Because we will see them in millions
- ddingus 8y agoLike cigarette butts
- pronouncedGod 8y agoWhen I smoked I used a small “pocket can” that was shaped like a trash can to hold my butts until I came back around to a proper garbage can. I then switched to non-filters and, even though they lack the cellulose filter, I still used the can. I hate seeing cigarette butts everywhere. It might be because my first job in high school was sweeping the parking lot.
- ddingus 8y agoMan I contributed to that mess. Did not care. Lol, I often will pick them up today. I do not smoke now. Good on you for the can, back then.
- pronouncedGod 8y agoI would pick them up these days, but in my part of the country it’s almost dangerous to touch anything from a stranger that could be personal use. Rampant IV drug abuse and exploding hepatitis cases. It might be paranoia, but I don’t touch anything that could be personal use.
- ddingus 8y agoGloves are what I use. With you otherwise.
- chrisseaton 8y agoFine, but crying and hot messes are dramatics not facts.
- libraryatnight 8y agoI thought it was just adding some style/personality to the writing. Rather than saying "We were disappointed by the messy internals." It hardly felt dramatic.
- PascLeRasc 8y agoThere are actual facts in the article and a summary of facts at the bottom. Most humans find a list of facts a bit boring to read so we like to spice up our language and use metaphors and hyperbole.
- chrisseaton 8y ago> we like to spice up our language and use metaphors and hyperbole Yes I know - dramatics.
