Do you know what. You had no right to get into my face. I wasn’t talking to you. I informed the person that threw a cigarrette put at my feet that it was called littering.What you have lung cancer? SO I sould have sympathy for you…That has nothing to

Until Cigarette butts get reclassified as a solid waste, it is not littering. So, in the first place you should have kept your mouth shut. And I am sure they threw it right at your feet. STFU ßitch.Ignorance, are you yet another person that is confusing the word with rude. You showed your ignorance of the law when you called the cigarette butts litter. You were rude when told the person that they were littering. See the difference.
“You showed your ignorance of the law when you called the cigarette butts litter.”Not this shit again…*SMACKS FOREHEAD*I can’t believe you’re giving the original poster grief for not being aware that cigarette butts are not classified as solid waste. I speak for myself, but when I see something on the ground that should be in a garbage can, I usually refer to it as litter, regardless of it’s proper classification. Or maybe your post was meant to just be a joke?What’s the deal Scott?
First of all, Scott, you’re a moron. Second of all if the butt was thrown at my feet I would have stopped to say something too, meeting their vulgar talk with words that would absolutely make everyone within earshot blush. As an ex-smoker I actually feel bad for smokers being pushed out of every building in the city but this still doesn’t entitle you to be an asshole and throw your butts everywhere. Put your cigarettes out and put the butts in your cigarette pack. It stinks you say, trust me when smokers come in from smoking they fucking stink anyway so don’t worry about reeking a little more. Appearance and personal consciousness certainly didn’t seem to an issue for the litterer either as they were in public with pink fucking pajama bottoms bottoms on sucking butts back in a group of ten people. And the fucking lung cancer thing, wtf, what the hell are they doing smoking with lung cancer?????? This is the type of person who should not be eligible to collect our tax dollars for treatment as this is clearly abuse of the system.Scott, I don’t know if you were trying to be clever but you came off as a complete asshole. See the difference?
I’m a smoker and I think it’s completely lazy and disgusting to toss butts. If I don’t see an ashtray or trash can, then I put mine down a sewer grate. How hard is that, Scott? Would you still refuse to see them as litter if you went to a beach somewhere and couldn’t find a place to lay your towel that wasn’t completely littered with filthy cigarette butts? Go to a beach in France, idiot! Get up from your towel to go ffor a swim and see how you feel when you discover one of butt stuck in your sweaty hair and another stuck to your elbow!
I wish I saw this take place…
