Now, I don't smoke, but my parents do, and I say all the more power to 'em.
All I hear lately is people saying all smokers are bad, and suck, and should die. No one here was that bad with it, but I've seen people harass my grandma for smoking. She's badass and Irish though, so she's always had something witty to say back to the anti-smoking propagandists.
I heard that people are trying to ban smoking in cars. WTF?! They say it's "distracting". If smoking in cars gets banned, so should talking to passengers, cell phones, pets, and kids in cars. It's seriously ridiculous. Not smoking in pubs is just as stupid. Second hand smoke is offending the bartenders? Again, wtf? If you want to work at a bar, than you should be able to put up with second-hand smoke. If you can't, than sorry we can't hire you.
And btw, in regards to the first few posts, it seems like the non-smokers are bitching even more than the smokers.
