for the deposit)

The rustling at 6:00 AM was just the precycling going on at the back of the building.

precycle

Signs at the UMBC dining hall on the tables. Shows a man holding up two cans (potentially with food in them, but one can't see the labels) staring directly at the camera/the viewer.

It supposedly means to buy things with less packaging. However, someone already invented a word for that "reduce", one of the 3 R's (the other two being reuse and recycle.)

Damn, that precycling dude freaks me out.

I'll precycle you!

Precycle

Curbing the implusive urges of consumerism that bombard you everyday because you won't turn off the TV and stop getting brainwashed.

Precycle: Do you really need another fucking piece of crap from wallymart that will trash up the planet in 2 months when it breaks or do you think you MAY be able to live without it?

Precycle

Reading someone else's magazine before the owner even knows it's arrived.

My neighbor's magazine came to my house by accident, but I'll precycle it before I bring it to his house.

Pyrocleptic

Someone who steals lighters. They light their smoke and then put your lighter into their pocket.

I wanted to smoke one but Amanda went pyrocleptic on my lighter again. She is such a hobo.
