I can help you quit. You just lay down on the ground and I'll drop this cinder block on your arms repeatedly. No need to thank me.

As a smoker you get used to it. It's simple, you walk outside of a bar or restaurant and have a smoke. It's actually cool, because then you go outside and meet all the other outcasts.

When I was just out in Cali, I didn't mind the fact that I had to go outside of a bar/nightclub to smoke (it actually made it easier to meet women) as much as I minded the fact that I had to wait in line to get back in.  That was pretty common in the gaslamp down in SD.  I've already paid my farging cover charge and these assclowns are trying to tell me I have to wait until someone else leaves before I can go back in.  farg that shtein!

You're confusing me for someone that has feelings.

The more laws they pass to make smoking more difficult the more I want to start smoking again.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

I'm not trying to call you out or anything, but where?  I live in NYC (Bronx) and I don't know a single fargin' bar where people still smoke inside.  Admittedly, I'm not out on the town at 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday nights, so I don't know what goes on everywhere, but all the same.  I see NO smoking in bars here.

The lawmakers who pass this shtein think nothing of driving their SUVs down to town hall, spewing more deadly smoke on the way to work than a smoker does in a month.  It's a witch hunt, plain and simple.  If you're so goddamned concerned about air quality, look at the farging cars and factories, not smokers. 

And really...who wants to go to a farging dive bar with no smoke?  You might as well go to the PTA sponsored after prom party.

honestly, it's mostly second hand(no pun intended). but i was in a corner bar in queens about 6 months ago and i was smoking in it, i was told by the bartender there was a cover. it was about 11pm on a wednesday. and the rest is only by the guy i was visiting then.

It's probably already occurred to you, but in the interest of protecting those involved, let's not post any actual names on an internet message board.  IM me instead.   :paranoid
