    No, I didn’t. Why the animosity? Do you perhaps go around looking at cigarette butts thinking “Oh… those have the potential to become plastic waste?”

      I have on many occasions cleaned up the discarded cigarettes stubs of some inconsiderate shithead smoker, yes. But even without that, unless you live in Singapore, you should have enough awareness about whats going on around you to notice a pattern after a couple of years that you never see cigarette stubs in any form of decomposition, only the fibers coming apart.

        Congratulations, good Samaritan. Do you want a cookie for your efforts? I just hadn’t specifically thought about cigarettes, which I clearly pointed out in my original comment. If you’ve noticed, good for you. I hadn’t. But spare me the condescension.
