That drives me crazy also! DH said it's ridiculous how many people throw their cigarette butts on the ground when he pulls them over for something. He always points it out to them and they're usually like, "But it's just a cig! That's not littering."
I have had 7 meetings in 2 days about one of my customers going to EDI. With all these meetings you would think this was the first time this has ever happened. It's been ridiculous!

Because butts stink up the car. Out of car, out of mind. It's one of the ways smokers try to convince themselves there aren't really that many unpleasantries associated with their addiction.
I do not want your garbage containing cancer causing chemicals on my lawn! It is disgusting.
That.is.awesome.
I get angry at litter bugs in general, I just do not understand it at all. My regular running route is just filled with trash along the road, 98% of it is recyclable plastic drink bottles. Why do people feel the need to throw their shit everywhere? Freaking slobs.
Throw cigarette butts out of their windows! I want to chase them down and cuss them out or at least get them fined for littering.
Do the ashtrays in cars not work or something?
What is making you irrationally angry today?
I smoke and I don't throw them on the ground. H calls me a hippie for it. Now if he's been outside for a while he'll come home with a pocket full of butts and throw them in the trash can
I agree with the cigarette butts, and general litterers. They make me angry.
And today I have been getting really annoyed by stupid people. I am normally far more tolerant than I am today. (Probably having something to do with the fact that I have been up since 2:45...)
One of our friends who is a cop, if he pulls someone over while they are smoking, he waits in his car until they throw their cigarette butt out the window and then writes them a ticket for littering.
I have an irrational anger toward people who, while shopping at the grocery store stop randomly in the middle of the aisle! No warning just bam! Stopped. They can't be bothered to move to the side, making me have to wait until they have perused the shelf.

I have accidentally and purposefully hit people with my cart who do this.

...don't know where they're going. I know that sometimes I go places that I'm unfamiliar with, but I get really pissed when people in front of me are going slow because they don't know when/where to turn.
My car has not cigarette lighter or ashtrays in it. It has a plug in that looks like a cigarette lighter, but it's for things like a GPS. It's a benefit of having a family friendly car.

When we bought our new car the "ash tray package" was extra! They used to come standard, but I guess not anymore. Cars still come with lighters though.
