I had to revisit this topic, because it happened again last night. I was in the lounge at the local Indian resort/casino. I sat down with my anejo Tequila, a beer, and lit up an Ashton VSG, and it was great. Then the woman at the table next to me starts with the hand waving in front of her face. "You know" she says, your smoke is blowing over here right into my face!" Immediately the woman behind me (who was smoking a cigarette) says to her "There's a non smoking lounge down the hall." And I say "That's right, that's why they have smoke free areas here, for people like you." Her sarcastic response was "Thanks, you're a real gentleman!" Well the sad end to the story is that it totally ruined the experience. I felt self conscious, and I let the cigar burn out, I finished the drinks in a hurry, and I left. What I should have said was: "You are an ass. 99% of this state is designated non smoking. I choose to come her for enjoyment. You have your own enjoyment, but that isn't good enough for you. This place has freedoms not just for you. The world isn't designed for YOU. So you think I'm not a "gentleman". Too bad." And then I should have blown smoke her way. I'm still steaming over this!
I'll go on record on saying obesity is more of a concern than smoking. fast food should be on the radar not smoking. fast food tax, not cigar tax!!! lol
That's sadly true... Maybe if they raised the tax on fast food, people would quit that too... It would generate a helluva lot more money than cigars..
its not about generating money. its about control.
*** her dude! Women love to make men fell like ***! I would have said to her, "You're not a lady".
"
That's a great comeback! I'm sorry I didn't think of it.
The next person who does this to me is going to get both barrels. But I don't want to be insulting. Just "fair"
