UK smoking ban
Feb. 15th, 2006 07:00 amMPs vote to ban smoking in pubs and clubs.
To judge from the quotes in the article, smokers are not happy about this. However, I am, since I'm fed up to the back teeth of stale smoke and ash triggering off my perennial rhinitis. (That's like hay fever, except that you can get it at any time of year. Bad bouts tend to mean a day where I'm either sneezing violently -- sounds-like-gunfire-violently, leaves-you-knackered-violently -- or about to do so. Maybe I should wear a badge: "I won't complain when you blow smoke over me, if you don't complain when I blow snot over you".)
And of course the damn stuff then gets on your clothes and hair and bloody handkerchief so it still hits you when you get home ...
So to all FORESTers, sorry, but I'm afraid my gut reaction is not "Oh gosh, what a shame your rights are being infringed". It's more
YES! HAHAHAHAHA UP YOURS YOU SELFISH BASTARDS!!!!!
Ahem. I've wanted to post that for a while. :)
