I went for a lesiurely stroll in my lunch hour, i work in a fairly nice area, it is a business park, and i was astounded by the amount of butt ends just strewn everywhere you walk

I walked past a couple of women smoking, one disgarded her half smoked fag end onto the pavement, still lit, she was too bone idle to stump it our first

AIBU to think people who throw their lit fag ends in the street are as bad as dog owners who dont pick up their shit?

Why cant you stump them out and put them in the bin?

smokers are scum and should be shot withair freshening substances - shame on you fag end droppers your rubbish scum toting smoking smelly cunts

Diet coke with a large meal for the sake of your teeth surely?

So you may want to fur up your arteries and have shiny white teeth, what's the problem?

Best not to judge people IME.

why not get one of these instead pingping

i'm sure your work couldn't object to this.

HecateQueenOfGhosts · 26/01/2009 18:36

roofer you don't really believe that, surely?

Yes, I agree, statistics can prove anything, but come on, only someone with fewer brain cells than the cigarette they smoke could think that you can put -

Tar
Arsenic
Benzene (an industrial solvent, refined from crude oil)
Cadmium (used in batteries)
Formaldehyde (used in mortuaries and paint manufacturing)
Polonium-210 (a highly radioactive element
Chromium - used to manufacture dye, paints and alloys)
1,3-Butadiene (used in rubber manufacturing)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (a group of dangerous DNA-damaging chemicals)
Nitrosamines (another group of DNA-damaging chemicals)
Acrolein (formerly used as a chemical weapon)
And about 60 other chemicals

Into your lungs and suffer no ill-effects?

PMSL!!

I smoke and even I don't believe it's harmless!!!

Can't even be arsed reading this thread incase it's full of the bollocks that's in that alst post

I smoke and I never throw my ends on the ground I always put them out either in the designated ashtrays on bins/walls etc or I stub it out on the ground and put it in the bin, when I know it's totally out obviously but if you stub and drag it up the pavement or a wall it rips the tip off anyway so haven't set a fire yet

mamadiva · 26/01/2009 19:42

Not you roofer obviously

Large Macd's and diet coke - because they are all diabetic!!!

(And before I get flammed for that, I am a diabetic who is not a twiggy.

Fag end droppers are the same in my mind as chewing gum droppers - both are disgusting.

When I was around 17 I was stood outside having a cigarette on the high street and I walked maybe 10 meters to the nearest bin to put my butt end in and an elderly woman came up to me and said she was expecting to tell me off for dropping it on the floor but wanted to say instead what a nice person I must be for not doing it!

Bit that she was watching me for so long really!
