When I was a kid, I used to have a runny nose all the time. By high school, I started carrying a tissue box, trash bag, and hand sanitizer around in my backpack.

... and then after a few days find it in their laundry :P

And on the other end of the spectrum are complete fungal encrusted fap socks like the guy that comes into my job (dry cleaning counter) with their entire wardrobe of work clothes, with 1-2 cigarette butts in each pant pocket that I have to wear gloves in order to detail his shit over a trashcan cause he's just that much of a needledick.

His job probably has smoking rules so he can't dispose of them properly, but still, empty your pockets motherfucker!

What kind of “work clothes” would you put cigarette butts in the pockets but then also require dry cleaning? Do you have an idea of where this guy works?

[–] IntrovertTurtle@lemmy.zip 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

He has the name of the place in a patch on his shirts, but I haven't seen him in a while (knock on wood) and don't remember. Only that it's some blue collar thing. Maybe electrical? Mechanical?

And he wants it all dry-cleaned ? He should go to the fluff-n-fold instead if it's just blue collar gear with the cover-alls and such.

I wish I had a fluff-n-fold when I was at the fish farm, as downtime in town was short. But, then again, some poor Laundromat would have to suffer all my fishy smelling gear!

Worst part is the last time he was in, he was bitching that we "ruined his shirts". After inspection, my supervisor realized that the only shirts we "ruined" had a particular business patch that was different from the rest, making us presume it was poor quality glue or some shit.

Oh and he always humble bragged that he was putting it on the company card each time. 🙄

People that don't do this are no better than animals, complete savages who can only ever be made to do right by the threat of legal punishment. They are bad members of society and we would be better off if they died.

That's most people in Japan, since trash bins are so rare

I do this always, and even for my spliff ends (we call the cardboard bit a roach here) in a pocket ash tray.

It really bugs me when I find a rather nice smoke spot, lovely nature area, and upon my third or fourth visit there is just rubbish everywhere.

Folks have cleaned the areas, only to find them in such a state in practically no time at all.

I wish people would take more responsibility with their rubbish. It literally takes only one pocket, or a small otherwise unused compartment in my bag. It's ridiculously easy to not litter!!

People just can't be bothered. Especially smokers: in my observations 95% or more smokers drop cig butts right where they stop smoking. And they do it absolutely automatically.

Me when I eat a piece of candy or mint and pocket the wrapper because it didn’t originate from the restaurant I’m seated at. xD
