Smokers, I'm putting you on alert: Stop blowing smoke in my face.
Look, I have no problem with smoking. My brother smokes like a chimney. He's actually this guy.
But if you're going to smoke, have some basic human decency.
I was sitting out on the Steps Thursday afternoon, basking in the sun, when a guy wanders over to say hello to someone sitting next to me. Of course, he's smoking a cigarette and decides to puff a cloud of tar all up in my grill.
This should be a criminal offense, punishable by pillorying.
Now all you smoking apologists are probably saying, "Oh, don't be so whiny, it's just a little smoke—probably wasn't even on purpose." OK, well next time you're outside sucking carbon fumes into your poor little lungs, I am sure you won't mind if I stand three inches away from you and direct a malodorous cloud of flatulence at your face.
