    Ashtray gets full and youre too lazy to empty it

    You sit in your normal smoking area and notice that you have a decent pile of cigars in the tray with one sitting precariously on another and is about to tip over. The OCD in you says that the ashtray should be empty and shiny clean. But, the lazy ass that you are says 'oh that's alot of effort besides i'm sitting here comfortably and I just lit my cigar. If I'm not cradling this cylindrical piece of art it will go out.'

    You have two choices. Do you sit there and let your ash fall, likely, on your lap and add to this large-ish pile? Or do you empty and clean your ashtray while your cigar sits lonely on the edge of the table?

    I was shocked to discover my tray posessing nothing but ash. The missus decided to remove my dead stick buds but left the ash cylinders. I thought the neighbor kid stole them again (not like i care that he does, but i'm aware of it) but she said it was her. Naturally, I was bugged that she removed the cigars but not the ash. Why the hell not?!?!?!?! Oh, the stresses in life, right?

    Yes, I'm the guy who's too lazy to clean the ashtray on a timely basis with a pile of various brands of cigars. Cigar bands are slipped beneath the ashtray and celophane wraps sit wrinkled on the table.

    Which guy are you? Go!

    Well if I did actually have an ash tray, I would walk, cigar in hand, over to the wood stove and hurl the contents of said ash tray into said stove where they could mingle with rest of the ashes in there. That's where I usually dispose of cigar buts as well as the ashes and dottle left in my pipe. I don't like ash trays though, and I don't own one.
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

    I'd be more concerned that my wife was smoking my cigar buts.

    I'm the OCD guy that either empties the ashtray when I'm done smoking or before I start.

    I leave my ashtray outside on the patio table and leave the cigars butts in the ashtray until we get a good rain or two. Once the cigars have swollen up and look like big dog turds I go over to my next door neighbors and scatter them around his front yard. He's a Red Sox fan!

    Usually around every 3-4 stogies I'll dump the tray. Just looks crappy sitting full on my back deck.

    Dump after every one, but then again I only use a small ashtray and it wouldn't handle more than 1 butt
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

    What a great topic!

    I'm guilty of letting them stack up - lol. My patio ashtray is one of these:
    So I can get away with it for a while... that is until the lid won't sit on top level and there's a couple nubs occupying the top.
