At the very least, OP, dumping garbage by the road is against the law, so even if it's just regular garbage, you are reporting a crime regardless. Bonus: a cop has to deal with someone else's garbage.

It looks like Kelley's head photoshopped onto a stock image of a magician.

Edit: Yup, found the magician. Now to see if I can find where that headshot is from. It's definitely TOS era.

Edit 2: Couldn't find it with a simple reverse image search, so I looked for "DeForest Kelley smiling" and found the original image of him on this delightfully old-school web page dating back to 2001. (Bless him, the page is still active and has a counter and everything.) The image makes it clear that it is indeed from Star Trek, but he has on a unique formal looking tunic with a split collar, which should make it easy to narrow down to a specific episode.

Edit 3: Some reverse image searching on the full image led me to the ever-useful site getyarn.io, which provided a clip of the exact moment of this image, in which Bones is saying "a teddy bear?" It's from TOS S02E10, "Journey to Babel". Here's a longer clip with the amusing context:

It's not too late to abort Ken Paxton.

Daddy didn't give affection, and the boy was something that mommy wouldn't wear.

Dax would beat the ass of anyone putting dumbass words like that in her mouth.

Also: this console doesn't have enough rocks inside of it. And you call that a ceiling? I don't see a single loose girder in there!

Counterpoint: Vader was not a potted plant.

He's got SOOO many plates spinning! He's very busy being the driver of the entire plot of a great big saga. There's a lot on his mind.

What have you done today, Deanna? Eating a fudge sundae doesn't count.

To step out of the bit for a moment, when people criticize Troi, they're really criticizing the writing. This character is there to look good and rarely gets anything meaningful to do, and when she does, it's almost always redundant or superfluous to the situation. Marina Sirtis deserved so much better.

Never did like that guy. He seemed like a creep from the start, and I didn't ever find him funny.

I have always had an Android phone, while my wife has had iPhones. Whenever one of the kids got old enough to get their own phone, they inherited hers and gave her an excuse to get a new iPhone. (Meanwhile I just traded mine in.)

The unintentional result is that she can never find a charging cable or block for her phone because the kids keep taking them (and inevitably somehow breaking them), while I have a surplus of ways to charge my own. And also the kids' batteries are always low, because they can't figure out how to ration screen use with an old-ass worn out battery.

So everyone else in the house is always squabbling about who took the charger, while I rarely see my phone dip below 50%. They hate it SO MUCH when I point this out. I swear I try not to smirk when I do.

You have to actually have values to fail them.
