The filters taste funny.

it pisses me off when people toss that crap out of their car. I think my next goal is to get an additional tax of $5 per pack

Does it hit the sign you're holding?

I only smoke when I drink, and don't drink and drive...so I have no answer for you on this.

They aren't cigarette butts... they are rabbit tampons.

There are laws against littering.

It's a personal freedom issue. They don't believe the government has the power to force them to change their personal habits, just to make your life a little nicer.

A pile of cigarette filters by the curb and the occasional wild fire are a small price to pay for personal freedom.

A few strokes of the rattan, Singapore style, would soon put a stop to this asocial practice.

People who think like this should be forced to sign an agreement to pay for any damage caused by morons tossing their cigs.

You are a goober, you ate my brains!

I agree!

Compared to the farming methods of tobacco producers, the butts are a extremely minor environmental issue... Honestly, as far as protecting Earth... if you walked and dropped the cigarette, instead of driving and not throwing it out your window, I'm sure you'd be doing a lot less harm. Not justifying littering... I'm just sayin.

People tried throwing them in their backseats, it caused too many fires.

well that could be said about all farming

The idea of this being a "personal freedom" issue is almost too dumb for a response. One has to be ten levels of stupid to think of it that way.

How about my personal freedom not to have brush fires delay my drive to work - which costs me time and money?

Put your butts in an ashtray, you fucking morons.

It's quite simple; that's what our parents did. The earth's a big place. They bio-degrade. Spend your time wringing your hands and worrying about more important stuff.

i do it because since they outlawed smoking in public the ashtrays done disappeared. car ashtrays are also on the outs. i have a pocket ashtray, but fuck that. i hate carrying ashes in my pocket. that shit smells worse then the smoke.

though, honestly, i usually just flick the cherry off and pocket the butt until i stop somewhere with a trash can. if i don't it's usually because i'm in a shit mood. deal.

Always a great excuse.

Spend your time learning how to throw them away properly.

And yet you did.

The state of Florida used to pay workers to pick up cigarette butts and other litter, and fight wild fires, but they took Jenn's advice and laid off 1/3 of the work force. Now cigarette butts pile up and fires get put out when they get to it.

Are you not familiar with the definition of the word "almost"?

Workers have nothing to do with whether or not some idiot can exercise enough self-control and discipline to put their cig butts in the right place, rather than whine about "personal freedom".

You obviously do not understand the dynamics of a Jenn thread. Lurk a little before posting.

Not the issue of this thread. Please stay on topic.

There aren't any anymore because of frustrated dictators and obnoxious intolerant cretins.
