YOU make the choice to fill your lungs with gross cancer causing habit forming disgustingness. I CHOOSE To breathe the air. I come first. That is right smokers, suck it up and stop smoking near me. I have chronic ASTHMA and an immune disorder. I am SICK AND FUCKING TIRED of waiting for the bus and inhaling your nastiness, walking down the street and having it blown in my face by the wind or frankly being anywhere and having smoke near me. MY RIGHT to clean air is more important then your CHOICE to pollute yourself. Smoking outside is like drunk driving, you don’t just put yourself in danger but everyone around you. I could seriously go into a spontaneous asthma attack and die because of your stupid cigarettes. You want to kill yourself slowly ? Go for it. But don’t make other people suffer. —Clean air for all

Foolish. When you exaggerate arguments you lose credibility.
Smoking outside is not comparable to drunk driving.
Nobody cares about your fake “chronic” asthma.
Sounds like a YOU problem
Like Furious Poprah said: no one cares about your chronic asthma. In fact, most of the people you stand next to at the bus stop don’t give a sweet shit either. Meanwhile, you ingest all the belching pollution from motor vehicles but it’s the ciggie smoke that’s the culprit. I go out of my way to avoid people like you – whiny, tedious and always in crisis. Fuck that shit.
Wear a “No Smoking within 5 meters” tee shirt. (jk)
Breathing in someone’s used coffin nail fumes is no one’s idea of fun, but smokers take offense when reminded of this fact. Vent all you like, (p.i.) but understand that you haven’t got an icicle’s chance in hell of controlling anyone’s behaviour but your own. Stand away and upwind at the bus stops. Cross the street and use the sidewalk on the other side to avoid strolling smokers. You get the idea.
OP must be a real blast at parties….
So you’re okay with sucking in gas, diesel and other fumes but a little tobacco grosses you out. You must have been made queen in Trudeau’s drama class.
Attention whores come in all forms. The sickies are the worst. I’d rather gargle Javex & thumbtacks than listen to someone nasally whine about all their chronic ailments.
at least those automobiles 25 feet away have a use. Generally they don’t crawl up your nose either.
Smoke More; Die Faster. Please?
