Hey, asshole in traffic in front of me!
I know you’re not going to believe this, but I don’t give a
flying fuck if you smoke! I am not out to get you and take
away your precious right to light up. I just don’t care.
Bbut you know what? Be a grownup about it. Act like a
fucking responsible adult, and keep your damn cigarette butt
in your damn car ashtray instead of tossing in on the
ground like a pathetic teen rebel without a clue.
The world ain’t your ashtray.
Amen.
I remember a while back when I was in Southern Alberta in the middle of a fucking drought I was behind some ass clown that flung his butts out the window.
Even neglecting the littering idea, they DO start fires, genius.
Fucking idiots.
Too long for a bumper sticker butt it’d make a nice Hallmark.
That’s what I hate about cigarette smokers–they treat the world like it’s their ashtray.
We had a huge debate about this a while back. Believe it or not, some smokers (fortunately not all) just don’t get it. They think it’s “no big deal”, or something like that.
So, if butts aren’t litter, I guess my gum wrappers aren’t either! I mean, why should they be? They are “no big deal” either. So let’s all start tossing out gum wrappers, and little bits of paper out the window!
And, at least gum wrappers aren’t actually on fire.
amen to the first post! my thoughts exactly! fuck dirty smokers!
heres one for ya: was riding my motorcycle one day. i was stopped behind some slob at a stoplight. he threw his dirty butt out the window, still hot and smokin’. i must have been having a bad day or something, but i kinda snapped (i really hate smokers anyway) and rode up next to him, bent down and picked up his butt and tossed it in his lap. the light turned green and i motored off on my way, leaving this idiot fishing in his crotch for a smodering coffinnail! the look on his face was classic!
use yer fuckin’ ashtrays, you yellow-teethed, bad-breathed, cancer-ridden, camel-buck-savin’ afgan ass feltchers!
Ouch.
So, possibly causing an accident or burning someone’s balls is justified cause he’s a dirty smoker? Nice.
Why didn’t you just shoot him? I’m mean, for God’s sakes, he actually threw his butt out the window!! He should be shot, or at least put in prison for the rest of his life…
:rolleyes:
IMHO yes, that would justify burning his balls.
I doubt it would cause an accident since he was reportedly stopped.
<sigh>
So now we are at the point where minor littering is justification for causing injury to someone?
Hey, gatopescado – Rest assured that if you had tried that stunt with me I would have chased you down and kicked the shit out of you. That’s not a threat, and I’m not saying that to sound tough or whatever else, I’m just stating a fact that might give you some perspective for the next time you think about doing that.
I can fully understand people getting pissed off when smokers litter. Throwing a lit butt back at them is a completely different story.
Really? You honestly believe throwing a butt in his lap is justified?
What if he didn’t notice and drove off? What if there was a child in the car (I know, second-hand smoke…)?
I’m not a smoker, and I too think tossing butts out of a moving car is stupid and inconsiderate. But such a response is IMHO even worse.
So <sigh> all you want - just hope nobody attacks you the next time you do something stupid.
Personally, I don’t consider that an attack. Thats giving them their own garbage back.
If they don’t like it, they’d be welcome to try and “attack” me.
Ok, tough guy. Sorry to bother. No point in continuing. Maybe WWF is on TV.
bernse – If you threw a unlit butt back at them, I’d agree.
You are risking injury if you throw a lit butt in someones car. Yes, I know that butts can cause fires. But the overwheleming percentage of the time they don’t. Thrown a lit cigarette at someone has a very good chance of burning them or setting their car on fire.
Note that I am not defending this nasty habit – People shouldn’t do it. However, putting them at risk is worse.
Sorry but I’ve been hit a few times on my motorcycle by assholes throwing butts out of thier windows. You don’t think that can’t be dangerous? I’ve been hit in the chest, good thing my jacket wasn’t open so it didn’t get caught in my shirt or something. I for one would do the same thing if I ever have one stick to me.
Smoke all you fucking want but DON’T fucking throw your butts at me.
Agreed 100%, EtH. I’d be pissed as all hell if I was hit by a butt too – that’s kinda my point here. Doesn’t matter if on a bike or if sitting in the car. Sure, to some degree the person who tossed it might “deserve” it more than the biker, but really neither one is accpetable.
But if you notice, gatopescado said that he went and picked it up off the ground, after the driver had tossed it while he was stopped. I seriously don’t think the butt hit him.
I too ride a motorcycle and I have been nailed with lit butts several times. Thats a hell of a lot more dangerous in my book than a lit butt on your lap… especially if it hit your face or got into your jacket (luckilly none of which have happened to me).
Have I ever thrown a butt back at anybody (lit or otherwise)? No.
I have however pulled next to people that litter, cut me off (on my bike that can be fatal) or do otherwise illegal shit and tear them a new one. Not often, but I have.
I believe that if people are acting like assholes they deserve to know it. Then you get people that only mutter to themselves and never do a damn thing about it.
Am I a “tough guy” as our new friend leander put it? Absolutely not. Actually, I don’t like confrontation very much.
Do I stand up for myself? Your damn rights I do.
BTW - leander, I’m not going to drag out a pissing match with your little “WWF” comment which was unnecessary, but I want you to know my favorite shows are Frasier, Boston Public and Law and Order.
Like I said, no point in continuing (with you). But thanks for coming out, tough guy.
“Get your paws off me, you…”
<sigh>
I’m just jealous of gatopescado for having the guts to do something I want to do (not just cigarette butts either; I would love to throw people’s garbage back in their faces when they just toss it out the window). And it’s not just bikers who get the butts; I’ve been driving with the windows down on my car and got someone’s flung butt in my car. Another real gem that I see smokers doing - dumping the contents of their car ashtrays out on the pavement of parking lots. Yeah, that’s where that goes. :rolleyes:
(ps - bernse, I was just talking with some people about the dry conditions around Kananaskis, and I mentioned how smokers almost always cause the brush fires - to a smoker! Open mouth - insert foot. :))
On the plus side, I have found that, in unfamiliar places, I can tell how long the wait at a stoplight is by how big the pile of butts on the ground is.
Check it out, it really works…
