Most definitely. Smoke outside. I don't want to be anywhere near it.

*rubs hands together evilly, hoping to start a fight*

Maybe ya'll should start smoking. It'd probably help alleviate the tight-ass sydrome (oh burn. let's fight )

Okay. We'll fight, then. (How have you been??)

I really don't like people that smoke, mostly because they are inconsiderate about their habit. Not everyone wants to share the joy, guys.

Disclaimer:

I don't feel all that strongly about this issue, but I am always up for a good debate.

As a rule, I wouldn't date a smoker. I'm sure the majority of them are nice people but cigarette smoke does tend to stay with a person. Sharing a kiss (or something else) isn't for me, if the lady is a smoker.

Sorry.

hey, I agree. My brother smokes 3-4 a day and his girlfriend said she won't marry him unless he stops smoking. I wouldn't want to kiss a smoker either, but luckily for now I'm single and only smoke once a month... BTW you guys should be proud of me. I've actually made it passed the 1 month point without a smoke.

But as for a public area... It's a public area and that should entail sort of a freedom of the area. And like I've said before, no smoker is forcing you to breath it, that's just bs IMO.

Thanks for ruining the mood, Toothie. We were trying to have a violent argument here.

HEY!! You better watch it, Tooth Boy!! You are really asking for it!

You may just force me to light a cigarette (ick) and blow smoke in your face just for fun! HA!

The issue I have with smoking is when people do it inside. There is nowhere to escape from it. You know, the walls kinda trap it in. Weird how that works.

IF you can find one, Insolent Creature, it will be turned on you instead. Do not threaten The Mob Queen. It is something you will live to regret.

I actually really like the fact that it is against the law to smoke in restaurants in my state. They just passed the law a few months ago.

Passed the law? You mean like someone passes the salt. Were they at a table (non-smoking of course) and the guy to the left passed the law to the person at the head of the table.

I understand nothing of this "passing laws". I assume you mean that a team of sportsmen passed the law to each other, to prevent the other team from gaining possession. Please explain.

I hate you.



Why does it not surprise me that the idea of passing laws is foreign to your tiny brain?? No, I am not shocked.

Could you pass the law, along with the salt please, dear? Thank you.

How about an anvil?? I could pass that. Right on top of your head.

An anvil is heavy. You'd probably drop it on your toes. But, being the altruistic guy I am, I'd take you to hospital...provided you gave me the cab fare.

I think you do need a hospital. Get a doctor to put some oil on your jaw, it certainly needs an oil, seeing as how dry it must be from talking.

Are you trying to imply something not nice, Dentist?? Should I have you killed now, or let you wonder?? I hope you get ill from a passing smoker. HA! (not really, cause that wouldn't be funny)

Sounds to me like you guys need a nice Salem Menthol. I've got a whole box in my room if ye need.

I don't think smoking is banned in restaurants here... in fact, I know it's not. Basically anywhere you go they still ask "smoking or non". When we need a fix and the month is passing slowly, we just go to Village Inn or IHOP. They've got some good second hand smoke. The Swing club downtown is the same way... but mostly you just go there to dance.

I agree with angeldust. smokers should smoke outside when they are in public places, and as seven of nine was saying about people blowing smoke in babies faces, well i just wanna say that kids don't need to exposed to that stuff. we are trying to teach our kids not to smoke. but its kinda hard to do that when we have a whole city smoking everyday.

You mean: Smoking when other people are in radius of 50 metres bad.
Thus, smoking bad.
