So, not 5 minutes ago while I was walking back to the dorm form anatomy lab I spotted with my not so keen eyes, a slight pandemonium

Some smart a** had been smoking on campus (an act that is prohibited) and since he apparently viewed the world as his ash tray he threw the butt into the street gutter that was full of dry autumn leaves...

There was a bit of a conflagration, under and around the parked cars fueled by the colors of autumn and the stupidity of a jack***

Luckily there was no one hurt, though it sounds as if he is going to get in a bit of trouble seeing as both the police and the local fire department showed up and there is at least one automobile that has been somewhat etched by flame.

I really wish people wouldn’t throw their cigarette butts anywhere they damned pleased

(smart money stamps it out in Australia, because fires, fires everywhere.)


I hope to offend everyone I can with my extremely expensive long term suicide sticks.

Also you campus prohibits any form of smoking.. what a hole.

I prefer to store them in half agape mouths of all the children I've poisoned to death with my evil second hand smoke.

However you get the business is of no concern to me...

I have always wondered how tossing butts onto the ground was never considered littering.

I'm telling you guys, just eat them. Everyone says cigarettes are bad for you but that's because they haven't unlocked the secret nutrion inside them. When you digest them, that's when all the vitamins and proteins are released.

No...not halloween. It's Official Frazzled Day.

But yes, it would be funny to dump a whole ash tray into a bag and give it to a child as a present.

Evil, but funny.

And aren't you supposed to be undermining said holiday since it represents the very institution that FAILFART is supposed to destroy/topple/reach-around?

I see. Well I'm going to smoke ten packs then go to bed, I guess this riveting discussion will have to find a way to survive without my inspiring presence.

At college when someone finishes a cigarette, the smoker yells "Star wars" and the last person to say it get the butt flicked at them. It can be irritating when you're not paying attention. It's not a fun game.

You should dodge the butt, then shout "special edition" and throw something back.

The best part is, that shinning example of a man, was at collage no less. Arnt you suppose to be "smart" if your in collage? He must of slept through.....well collage.

I turned my self cleaning oven on once...and didnt realize there was a dish towel inside (gotta love kids!) that was a bit freaky. You cant open the damn things once they start, so I got to enjoy smoke for about 10 minutes before it finally turned to ash. Good times

You should play that at the gas station with random strangers as the pump gas.

YO DAKKA DAKKA!

Rule #1: Be Polite.

Some of you are insulting huge demographics here. Be a bit more considerate.

I hate seeing people throw butts on the ground too - I don't care if it's a concrete footpath or a children's playground full of autumn leaves. The act in itself is littering. Anywhere that littering is illegal you'll usually find that the improper disposal of cigarette butts is punished even more harshly.

Do you mean college? Kinda hard to call someone dumb and then misspell college as an art project from 6th grade.
