Cigarettes are bad MmmKay? And I've had enough. It's bad enough that I have to still smell them EVERY DAY on the man I'm married to CONSTANTLY even though it's something I chose to eradicate from my life. It's bad enough to inhale the toxic chemicals into your body even after seeing pictures like this:
It's bad enough that people who did the RIGHT thing and chose to not smoke or quit smoking long ago still have to smell it in what would be PLEASANT FRESH AIR. But what really grinds my gears now is seeing someone throw a cigarette butt (that "filters out all the chemicals and carcinogens" [keep in mind it doesn't get them all]) on the ground/out the window/anywhere outdoors. The chemical cocktail that seeps out of one cigarette butt in water KILLS HALF THE FISH IN THE WATER IN LAB TESTS. TRILLIONS of these poinsonous turds are ignorantly and carelessly discarded EACH YEAR. How long does it take one butt to degrade? Hmmm, Mixed reviews - some tests suggest NEVER, some say 12 years....
Wow, just WOW. What do you think it does to the birds that drink the water? What do you think it does to the mice and lizards that your kitty cats eat? EH? If you're a smoker reading this, how many animals have died from your carelessness? Unfortunately, I smoked for 8 years. I threw butts everywhere, I wish someone would've smacked me when they saw me do it and told me about the consequences. I never even thought about it till a couple years ago. I'm sorry fishies and birdies and all Gods creatures that I harmed. I'm sorry. I will start telling people to think twice when they flick thier butts. Will you? I hope so. If people won't do it for themselves, I sure wish they'd do it for the environment!
