What does the title mean?

When I first visited Hawaii, I noticed that the word "Mahalo" is used frequently, quite often printed on the swinging doors of trash cans. However, it turns out that "mahalo" does not mean "trash" or "garbage." It means, "thank you." I was mistaken about this subtle point for only about an hour.

".ne." is a form of nerd-speak for "not equal to."

"Trash" means detritus.
