Smoke Gets in Your Clothes
Ah. There's nothing like hitting a bar, tying one on, getting home, passing out, and not smelling like cigarette smoke. The NY Post reports that the number of complaints of illegal smoking in bars and restaurants continued to drop last year. There are also 200,000 fewer smokers in the City compared with four years ago. Gothamist Health can't believe that it's already been almost 3 years since the smoking ban went into effect but we're excited to just smell like gin and sour defeat when we leave the local pub.
Planet of the Grapes
Want to help make the world a better place this Earth Day? Are you sick of all of this pollution? Are you really lazy? Good. So are we. But there's a way to pitch in without going crazy: go vegan! Well not completely. Eating even one fewer hamburger a week may make a difference. According to a forthcoming report in Earth Interactions, the burning of fossil fuels used to make food and the non-carbon dioxide emissions that come with maintaining cattle also contribute to green house gases. So a vegan, and even a vegetarian diet, may be better for the environment than a carnivorous one. And just when you thought your vegan friend was preachy enough...

It would be nice if we could bring the drinks outside while we have a smoke, as cigarettes and alcohol go hand-in-hand (literally). It would also be nice if non-smokers would NOT STEAL THE SMOKERS' SEATS when we go outside. Those napkins placed over the drinks mean "don't steal our seats, we'll be right back."
I don't think vegans are really more likely than other people to be preachy. We're just more likely to be interrogated like murder suspects on a daily basis regarding our diets. Explaining over and over and over again why you are vegan could come off as preachy, I guess. I personally now just tell people to mind their own business, so I get to come off as bitchy, not preachy.
Now you just smell like a nazi douchebag with no sense of reason or fair play.
Smokers, enjoy having lung cancer outside thanks!
Smoking should be banned, except for in enclosed spaces specifically designed and designated for smokers, preferably filled with hydrogen.
For those who have asthma any exposure to this foul smoke, even outdoors is bothersome. Smoking should be banned in all public areas both indoor and outdoor.
Also annoying is these morons who have their flaming drug stick in their hand hanging out the window. Some of these morons even flick it out a moving car with out regard for bicyclists, pedestrians or the risk or starting a fire. Such morons should be arrested and charged with attempted arson.
We should bring smoking back to bars if for no other reason than to get the babies out.
Ace is right, I'm tired of such complaining. Bring back smoking, so I don't have to deal with people being in bars they shouldn't be in.
I just don't have much to say these days, but so it goes. Today was a total loss. I guess it doesn't bother me.
