Seriously people? Cigs are legal. Still. Next time I see you covering your mouth n nose 10 feet away while I am smoking I am going to lose it. I purposely stay away from high traffic areas when I smoke and will move far away when I see someone coming. I understand it’s gross, stinky and unacceptable to you… but guess what? IT’S LEGAL!!! —The Woman Blowing Smoke in Your Face

So is covering your face also legal.
I don’t get your problem exactly..
It’s also legal to cover your mouth and cough and express yourself however you wish OP.
Lot’s of things are legal, doesn’t mean people don’t have the right to be offended by them.
Jerk
I’m no doctor, but I think their problem is SET syndrome, crayons
What does the T stand for in SET?
It will always be legal to be inconsiderate, so what?
T = Twat
I smoked up until 2 years ago. I’ve been where you’re at with this and unfortunately it sucks. You’re made to feel like a leper and a demon just for trying to enjoy a cigarette. To stand outside in the freezing cold or pouring rain because it bothers others. Its not fair, but that’s the way it is. If they cover their noses or whatever, just ignore them. Especially if you are considerate enough to try to avoid high traffic areas. Give me a smoker over a loud mouth, ignorant ghetto wannabe asshole and their crew anyday.
Whatever. (*Shrug*) Next time I see a smoker stinking up a public space, I’ll just drop a huge, greasy, back-cracking fart as I walk by. Tit for tat and all that. Besides..it’s legal.
It not fair that you have to go outside to smoke? That is a lambastable statement. I lambaste you, javagirl.
Just walk close to them; hacking and waving your cigarette around. They think you’re crazy anyway…
The get some Champix…
“Give me a smoker over a loud mouth, ignorant ghetto wannabe asshole and their crew anyday.”
If someone is both, is the universe in perfect balance?
Javagirl are you REALLY saying that it’s not fair that people who have serious asthma want you go to outside to partake in a CHOICE passtime that can do the asthmatic harm?
I like you. You’re clearly very smart…
I smoke. Not a lot.. about five a day. But that’s still smoking. I would never assume i have the right to marginalize those who get ill from secondhand smoke or even those who don’t LIKE it.
I couldn’t fathom something so fucking selfish and shortsighted actually..
OP you’re doing nothing wrong. Nor are the people who don’t like what you’re doing.. So don’t be such a nazi.
Just 15 cigarettes alters your DNA and continues to do so (information based on International Study led by British Researchers – look it up!) – I’m sorry you find it offensive that I place my health and well-being above your feelings…. In fact, fuck you and all you addicted morons for placing my health and those around you above your shitty addiction. Pick up a Scientific journal and learn what you are doing to not only yourself (as at this point I don’t pity you) but to the rest of us. JUST ONE SMOKE STARTS IT ALL… no wonder Cancer continues to rise. Think about it!
I don’t mean to get so riled up – I just cannot understand how with all the information out there, and the new studies that come out showing the clear link to the damage done to a person’s DNA that any person would pick up a cigarette is beyond me. It is not just the smoker who has increased their chance of getting Cancer – it is every other person that is exposed to it. But refocusing back to the original bitch – if you have every right to smoke (I know don’t get started) than I have every right to cover my nose and mouth!
Sodomy is legal. U down OP?
Justtolove…but they are so tastey !

How can you not want to try that ~;p
After 30 years as a pack-a-day smoker, I’m 18 months a non-smoker today! Damned straight I’m celebrating.
Do I believe “smokers’ rights” to be a valid bitch? Sure, right up there with the ‘rights’ of all people who engage in addictive behaviours to continue with those dangerous addictions to their heart’s content. Go for it & Darwin Award to you.
I’m ashamed to admit that it took me so long to quit, but that’s addiction for you.
It should be illegal everywhere but in a special little place like a jhonny on the spot only for smokers. These could be placed at different locations for you to enjoy your own second hand smoke. Do you realize how much you stink? Have you ever been on a bus next to a chain smoker? You can barely breathe it stinks so bad. And when their clothes get wet it’s 100 times worse than a wet dog. Ugh.
we have done this bitch a million times, and the wind blowing, between two parties, will whisk any oder away before it can reach the poor,delicate little noses. even a modest breeze, will do, and yes, the math was done to back this up, don’t have it just now, but your brain thinks it smells something that isn’t there. same as if i told you that there was dog shit on you, you would syart to smell it shortly. ahhh, the mind fucks you over, all the time.
I’ll bet you’re a smoker life sucks and most likely a chain smoker, and that is why you cannot smell how bad you or any other chain smoker smells. Your nose is too accustomed to smelling that reek. Ahh, the mind fucks you over again and again.
I prefer smoking in public bathrooms. Much nicer and warmer than the street.
Well, I’m a non/ex smoker and I couldn’t care less about the smell of smoke for a total of 10secs while walking past a smoker. Fuckem OB, enjoy that smoke, you payed a lot for them, it’s legal, it’s your right and there’s nothing they can do about it besides act like an entightled ass. Why would you care what a complete stranger thinks about your smoking?
“you shouldn’t smoke”
“well it’s legal and my right to… so you shouldn’t bitch”
“well it’s legal and my right to… you smoking bastard”
“judgmental dickhead”
“I’m rubber, you’re glue”
“sticks n stones”
“huh, stoned? you holding?”
“uh, I said stones… and yes.”
“can I have a toke?”
and everyone’s happy.
wheels, yes i am, and i don’t give a fuck for assholes walking by me and giving me a stink eye. no one asked them to even come within smelling distance of my smoke, and no one ever will. these idiots just take it upon themselves, to be smoke nazis, and fuck you to anyone who quits, and preaches bullshit, by the ton about how much better their life is. i know a lot of nons, and they are just as sick, and miserable as smokers are.so to those that don’t, good for you, now fuck off and let me kill myself by smoking, if i want. and you do not have to invde my personel space either. so, get the fuck away from me, and all other people who choose to smoke.
Sodomy is legal. U down OP? ROFLMAO!
You only have to quit to smell your skanky cigarettes and smelly clothes. It’s disguusting to those of us who have allergies to smoke. And especially so if it’s in a bus shelter. You work at the hospital by chance?
We don’t have to invade your space, you invade ours. Who has never noticed how smoke will always waft over to non smokers? Go figure. Johnny on the spot for smokers, and I don’t mean bus shelters.
Lambasting is fine. I, however, would prefer a good, solid porking…..
javagirl, you wanna get porked, come see the suckster then.
I respect that, javagirl. You couldn’t handle it though, with your decereased lung capacity. Also, it affects the, ah, taste factor.
