Where there's smoke...

Those who know me, know that I'm very anti-smoking.

I couldn't give a toss about the damage it does to the people who choose to smoke.

What does disgruntle me, is the damage it causes to me.

I don't choose to smoke. I like my air as it comes. Fresh.

There's nothing worse than walking down a street and getting a faceful of cigarette smoke from someone around you. It's bloody awful, and is my argument for a total ban on smoking in ALL public places.

Another inconvenience are pubs which allow smoking. Don't you hate it when you get home from a night out, and your skin, clothes and hair stink of fags...!?

"What about drinking?!" I hear you cry. Well, here is my view.

The by-product of smoking is smokey air, and I am regularly subjected to a face full of it.

The by-product of my drinking is piss... fancy a facefull?

************************************

And of course, it wouldn't be my blog if a news story hadn't inspired me...

This one, from Reuters

"We were detained by one of the wealthiest countries in the world, yet it was only after four months in detention that they gave me cigarettes," says one of Saddam Hussein's henchmen.

Yeah?! So what!? I've gone without them for 19 years! Did they give you food? Water? I assume so! Jeez, they're wealthy because they choose not to give prisoners completely unnecessary items like cigarettes!

Fool...

Ha. And ha. Cobob - smoking is a tad more offensive than James Blunt. I'd never thought to use the bi-product of drinking excuse...I'll have to remember that. I agree with you entirely - people say they're a social smoker, which always makes me laugh as I can't think of anything more antisocial. Ban it from all places and perhaps more people will quit.
