You don’t realize how scarce trash cans there are until you start smoking.
That’s why I became enlightened and switched to vaping. Now I can stop worrying about trashcans and just pour chemicals straight into the ground (and into my own pockets). 256 IQ move right there, so smart it overflows back to 0.
A trash can will hold all kinds of inflammable material, so no. Fuck anyone who puts their cigarette butts in anything but an ash tray specifically made for this purpose.
I mean, if you dip it in water or make sure it’s not burning/warm to the touch when you throw it out, no harm can be done. I do agree with you about burning cigarette butts though.
If only people would do at least that. I saw it first hand, maybe that’s why it angers me so much. Prevented a forest fire by sheer luck of being at the right place, at the right time.
Hiked up a hill on vacation, chilling, having a great time, when my friend suddenly points at a trash can saying: Uh, is that thing smoking?
Middle of the woods, that trash can was tied to a fucking tree, too. We sacrificed the water we brought with us and notified whoever was to notify. One hour later and it might’ve been too late.
Dear smokers:
CIGARETTE BUTTS BELONG IN AN ASH TRAY MADE FOR DISPOSING OF CIGARETTE BUTTS, AND NOWHERE ELSE.
TAKE A PORTABLE ASH TRAY WITH YOU, IF YOU INTEND TO SMOKE WHILE BEING OUT AND ABOUT. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE.
Yeah man, those people are pieces of shit. I also extunguished many burning trash cans in my time.
That’s why, back when I used to smoke, I had to be 100% sure the cigarette was not even warm (by touching the end with my finger) before throwing it out.
Even then, smokers need to make it a habit to throw it into an ash tray. I do not give a single fuck as to how well it’s put out, it belongs into an ash tray.
Some things deserve a zero-tolerance policy, and this is one of them.
I just shoved them back in the pack after scrapping off the cherry if I needed to. It made it smell bad, but didn’t really change the taste of the other smokes.

When I was still smoking I had a pocket ashtray. Saw them in some random anime a couple of years back and then bought one.
I see piles of cigarette butts a foot away from trash cans all the time. Smokers are too lazy and too stupid to extend their arm before dropping them.
Piles of cigarette butts? What 1980s city do you live?
They don’t belong in a trash can either
Still better than the ground
