So, I was smoking a cigarette....

I was too lazy to get an ash tray. I used a bottle of water that was half full to put them out. I decided to get another bottle out of the refrigerator and make a "tea to go" with it.

I got involved in my web surfing and put the cigarette out. Little did I realize that I put it out in my "tea to go!" I grabbed the bottle and took a sip of my tea seasoned with ash!!!!

That is the very reason I stopped ashing in cans and bottles. Couple of times with a mouth full of ash and you will find another alternative to the ash tray.

I used to just get up and go on the porch to light up. Maybe, I am better off doing that.

I don't know about cigarette ash, but ash from burning a fire is a good remedy to soothe a sour stomach. You can ingest some of the ash and it will cure nauseous feelings.

Unfortunately - charcoal and ash are carcinogens.

yeah, the porch is a good idea!

Even with the harsh winters we have up here in niagara falls, I still refuse to smoke indoors.

I've done that with my coffee mug. I have a huuuuge coffee mug. We smoke on the front porch...neither of us will smoke inside. Have a table in between the chairs on the front port, and an ash tray bowl that's somewhat the same size as my coffee mug. Sometimes I'll reach over towards the ash tray..and use peripheral vision to tap my butt...I've done it by accident over my coffee mug..and then reached over to pick it up and take a sip.

I've had to spill out and refill my coffee mug on more than a few occasions....

We were in a chopper and a guy was chewing. He's spit into an empty beer can. We had been flying for about 45 min. when someone dared the guy to drink the contents of the beer can. He said he would, but it would cost us $5 each.

What the hell......

He drank that can of spit juice and didn't blink. My stomach still rolls when I think about it. He said he couldn't stop at half... as it was one long slobber all stuck together.

:barf:

I hear you. I'd put myself on "ignore" if it was possible.

Here's a real nasty - when I was dating my husband, he was a listerine freak and we were both smokers. We had been using a root beer can to put our butts in and before we went to bed he spit his listerine into it. I woke up in the middle of the night thirsty, grabbed the wrong can and got a taste of cigarettes, listerine & root beer. It was years before I could drink root beer again and I almost broke up with my husband over that incident.... lol

Exactly. I almost did. I woke him up to bitch for that one... even though it was kinda my fault for drinking out of that one. Since then, I never drink out of anything open without sniffing it first.
